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.

IPL for Rosacea by a Technician or a Dermatologist?

I have just returned from a second consultation at our local University in Canada. Although I already saw the dermatologist for a consultation, I had to make a second appointment with one of his technicians, who will actually conduct the IPL treatment for my rosacea. Can I trust a technician or would you recommend to search for a dermatologist who conducts the IPL treatment by himself? Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

A: Technician OK for IPL Treatment

As long as the technician is performing the IPL procedure under the supervision of a plastic surgeon or dermatologist, you should be fine. Good luck.
