Immediately Removed Broken Capillary – Lihue, HI

I went to a doctor that operates the laser himself, not a technician. His experience and knowledge encouraged me to be proactive and get those darn sun spots removed!

I mentioned the broken capillary (on my nose) in the title because it was gone after just few hours. Something I cover up every, single day is now gone. Yay!

The sun spots are beginning to darken and hopefully will fall off within the next week.

I had no redness or swelling after. Painful during the procedure? Yes
The lack of redness may be due to a conservative setting on the laser, but I asked to go slow and would rather have to go another session than risk ugly side effects.

Also, I had my whole face treated

Two days after the first treatment, my face has lots of dark speckles. After reading reviews from the real self community, I knew to expect this. Foundation conceals the speckles, but they are dark, so still somewhat visible. I felt comfortable going about my daily routine today and running errands in town.
I hope these spots come off before the weekend!

Four days after my first IPL treatments, the pigmented spots have fallen off. Yippee!

I will be going for a second treatment to address the spots that remain.

To clarify, the sun spots have faded by about 40%. At the initial consultation, I was told 3-5 treatments for full fading.

After reading lots of IPl reviews on this site, I notice that the second treatment (where the laser is turned up higher) is where a lot of people experience negative side effects.
I wonder what setting the Dr. will recommend.
