This is difficult to answer without pictures. Some swelling can be typical, but if you're concerned I recommend following up with your Doctor for after care post IPL. Laser results can take several weeks to settle. I usually recommend a combination of treatments with IPL for best results. I suggest adding microneedling/prp and skin care to improve skin quality and tone once healed. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
Thank you for your question paulasvegal. I understand your concern.IPL is a great treatment for facial rejuvenation. It is difficult to make an assessment without photographs. However, some swelling is normal for a few days after a treatment. If you have further concerns I suggest you address them to your provider. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

That said, it's not uncommon to experience mild swelling after an aggressive IPL treatment, particularly around the eyes. I would recommend sleeping in an elevated position, and gently applying cool compresses to the area to help the swelling resolve sooner. Please follow-up with your treating doctor if you have any concerns about aftercare or how you are healing from your treatment. Best of luck!
