When will I see IPL results for redness and veins?

September 18, 2015
Asked By:regularturtle in New York, NY

I have lots of redness, broken capillaries and crazy hot flushing all around my nostrils, cheeks, neck and chin. I've been told it's because of rosacea and keratosis pilaris, I'm 17. I had my 2nd IPL treatment two weeks ago but my face looks the same from before I started IPL. When will I see obvious results? Also, the dermatologist doesn't laser just under my nose, the lower bit of the nostrils despite the veins being worse there. Is there a reason for that?
