I should say, I'm not an expert, I've just done a ton of research with my own interests in mind.
Re IPL, the jury is actually out on that. I was disappointed to find that out! The results aren't as cut and dried as I had hoped they would be. If you have fair skin (which you might if you have broken blood vessels), you risk negative outcomes such as burns.
I have those little capillaries, so I'm trying other things before being willing to test IPL, and when I do test it, I will start first with one on my thigh before risking my face.
HOWEVER, here is what I'm trying right now, and am measuring the results:
I started this protocol about a week ago and will keep at it for about six months, and I'm tracking my results. So I'll post here if I see any progress! :)
Oh, and about the skin thinning: I'm not sure of the mechanism, but I recall something about the result of the way the body treats the skin in the area once the muscles atrophy. So perhaps if the muscles aren't being used...? I don't want to speculate, and I can't remember the precise cause of the thinning, sorry to say.
EDIT: One thing I do remember is that if you have started while young and want to stop, unless you've gotten to the stage where the muscles have atrophied OR had a reaction, your face just returns to as it was. So if you started without really needing it, you can always take a break. Often, having it will train you not to move your forehead as much, which means you can go without and still get results.
I take two a day orally, one am and one pm. This is the brand I’ve always used, but there are several others.
