Before & After IPL Photofacial ~ Results 1st Treatment ~ Over 50

[@valdoria7934]

I am amazed at how youthful you look at "turning 50". I am watching your videos in 2021 and wanted to see where you started. Thanks for sharing your journey.

[@lf9341]

She's come a long way!

[@angelasteele2911]

Just an FYI: It hurts around the side of the eyes because it's close to the bone. Other spots on the face have some cushion between the skin and bone.

[@krs.10]

Even with 1 treatment there was an amazing difference. You look fantastic!

[@ShellSellars-Smith]

I know this is an old video but, IPL is an ongoing treatment. I have a girlfriend who gets 4 a year (she has been doing it for 5 years) she looks fabulous. It does work. It just takes a good provider and patience. I think it is one of the only ways without serious downtime to get rid of dark/red and get some skin tightening (yes, with the right provider you can get tightening). My friend got rid of the crepey skin near her mouth and fine lines near her eyes. It does work.

[@crucitasquillace5072]

I had this done a few years ago....I am hispanic and darker skin it is NOT good for it!!! My melasma got so much worse!! I went for a facial somewhere else and the esthetician sent photos of my face to a dermal institute and the drs all commented "what happened to her" when the esthetician explained what I had done and they said that someone with darker skin cannot get an IPL done. Now two years later I am still trying to get rid of the IPL mistake BUT...it is so much better with having dermal infusions done and regular facials.

[@angelanelson4773]

The IPL Laser worked much better for you than the L-ascorbic acid! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@lisatompkins9588]

Wow didn’t realize how long you been on you tube. Considering getting this done at 54 for the brown spots. Looks worth it to me. Thanks

[@matc2021]

do you wear sunscreen and if so which one? Do you use it daily?

[@MsKala88]

Does the IPL laser treatment help with fine wrinkles around the eyes? Does it help with age spots? Are you really over 50? What other types of laser treatments are there? I'm considering a treatment, but I don't know where to even begin. Thanks for your video.

[@aerez5356]

your skin looks very nice. it's definitely more even toned. what kind of sunblock/screen did you apply when you went outside?

[@sarcooking]

Hello! Thank you for posting. You said you had broken capillaries? Did this procedure eliminate them? Did they come back later if so? I’d really appreciate it. I have four and I hate them and cannot find very much information on peoples success.

[@ijenaro]

i am only 34 and i am noticing the difference in my face should i start these treatments now?

[@freedomdove]

My case is very rare, of course, but I've seen and heard about a lot of people with cosmetic damage from IPLs and that would be horrible, too. Most people have the IPL done to correct facial "blemishes", so to have the treatments cause cosmetic damage would be a double blow. Everyone with cosmetic damage wishes they could go back to their old appearance--even if it wasn't perfect. I highly recommend avoiding IPL. I would even go so far as to be cautious with normal laser therapy.

[@IdaBrun]

Angie you're so beautiful, and even after so many years of reckless sun worshipping you still looked so young and fresh faced, then and now

[@kerribeirne7397]

I would've liked to see the worst part of it. The brown spots/ freckles turning dark and falling off.

[@tinakirschenman2367]

I had it done this week. The numbing cream never set in. It was extremely painful and I immediately got a migraine. I have a very high threshold for pain. This was worse then a tattoo. I'm committed 5o the treatment but I'm not sure why we proceeded without the numbing gel. Awful!

[@kianaoiler6256]

Wanted to know the cost if it was pricey or not? and worth the money! Thanks

[@Vegheadsrock]

Are you sure youre over 50? You look great.

[@TammyLoveLife]

How much does cost? Does it rid wrinkles?

[@SG-477]

Thank you for posting. I have been researching, and this is the best I have found. Now I'm off to watch your other vid. Great info, thank you! Also, your beautiful before, and sfter-

That's amazing! IPL is just one of the best innovative way of looking younger.

[@jillianjoy3916]

I don't know if I've written this to you before but I just wanted you to know you really do have beautiful skin.

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

Thank you Jillian!

[@nataliemcgee6250]

Thankyou for sharing. Im booked in for IPL to remove sun damage (dark blotchy patches ) on my face. Due to our harsh Australian sun and my unprotected exposure in my youth. After watching your video I am more confident that this will be the right treatment for me. And hopefully I wont need to use such heavy makeup in my twilight years. So any young people reading this heed my advise and always use sunscreen and or foundations with the heighest sun protection avaliable, even on cloudy days.

[@Donavon551]

Natalie McGee How'd you find the treatment, did it work?

[@hannak43]

Natalie McGee did u try it? Does it help????

[@cej499]

From reading the comments I'm understanding that IPL worked on broken capillaries at first, but then they came back.

[@MrJFreez]

IPL is not a laser. Please do not be confused. IPL uses a broad spectrum of visible light to treat 3 specific targets/ chromophore i.e.: pigment, vascular, water. IPL ( or even better BBL) is a no downtime procedure. NOT ALL light based systems work well, actually, many are plain, underpowered tonka toys. You need to research the equipment being used by brand. Stay clear of cheap devices made in Isreal and China. They do not have the same safety components. Some great systems can get better results in a single treatment than others can in 3-6 treatments. Now, a laser only see ONE target and takes an MD to treat you because of rick of complication and after care. Stay clear of Co2 unless you plan on taking a few weeks off work and dont care if you like like a tomato face for up to 3 months. (crazy) You are better off with erbium. Co2 is less efficient in the vaporization of tissue ( resurfacing) so it leaves 12 x more heat in the dermis causing heat damage and a high risk of hypo pigmentation or nasty white patches. AGAIN IPL and Laser are NOT the same. You should not call an IPL a laser.

[@zhangallen6775]

Jay Friesen very great words...But Co2 is not only laser machine, also has 808nm diode laser machine which is professional for hair removal, 1064nm/532nm Nd yag laser machine which is for tattoo removal or pigmentation removal...Besides, there has SHR super hair removal machine which is very similar with Laser machine, but also can do skin rejuvanation, pigmentation removal, Acne removal, vascular removal....

[@kfrooke]

Seasea Nnnn , WTH does that link have to do with IPL? Geesh! Seriously?

[@annchovey2089]

Jay Friesen Do you know anything about the Refirme procedure? Most of the videos regarding it show only the procedure but do not show before and after of client.

[@emilu2129]

[@ichikireiLV]

So..... I know it can be different for each person, BUT..... NO ONE ever discloses the pricing!! What is the average price of ONE SESSION? And for your package of FOUR? Even though it may differ between facility, state and person, it will give an idea IF it is even anywhere near affordable for some people. Thanks for the video!! 🙃🙂

[@joannemarcuzzi6294]

199.00.

[@kimyates8593]

I just had round 2 of this done on my neck. Goodness this is painful. My dr does not use any numbing cream.

[@mickkali]

Hi Angie , you are lovely !!! thank you for creating an enjoyable and very helpful channel . Could you tell me where you had this done ?? TY

[@KathyHutchins100]

Thank you for your video. It was very informative. I am going to an IPL demonstration on Wednesday and am hoping that this is something that will be beneficial to me. I'm 56 and spent alot of my younger years in the sun so I have alot of sun damage...not very much on my face, but alot on my hands, arms and legs. If the price is right, I was going to try to do it first on my legs. Have you had this procedure done on anything other than your face? Also, I know prices differ from state to state, but can you give me a ball park figure of how much the treatments run? Thanks so much!

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

Kathy Hutchins HI Kathy~ I've only done my face. I think it was $600 for the package of 4 treatments. Good luck with it! xo

YAAASSSS betch! LOVE YOUR RESULTS! So Glad that this treatment worked well for you! Thank you for being SO detailed!

[@edenswan7742]

just got IPL for acne scars removed off of my cheeks and chin and it hurts so badly it felt like a branding iron put towards my face 6 times on each cheek and my chin but I got through it and it cost me 450 that's including the creams that don't come with it it ! So it was 300 150for the calming creams and lotions etc., I can't wait to see my results I'm glad you got good results but it did hurt it !! it's the most painful thing I've ever gone through and I have tattoos and piercings and this is crazy painful but worth it! I go back in six weeks for my second treatment boy am I not looking forward to this!!

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

If you call ahead and request, you can usually go in early and have a numbing gel applied to your face so it doesn't hurt so much! :D

[@edenswan7742]

HotandFlashy I did lol I think it's because I had so many tiny scars she had to cover my cheeks six. times each and then my chin three times! I feel like I already see results! Did you see any results after your first time?

[@lizbebereia5163]

Hi! I'm checking into what I want to have done for wrinkles, brown spots and evening out my skin tone. I had the CO2 back in 2002. Since it's been a while since you had the IPL, do you think it's lasted? I'd like something that last several years but don't want to do the CO2 again. Went to four different places. Pro fractional, Vipeel, BBL and Picosure were all recommended which left me totally confused as to which I wanted to have done. Any suggestions?

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

Liz Bebereia I'm trying to figure out the same thing, so I'm not sure how much help I'll be. CO2 is the big one (I'm kind of afraid of it). How was the CO2? Did it make a big difference? & how long did the results last? On the IPL, my results have lasted but I think it's because I use vitamin c serum and retin-a and sunscreen daily but the results weren't dramatic to start with. I was going to get the fractional laser this spring but when I talked to my dermatologist about it she said I don't need it yet (I was so disappointed). Now it's summer so it's off the table until fall but in the mean time I've been also considering a TCA peel or the pixel laser. It's so confusing. I've been spending lots of time on Real Self looking at the satisfaction scores for all of the above.... but still confused. Sorry I'm not much help.

[@lizbebereia5163]

The CO2 lasted for years. However, as the years went on I noticed I had a lot of pigmentation loss and brown spots. It was a pretty intense procedure. My whole face was scabbed over for a few weeks and then red. Broke out a lot. But overall for the first several years I was very happy with it. I grew up in Southern California at the beach and rarely wore sunscreen. I don't want to lose anymore pigmentation but I do want to lose the brown spots. I'll have to do a little more investigating. In the mean time I've checked out a lot of your videos and I'm trying some of the products you use. Thanks for your tips and information. I'll be watching! Liz

[@hannak43]

Liz Bebereia did u find a good pricedure for pigmentation??? Also in LA, and struggle with 2 dark brown spots😕😕😕😕

Does ipl work in removing facial hair permanently??

[@kocem3384]

It funny how now at the age 60 you look better than on this video😄! I am 39 and Im your big fan,

[@yohanas.k5086]

I prefere paying more for several sessions but with less strong IPL that doesnt burn and flake off rather than one time burning zap. It works the same, just slower and costly.

[@lindaschuyler6741]

Excellent video. Honest and informative. I did watch the other videos that followed and couldn't help but wonder if you have become addicted to treatments. I see you have procedures on a regular basis. I have often wondered if this happens frequently to people who have had plastic surgery.

[@JulesHunterHillBigSkyBeauty]

wow! There is a significant diff. from this end!

[@rachelsmename]

Hi hotandflashy, I'm having IPL done next week and alittle bit nervous about it because I had a lazer treatment done about ten years ago which I think was IPL, not sure, and it hurt a lot. Both for Rosacea. I was satisfied enough with one treatment because I didn't want to go through it three times. But now that I saw your video, I'm wondering if the treatment for Rosacea is different. I also want to do laser genesis which helps tighten the skin and helps Rosacea too, but doesn't hurt. The IPL may work better for the Rosacea though. Did you finish all your IPL treatments?

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

rachelsmename I did finish all 4 treatments, but only because I got her to put numbing gel on for the 3rd and 4th treatment. Without the numbing gel, I wasn't going back... surprising how much it hurt!!

[@kellindalton6028]

Technology has come A LONG way in the last 10 years. Just 4 years ago they had to rub ice on your face during the treatment and it was like a metal rod thingie... I just had it done yesterday without ice and it wasn't as painful!! HotandFlashy, i didn't know there was an option of numbing treatment LOL.. Love your videos!!!

[@nicolaeugenea4770]

I had it done today and it really hurt around my forehead, but not quite so bad everywhere else (anywhere with a little extra fat was less painful 😉😅)

[@talinag5958]

Does the IPL make your face peel? I have a baptism the day after my treatment and was worried about looking very red and to start to peel.

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

+Talina G It didn't make it peel so much as bringing lots of brown spots to the surface that look like tiny scabs…. you can cover with makeup, but you may want to reschedule the IPL...

CURE ROSACEA _ I removed onions (inflammatory) and dairy from my diet ( animal hormons are injected to to cows to get more milk which adds up to our body's hormones and results in breakouts) and my rocesia is completely gone.. I have seen many dermats but they kept suggesting multiple creams n ointments... every dermats had their own cooked up crap theory.. however I did yoga, cleansed my body within with the help of yoga.. cut down on Onions, Alcohol and Dairy out completely from my diet. ... keep in mind ur body is sensitive avoid all inflammatory acids of all sorts.. which also includes Apple cider vinnager.. I have thrown out all sorts of tablets and creams which I was fed up of taking. Shared my experience hope it helps.. good luck to you.. by the way my skin has improved drastically.. infact it looks like it was never there and is glowing as I started yoga it looks younger now.. P.s I tried laser.. all international peels.. international certification acclaimed dermats.. spend lakhs to treat. Laser worsened my skin condition. DO NOT FALL IN THE TRAP OF LASER.. IT'S THE WRONG FOOD.. CORRECT YOUR FOOD.. BECASUSE THE DESEASE IS FROM W/O THING THE BODY.. IT'S NOT JUST OVER THE SURFACE.. LASER IS CAN WE CAUSING THING... REMEMBER THAT.. PLEASE DO NOT FALL IN TO THIS POCKET FILLING TRAPS BY DERMATS.. IT WILL RUIN UR SKIN. Many doctors are promoting IPL.. Please understand this redness is internal.. CORRECT ur diet.. IPL treatment will Ruin your skin.

hi. I would love to know what was the IPL machine that was used? I saw some fabulous pictures inside an office. They used Palomar's Photorejuvenation Process

[@lauragrl16]

Hi , So would you recommend more than one treatment ? cause I read in your comments you didn't feel the 3 and 4 treatments did anything ? I am 42 , and have some brown spots in the same area as you I want gone . So this will help with that? I have seen some other laser treatments the CO2 or something and I can't do that right now because I saw its like a 2 week down time ( watched a video of it omgosh her face was gross for like over a week ) . But you think atleast 2 treatments of the IPL helps with the brown spots ? .

[@AngieHotandFlashy]

Laura Whildin If I were to do it again, I'd just do the first treatment… it really made the biggest difference. The CO2 is much more aggressive and completely removes the surface of the skin, so that's why the down time is so long.

[@elise6550]

Hi Angie! I signed up for IPL and think I will like it. The plastic surgeon/doctor says he only does it for one treatment and occasionally 2 or 3 depending on your skin. I have brown spots and some broken capalleries I'd like rid of. But, usually 1 treatment is all that is needed. Does that sound right? He charges $600 or $750...quote is coming in the mail.
