Hello, I had BBL over my entire face almost 4 months ago. The dermatologist went up to my lower lash line, sideways over the inner lid and on the outside of my eyelid. I had no eyeware on. There was a lot of damage to my face and I started seeing black floaters, my vision was blurry when I tried to focus and light hurt my eyes. It became so painful I went to an eye dr who gave me steroid drops/ointment, neurontin and agreed my iris is much darker, like black marker. It keeps getting worse.
Nothing is really helping my rosacea, so I'm trying out IPL to see if that can help. 4 days out from my first treatment now. I swelled up in my cheeks some, but that has mostly gone down. I have been red on and off with itchy skin and new red papules. Also felt mildly sunburnt and pretty fried around the eyes after the IPL so i put burnjel on it, which helped a lot. I seem to have even more pustules around my chin than before too. Is this normal, does it get worse before it gets better with IPL?
I got IPL mostly to try to help with flushing. I also had some mild diffuse redness, which you can't really see very well in the before picture, but it was mostly in my cheeks. I'm 2 weeks post from my first IPL now, and it hasn't been a great experience. I swelled a lot, and felt very sunburnt around my eyes for several days after. In addition, 4 days after IPL, I started getting red itchy bumps all over my cheeks that haven't gone away. And my cheeks are now more red than before I had the IPL.
Hello, I had 1 bbl ipl treatment . There was no cooling gel, hair tape nor eye protection of any kind, didn't know these were used until I got the records from the derm. My skin is totally destroyed. I hsve had blurry vision And trouble focusing , it seems robber getting worse, no matter how big the object is, I can't focus. Is it possible the ipl did damage to my eyes? Thank you
I got a ipl photofacial about a month ago and the day i went i was left with burning swollen spots she told me it would be normal the next day i wokeup with burns she also said it was normal due to my face probably tanned prior. I left it alone until it healed properly and i was left with pink baby like skin but only on those spots. A month later my face is 3 different colors and it really bugs me because its very noticable. I cant get anything to make it go away or even cover it. Help!
