Am I too tan for IPL? (photos)

bug6813
Hello, I'm a Latina with a light olive skin tone, but I was informed the IPL is not good for women of color. I have sun spots I would like corrected and I heard great things about IPL. My question is if I'm too tan for this procedure? I provided pictures with normal lighting and low lighting.
