After IPL I Have Two Burn Blisters and Dark Marks That Never Existed - is This Normal?

Your photo shows greater skin reaction and redness than typical after IPL.  This will likely resolve but absolutely should be evaluated by your treating or supervising physician where the IPL was done to insure proper management.

You actually have a fairly normal, although maybe a little exuberant, reaction to an IPL treatment. The good news is it will go away, but you can minimize this by making sure you are on an appropriate skin care routine for the condition you are treating. Most of these will contain antioxidants and other products that will help minimize the redness or the exaggerated response you have – so if you are not on a skin care routine, go somewhere where skin care is as important as the procedure itself.

We try to avoid blisters with IPL but they can happen and your provider needs to be notified. Protecting the area with Aquaphor and avoiding any sunlight whatsoever are both very important. You stand to see great improvement in your skin from this treatment as long as you don't pick, peel or get sun exposure.
