Is it safe to have IPL for facial veins whilst taking Zoloft?

I am not aware of any specific contraindications of receiving IPL treatments while on Zoloft. Intense Pulsed Light treatments are safe and effective for treating unwanted pigmentation and small veins and redness. I hope you get the results you are looking for with this treatment. Good luck!

Thank you for your question vix2016. I understand your concern. An IPL photofacial is an
outstanding treatment for facial rejuvenation. It works by using bright light
to target and destroy pigment and redness in the skin. It is difficult to make an assessment without a
formal exam in the office where I can directly view the skin. However, I hope
the information provided here is useful.Certain medications increase a person's sensitivity to light. These are called photosensitisers. If exposed to sunlight or other forms of light such as intense pulsed light (IPL) a person may develop a rash, tan, sunburn, itching, swelling, peeling, or other unwanted response. It can also increase the risk of skin cancer, cause allergic reactions, and lead to premature aging of the skin in the form of wrinkles, discolorations, and redness and broken capillaries. Zoloft (sertraline) is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. This medication is not known to cause photosensitivity. However, other antidepressants such as tricyclic antidepressants are known to cause photosensitivity.Please consult with a doctor for specific
recommendations. Good luck!
