I had IPL treatments on my legs to remove sunspots the first week of April. Nothing changed from the knee down, but my thighs got red burns on them for at least 1 month. They have peeled off and I have permanent discoloration where the burns were. I hope these eventually fade. The spots on my thighs did eventually peel off.

Thank you for your feedback. Treating hyper pigmentation with IPL can take several treatments. We tell patients that 3-5 treatments spaced about 4-5 weeks apart is typical. Please know that all of our medical estheticians are highly trained and very experienced. Patient satisfaction is extremely important to us. Please contact our office so that we can evaluate your progress and change your treatment plan if necessary. We look forward to talking with you soon and being of service.

Update after IPL for sun spots on legs
val64February 25, 2021
This is a while after IPL treatment for sun spots on my legs. As you can see nothing has changed. Then after picture I had before was not an accurate representation of how my legs looked because they were tan. Here is one with no tan.
