Wanted to Remove Age Spots/brown Spots. Got Burned Instead - Michigan

I signed up for a 5 sessions Fotofacial too, CA. My main problem was uneven skin tone, some age spots and acne scars. The first 3 treatments I didn't see much diff except for some flaking here and there. But for the 4th & 5th treatment, the doctor increased the setting and I did see result, especially after the 5th. My skin tone is more even and most of the dark spots are gone. In between my treatments, I had one breakout (I believe due to work stress) and the doctor was very good where he prescribed me free medications (oral & creams) for my acne. For the first time now I actually love my skin. I noticed after doing IPL, my skin is less oily.

by the way, I paid $980 for 5 sessions

Sue them!

I had had Photofacials before, with okay results, but recently, I had the same problem as you did. Now I have several scars, like yours, and they look really dark red and shiny. In my case, they look like a stripe on one side of the face and, on the other, they look closer to what you have: round, dark scars. It's been three months now and they haven't disappeared or faded. I'm SO disappointed and angry with this. The clinic keeps telling me it's going to fade away with time, but I doubt. Good luck. I don't recommend this treatment anymore.
