What Kind of Anti-aging Benefits Does PDT Have if IPL is Used Instead of Blue Light?

September 1, 2010
Asked By:Gabb in LA

My dermatologist suggested PDT using IPL instead of Blue light to get rid of sun damage in my face and chest. Will that make my sun spots go away? Will it improve my skin texture? What other benefits does the treatment have? I have broken capilarities and my skin is pretty rough and dry. Thank you so much!!!!
