You would need to be seen in person to say for sure, but in the photo I see some acne scarring and not a lot of photodamage. Given that, I would likely recommend starting with a series of microneedling treatments.However, the bigger question is- are you trusting your face to someone you...
Dark flaking areas after treatment is a normal reaction. It is always best to return to treatment provider for the most accurate opinion.
Thank you for your question. IPL is not the appropriate device to remove your tattoo and it definitely has the potential to burn and scar you. There are excellent tattoo lasers available these days and one like the Picosure or Picoway would be ideal for your situation. Best of luck!
