What to do when there is a blister after IPL for eczema scars? (Photo)

Question

I just had an IPL done to lighten the patches caused by eczema. After 2 days, I noticed that there are blisters in the areas I had laser done. I have applied solosite on the areas. Other antibiotic creams need a prescription. What should I do next? And is it normal to have blisters after IPL?

Thank you for your question mae2770. I understand your concern.
IPL is a great treatment for facial rejuvenation. Proper wound care includes keeping the area moist. For my patients I recommend the Avene Thermal spray water followed by an occlusive moisturizer several times per day. If it is infected oral antibiotics may be required. Please follow up with your doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
