I was super scared after reading so many conflicting views about IPL. Well, I am not scared anymore, I am stoked!! As a side note, I am an esthetician, but I have not practiced in several years.
Info on me:
32 year old female, Sicilian and N. Italian descent, dark auburn hair and hazel eyes. Never tanned outside but tanned in a bed on and off in my twenties.
Skin Regimen:
clear all natural cleanser, vit c and hyluranic acid serum, korres under eye cream, elta md tinted spf, temanu oil.
Reaction:
It was a little more painful then I expected. The 'orange peel' skin people talk about did happen to me but it only lasted 24ish hours. My skin was warm for 6 hours and it was never red or tender.
I will update with future sessions but so far I AM LOVING IT!!!
