It depends on the ipl device you are using. The results often depend on the laser's performance and the adaptation to your skin type. Usually, if a dermatologist performs the procedures, then adverse skin reactions should not occur. Laser and IPL procedures are beneficial for our skin because they restore its firmness, treat imperfections and improve its elasticity. I recommend you do an ipl skin treatment at a dermatological clinic with a good device to see the results.
