I'm 28 years old, and have been trying to remove a red spot on my face for a few years. I had two treatments done before, with minimal results. I was getting laser hair removal done with a groupon, and the clinic told me out their IPL treatments. I'm just about 3 weeks out, and I'm now noticing many more fine lines than I started with. No redness, although I had rosesea before. My face swelled for about a week after the treatment, but nothing since. I'm nervous about the fine lines, and reading stories about fat loss has me extremely worried. How long did it take for any of you to notice the first signs of damage?
