IPL photos

[Felix]

Hello all,

Thought i'd share some thoughts. Here are some recent snaps i took about 2 weeks ago.

For the purists out there, they are straight off the camera, no modifications except resizing in photobucket to avoid breaking the page too much

I've concentrated on the neck area because i can see some unusual marks, don't know how they got there.

Apologies for poor focussing, next time i'll get someone else to do it with a decent macro lens.

Also, i didn't really bother with the face although you can see a bit of the jawline in some...

moral of the story? answers please, 6 lines or less, back of a postcard

PS Jude said i could use his account, nice chap, shame about the face.

Felix, you need a shaver!

Hi Marc,
Yup, well spotted. I have 4 different types of electric shaver from my shaving rash experiments.

The point you make so well is that i have NOT shaved therefore the redness isn't shaving rash.

bloody cold here today.

Bloody cold here too, yesterday it was so nice :(

well, normally you get minor folliculitis when you dont shave, I have the same thing and lots of other guys have this as well (and some girls, you know where :lol: ). You could try Biotherm non-alcohol aftershave cream, guess its gentle enough. Also, you could try to increase the shaving hygiene, Purell Hand Sanitizer (Pfizer) would cleanse your Panasonic shaver better than anything else (assume you got the right gear). You can find it here: http://www.expresschemist.co.uk/index.jsp?subframe=search&searchphrase=purell

if you lived in the US, Plexion cleanser would probably have been good (for the facial skin I mean, it costs 100 dollars or so)

Thank you Marc, i will take the advice on board but unfortunately it won't solve the problem - i don't have folliculitis.

In some ways the photos demonstrate how effective IPL/laser treatment can be, in the good old days i would be one colour, now i am 2 and look like a freak.

cheers
