IPL treatment(s) for my dark spots and hyperpigmentation? If so, how many treatments? (photos)

sevenseas7
I'm a 27 year old female who takes good care of my skin, but am experiencing some dark spots and hyperpigmentation around my T-Zone area, especially my forehead. Sometimes these areas can be extra dry and flaky during winter, but also have large visible and dark blackheads. Also my skin has such a dull and lifeless complexion lately. Would a set of IPL treatments be most beneficial for me to combat these problems? Any other suggestions would be very much appreciated! Thanks! Hollie
