28 Male Love the IPL - Walnut Creek, CA

I have always had unwanted sun spots and freckles on my face, but never knew what I could do to get rid of them. I client had given me a few products from her skin care line to try. I liked it but sadly I had over used the exfoliant on my cheeks causing rosacea. Seriously depressing, I am not opposed to wearing makeup at times but I didn't want to have to wear it all the time. I had met a nurse while I was with my friend getting botox that had offered me a free IPL treatment to treat my rosacea. I agreed with caution not knowing if I trusted lasers but at this point her confidence in success was motivation enough to give her a try. She did my whole face, not the most pleasant feeling kinda like a hot rubber band snapping at your face but tolerable. After I had it, it was like a mild burn on my face that lasted about an hour, went home relaxed and was fine. Later on about 8 hours I looked alil crazy, my spots became darker and darker. I thought I had made a horrible mistake. As the days progressed the spots became kinda ruff and crusty. Around day 6 they started flaking off. My rosacea was gone! But not just that my spots have lifted too. I have never looked this even in my life. I was so excited I booked my next treatment and started getting my botox from her. It has been 2 years and I get them about 3 times a year and now do fraxel twice a year Love love love it. But if you are going to do any laser make sure you go to someone who knows what they are doing. You can ruin your skin
