Should I continue IPL for freckle removal? (photo)

Asked By:Roxin80

Hi there, I went for my first IPL treatment for freckle removal 2 days ago.I have fair skin with lots of freckles.The dermatologist was unsure about IPL and kept saying it all will be very dark. I already knew all that because I had done my research. But after the first treatment only 10-20% of my freckles got dark (see the pic).Is it because she brought the strength of IPL lower? My next treatment is in a month. Do I continue IPL or do fraxel or chemical peel?
