I can't talk about the peel yet cuz I've just gone through the motions and my face hasn't melted off yet. I went in for IPL but my face doesn't have much sun damage since I've done it twice before and got good results. Had one freckle I wanted to get rid of but she suggested a peel instead. I wanted to try a peel so I went with that but I got another day or two before I look like the walking dead.
I got IPL on my arms though. I thought for sure it would be way easier than face, but man o' man it feels like you got the worst sunburn of your life. I walked out looking like ginger arms with a sunburn. Aloe helped but only for about 5 mins. The goal is to see really dark freckles, and I do. They are starting to fade (yay!).
My advice if you get IPL anywhere other than face is to have lots of aloe on hand. It feels just like a sunburn and hurts to shower, but aloe helps. It's just that you need to apply it a lot.
I'll talk about my peel when I'm done. I gotta do a bunch of things every day but you peel on day 3 and I got it done on Thursday.
