Does IPL or Tri-Luma help correct hemosiderin stains? I ended up with severe bruising after Juvederm injections under my eyes. Thanks.

Pulsed dye laser is your answer.  It works remarkably well for bruising.  Some physicians are not familiar with this technique.  The settings are 10 mm spot size, 6 ms pulse duration and 6 mj of energy.  You won't see much change immediately, but within a few days you'll see the bruising start to resolve.
