I had IPL 1 week ago on my chest for hyperpigmentation. Should I be worried now about post treatment hypopigmention? Directly after the treatment I had erythema and blisters. I was told to ice and treat the area like a burn. I week later the area treated still has railroad track like lesions.
Answer: Http://www.pacificcenterplasticsurgery.com/skin-treatments-newport-beach/sciton-laser/ IPL ( intense Pulse-Light) treatments can give varying results from treatment to treatment depending on how much pigmentation correction is needed. We refer to the blotches you refer to immediately after treatment as "coffee grounds" effects. These are most likely sun-damaged layers in the epidermis that will slough off within the first 1-2 weeks. Deeper pigmentation will continue to resolve over time and with successive treatments.lWe find that the Sciton laser is exceptionally effective at treating most skin types for sun-damaged and uneven skin color.#IPLtreatments #Scitonfor hyperpigmentation #hyperpigmentationtreatments

Answer: Hidef Treatment of Red Scars, Post-Inflammatory Erythema, and Skin Blushing Our protocol for hyper-erythematous redness uses a combination of lasers and Nanofractional RF to help reduce localized and perfuse hypervascularity in the skin. We begin with an evaluation of the redness and evaluate the cause of the hypervascularity. Treatments with Limelight IPL, Vbeam Perfecta, and Nanofractional RF are then used to reduce the blood vessels and telangiectasia within the skin. Patients benefit from post-treatment application of Elevase Moisture Booster with ceramides. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon
