Removing facial veins requires high-powered light energy that must be calibrated precisely to the pigment in your skin and the deoxyhemoglobin in your unwanted veins. An at-home system can’t do that. They don’t have enough power or precision to remove facial veins and you could end up damaging your skin or even your eyes. When it comes to your face, don’t take chances with risky procedures because you want to save money. While I understand that budget is a concern for most people, your board-certified dermatologist should be able to work out a payment plan that allows you to get the effective and safe treatment you want in a way that works within your limits.
Thanks for your question, but you will be better off saving your money. Real LHR devices can be extremely dangerous in the wrong hands, but need the power to be effective.

IPL will have no long term effect on your skin's ability to tan. It will act as it always has. Please remember, there is no such thing as a healthy tan. Wear sun block every day.
The answer to your question has not yet been clinically studied. Because you had the InstaLift first, I think it is best to wait a while to allow swelling to resolve and the sutures to anchor in a bit. Your Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment affects the surface of your skin and won’t bo...
Thank you for your question and posting a picture. It looks and sounds like you might have Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH). It may fade on its own over time. Topical fading creams may also help. We have been very successful using the PicoSure laser with the FOCUS and / or Flat Lens...
It looks as if there is some PIH (post inflammatory hyperpigmentation) post IPL. This will typically fade over time (but it can take 6-12 months or longer). The best is to sun protect with SPF of at least 30 (I prefer a physical block with zinc/titanium) and reapply. Also, it may be good to...
