Follow-up question: Is there anything I can do to speed up the healing and reduce scarring from IPL burns? (Photos)
jsflowerJan 16, 2019
IPL burns 13 days post hair removal. I recieved IPL hair removal 13 days ago and I got what the doc said was melanin clumping and minor first degree burns. This seems a little worse than that. I posted my initial burns and the photos here are what I look like now, almost two weeks later. Is there anything I can do about the dark and light patches? It's still peeling a little and I'm not sure if I should scrub or let it do it's thing. I'm using scar away silicone gel and triamcinolone acetonide cream 0.5%.
