Conclusions
Marlon has ‘exceeded’ my original training significantly whilst achieving an exceptionally high level of success. By ‘pushing’ the boundaries he has found he can obtain good, consistent results with very few problems or complications.
In summary, his settings are (on his IPL device):
Fluence range – 32 to 46 J/cm2
Pulsewidth range – 35 to 40 ms
Pain level – 7 to 8
Test patch fluence – 25 to 36 J/cm2 Cooling is “critical”
Frozen cloths for 3 to 4 minutes after treatment Darker skins – reduce fluence by 1 to 2 J/cm2
