Can IPL treatments cause rhinophyma?

Physiologically it does not seem likely that IPL treatments will make a rhinophyma worse as it is used to treat Rosacea, the cause of a Rhinophyma. On the other hand it is not strong enough to treat a rhinophyma due to the thickness of this process.

As far as I know (and I just did a search of the medical literature) I dont see any cases of IPL causing Rhinophyma. In fact, it is often used as a treatment for Rosacea (which causes rhinophyma).  Most people who get IPL treatments have some temporary redness and swelling but with respect to long term changes, there is no known link that I am aware of. 

No, IPL cannot cause rhinophyma and is actually something we use to help people who suffer from rhinophyma. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
