2nd IPL - didn't feel any stinging at all, no brown spots

A Year Later

Not worth it. The original brown spots went, but now I am left with 'new' ones that the laser brought to the surface and they look worse. I have been using 30 SPF and an Olay cream that is helping but I need foundation every day, something I never bothered with before. Wont be using lasers again.

4th Treatment

I asked the therapist to increase the strength as I had no reaction last time. She put it to '26' if that means anything to anyone. It stung a little, not much. She then said she would use a different laser to target the more stubborn spots. I can't remember the name of it, it made a whirring sound. Stung a bit round the nose.
I have a few coffee grounds today, nothing much. But I think the treatment has drawn brown spots up to the surface so I am left with lighter brown spots but more brown spots. I will check back in a month to see where Iam. I would say so far, not worth it, after the fist session.

3 rd treatment

Same as 2nd. I asked the therapist to increase stregth and I did feel a mild sting. But, unlike the 1st time, I had no reaction. No redness, no coffee grounds, no brown spot reaction. Maybe I have had all the results I am going to get from the 1st one? I have one more to go but so far, not worth it money wise.
