I had received ipl treatment for my eyes, optilight. They go over the cheeks and nose along with the eyelids. At the time my rosacea was usee control with a triple cream. Since the ipls my flare is centralizing in my nose. The doctor said it would go away and it hasn’t. I don’t know what to do. Is there anyone here that has seen this before? I’m really concerned bc it burns. It happens mostly at night. I need to find a good dermatologist to help me. My dr has never seen this before. Thank you
