I'm taking lyrica for nerve pain in my shoulder and back. I am considering IPL for hair removal on my bikini area and armpits

Question

I want to try IPL as I have difficulty shaving and waxing hurts due to overall sensitivity. Is it safe to do so

Hratch Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

I am aware that patients on Lyrica have had Rosacea treatments with lasers without deleterious effects. As such, it should be safe. Check with the treating physician.dr Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member
