Fraxel Vs IPL for Fine Lines Around the Eyes?

Is IPL or Fraxel laser better for reducing fine lines and eye wrinkles?

A: Fraxel vs IPL for crows feet

  Certainly, Fraxel is better for this than IPL.  But Botox/Dysport in this area is considerably better than both.

Under Eye Swelling Worse After IPL

Is it normal for under eye swelling after IPL treatment to be worse at 2 days after procedure than it was one day after? And if so, how long before the purple bruising and swelling (possible blistering under eyes) dissipate?

A: Under eye swelling after IPL

  I think this is normal.  I don't think you have anything to worry about but if it would make you feel better, I agree with the recommendation of consulting your treating physician.
