Part of the problem is that much of the "hyperpigmentation" discussion that some people are said to experience and can address with topical treatments is probably inaccurate. There has been some disc...

I did get to speak with Dr. Haitham Masri for about 15 minutes, but that was only after they brought him in after several IPL treatments -- I think the assistants there felt that I finally needed a ph...

I'm not exactly sure what total fx is. I did get a fraxel treatment a couple of years ago during an IPL treatment at Straith Clinic. I was not happy that I wasn't fully informed about the downtime. ...
