Poor IPL Treatment (Fair-skinned, Freckles)

Poor IPL Treatment

N

I am fare skinned with a lot of freckles! I was a model for an IPL treatment at a med spa and my results are extremely uneven and blotchy on my arms. My arms are very freckly in some areas and I have rectangular marks in other areas with no freckles. Any advice? I am really regretting my decision and wish I left my arms alone. I am afraid to go back to correct it and get more done. When will my freckles return?

It looks as though she completely missed areas.

I think that's pretty obvious.

I would ask the place that did it to correct it

Looks like it worked great, just missed lots of areas…I’d have them correct it.

I would seek out another IPL provider/operator and get those areas left undone corrected. I would not go back to the same person, it's obvious they don't know what they are doing or how to use the device correctly.
