I had IPl treatment done on my neck for Poikiloderma. A discoloration, mostly brownish and some faint redness. I had the treatment as I did not particularly like how it looked and with sun exposure, even wearing sunscreen, it would look worse.
I found the treatment to be both effective and lasting. I had it done 3 years ago. I always wear an SPF of at least 15 on my face and neck, and I do mean daily! I was told that if I did not the condition could return. I had 3 treatments total. There was very slight discomfort as I used a numbing cream prior to the treatments and a nurse iced each area as the doctor went along the affected area.
I would have to say I found no "cons", only "pros"! Very happy with the result.
