Horrible! She burned and scarred my arms with her IPL machine. She clearly did not know how to use it! The pain was so horrible and this happened on December 29, 2020. Why didn't she do a patch test 24 hours before?

Has your skin evened out? I recently had a full face IPL treatment for sun spots on my cheeks and now I have those marks on my forehead..the clinic is telling me it's a process and takes time.. well my cheeks abs forehead are healing I'm guessing as they should but my forehead looks like arms after a the dark skin came off.. any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

No one should have ever done IPL on you considering your skin tone. IPL *will* cause burns on someone with tanned skin or a naturally darker skin color. Whoever did this was very irresponsible!

One look at you, and they should have skipped the IPL. Your skin is tan. You should not perform IPL on tanned skin (even sunless tanner) or darker skin tones.
