WORTH IT$350
Was told to do IPL when said I want to clear up creping skin on neck mainly and some in checks. The estitician said do IPL will take care of freckles and tighten.
I had 1st procedure and that estitician sad I shud have done Fraxel for crepe it goes deeper but would wud not take care of freckles and is much more $$$. I was kissed cause my freckles don't bother me I went about the crepe skin!
Anyway, a few days later I actually do see a difference w/ improvement to creping skin, especially the neck. So will do full the ther rounds and save Fraxel for when I'm older:)

Keep us updated. What machine did the doctor use ?
There are some horror stories on IPL. But I want to try it. I guess it's better to have a doctor or dermatologist do the procedure versus a Med Spas esthetician

Sorry I just noticed who did your laser. Well, people with poor results had severe redness immediately after the treatment.
My doctor had the new cynosure Icon machine.

I would never let a new spa do it without being under a doctors license!
They have to test your skin to see the strength of the laser. I had a Med spa use a laser and burn the hell out of my skin only to tell me that was normal!!! After this treatment I know they lied!
You always take risk with any procedure just research the place and check out the facility.
Best of luck:)

Thanks for the response. Gosh, I replied to your post several times. Sorry. I am just really interested in IPL or the Dermapen

I was told seems pen was for scars, like the one to the left of my mouth, big bote scar. They said that's a spot thing and have to pay for the cartridge, how ever much? I might do that later?
But I feel like it gave me my younger neck back and after one treatment!!! Very happy! :)
