Answer: Bad IPL from China There are many non-FDA approved devices like certain IPLs being introduced in America because they are cheaper. Just because IPL machines can be approved, does not mean that all machines out there are tested for safety and efficacy. So, as you have seen, very bad things can occur from untested and unlicensed devices. If your follicles are still active, meaning they are capable of regenerating hair, then you can use Latisse. But if you have pain and sensitivity I would probably wait to use Latisse for a bit. If the follicle has been so damaged it cannot grow a hair, then Latisse will not work and will not help, unfortunately.
