I had my first IPL Epilight treatment yesterday. Won't know any results of it for up to two weeks, it can take that long for the hair to fall out after the treatment. Unfortunately, it only targets dark hair, and I have a lot of thick blonde hair. However, I do have some dark hair, hopefully those will fall out.

I want to try that IPL Eplilight treatment for my whole face. I am light skinned and have dark hair! How much are they? And how long does it usually take?

Westendboi: You used flaxseed oil??? or powder? How did you do that?? Thanks.

I know in the UK, the price for a single epilight or ellipse treatment is something like 200 quid. Maybe more in London.

I take flaxseed oil orally morning and night. one tablespoon. Then, a couple of times a week, i splash a bit onto my face and rub it in and leave it there for as long as is practical (i.e. If I dont have to go out or anything lol)

it is improving the "healthy glow" no end. taste sucks, but washed down with orange juice, its easy enough hehe
