How Soon After Facelift or Mini Facelift is It Safe to Have an IPL Photofacial for Rosacea? Thanks! I had a "mini" facelift a little over two months ago and am wondering if it is safe to now have an IPL Photofacial or a chemical peel.

A: laser after facelift should be no problem at all. as you have already heard we will routinely laser or deep peels at the same time as the lift.

2 Ipls Have Had No Effect on Lentigos at Derm Office. One of the Other Doctors Has Suggested Yag.what Do You Think? I am now 5 weeks after ipl treatment on hands arms and face to try and fade or erase lentigos as diagnosed by derm. I am skin type II, and i see no change in my spots. Doctor used Lynton ipl and another doc says he will try yag. I would be grateful for your comments thanks Ally

A: NdYag and Ruby laser treat Lentigines While we have several IPL's in our offices our Dermatologic and laser surgeons prefer the NDYAG (found in our West Islip office) or the Ruby laser to treat these benign non dangerous lesions. When utilizing the IPL it requires more visits and may be more likely to have an adverse side effect . Usually with the lasers only one or two treatments are required to remove the lentigo.

Pain and Cost - Should I Continue Being Treated by IPL? I have Skin Type IV and been treated by IPL hair reduction in 4 sessions,with 4,6 and 8 weeks intervals(the whole body).Based on the blood tests and sonography I have done,I dont have hormonal problem or ovarian cyst.Considering suffering great pain during the sessions and the money I spend,after 4 sessions the result is like 15% hair reduction and somehow the growing hairs are finer.As the results are not what I expected,should I continue my treating or change the laser type?

A: ipl hair reduction

An IPL in skin type IV can work but to avoid hypo or Hyperpigmentation it has to be done carefully with less energy which means you need more treatments. You may want to try a physician who has a Yag 1064 because the risks of pigmentation are less and you may need less treatments. Some individuals no matter what skin type do not respond as well and need more treatments. It sounds like it is working but not as fast as you want, you should discuss this with you doctor.

Sincerely,

Dr Gartner

	“Would NOT Recomment IPL for Freckles...” Went to dermatologist for consult about having some freckles & sun spots removed. After a quick look at my face, the doctor said he could remove everything with 1 session of IPL for $600. I'd become increasingly self-conscious of minor blemishes and dark spots left behind by sun damage and acne. I said I wanted to do it. The doctor told the nurse to prep me right away. I stopped him... more
	“I Love my IPL Treatments on Sun Damage” I had (notice..."had") sun a damaged area on my right cheek and some "new" dark spots that had appeared at the end of summer 2009. I chose a dermatologist. When I was advised that the "new" dark spots were age/hormonal related and not "anything medically to worry about", I then inquired what I can do to improve the over all appearance of my face. I... more
	“IPL to Even out Olive Type Skin Tone...” I want to even out my skin tone, it looks dirty. I have an olive type skin tone. IPL didn't hurt at all and I didn't have any redness/swelling/bruising. Hi, we'll I've been using Ziana, Triaz and Doxycycline for three months and have seen decent results. It has left me with a lot of red mark/ PIH and an overall uneven skin tone.

	“2 IPL Treatments on Olive Skin with...” I have had 2 IPL treatments in a reputable dermatologist practice. I had some very minor burning sensation that lasted about 1 hour followed by some minor darkening of my spots, but no visible change. I had my second treatment one month later and had NO side effects, no darkening of the spots and no flaking of the skin. The person that performed the treatment told me it takes time. It has... more

	“IPL Amazing!” I wanted IPL to get rid of acne scars as well as freckles and age spots. I also had many broken capilaries around and inside the tip of my nose. I underwent the IPL procedure 2 years ago at the age of 36. At that time the cost was $250 per treatment, or 3 for $600. I did 3, 4 weeks apart. There was mild pain, but no worse than getting a lip wax. The mild redness that followed was only... more
	“Unexpected Results” I went in to have an age spots removed. The aesthetician told me that I was going to have an uneven skin tone if i chose to have only the spot removed and that he would perform a photofacial. It was a little uncomfortable, but not painful. However the emotional pain it has caused me is horrific. The next morning after the procedure, I woke up and the skin under my eyes was... more
	“CAN'T SEE A DIFFERENCE YET” I had IPL done at the same time as the Titan Laser. The cost for the IPL was about $350 The doctor put a cold numbing cream on me and I didn't feel anything - just a painless "shock". However, she zapped part of my lip by accident and I felt that and it hurt all day. My reason was that I had this done was I have enlarged pores, broken blood vessels around my nose and a... more
