Can I have an IPL photofacial done a week before rhinoplasty?

Question

Kenneth D. Steinsapir, MD · Answer

First, you are not likely going to feel like having this service just a week after a rhinoplasty. You may still have your nasal cast on. Your face will be tender and swollen. The fracture done in the nose will be at its most delicate. It is prudent to put off these treatments for 6 weeks after your rhinoplasty. Even at that time, check with your surgeon.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I suggest you do a peel a few weeks before and then BBL (instead of IPL) with halo the day you do your rhinoplasty and heal at the same time.  Best, Dr. Emer.
