When you get IPL, does your skin initially look saggy and older?

Question

When you get IPL, does your skin initially look saggy and older? I had IPL a month ago and I swear my skin has aged about ten years.

Jeffrey S. Rosenthal, MD · Answer

IPL  or intense pulsed light targets pigmentation: brown from age and sun and shrinks blood vessels..It also shrink pores but will not create laxity in the skin.

Arianna Sholes-Douglas, MD · Answer

IPL, also called Intense Pulsed Light, is an all over skin rejuvenation treatment. It is used for vascular veins, sun damage, and to stimulate collagen production which helps to tighten your skin. I would suggest that you contact the office where you have the treatment done.
