Marcella,
That's cool that your flushing was reduced after IPL.
I have heard that after some time period that IPL is also
needed again. Do you think you will be needing to go back
for more IPL?

after IPL. I certainly have. I had 5 IPLs and it helped a great deal to
reduce redness and
flushing. Never cured it of course and I am due for a maintenance ( my derm
stopped at 5
but I needed more then 5 ). I notice that I am starting to feel the tingling
and the hot face
in the mornings again.
