$1,150
I had a combination on IPL and Vbeam to help even out my skin tone on my face. Dr. Groff was very nice and I trusted him when I was told my concerns of slight redness and very subtle uneven skin tone could be improved with the combination of lasers used at the same apt.
Well, it's only been 2 weeks, but my skin looks much worse than before the treatment. I called the office and was told I need to wait another 2-4 weeks to assess the results. My concerns were not really taken seriously I felt. I just hate to think I may have spent $1150 for my skin to look worse. That's a lot of money to me (although worth it to me if it evens out my skin tone and reduces the redness).
I will post more pics at 4 weeks. Hopefully it my skin discoloration will improve, at least to where it was before the IPL and Vbeam.
