Would another treatment be needed on top of IPL or different treatment altogether? At consult I asked which procedure IPL, Fraxel or DermaSweep would be best to fix my concerns. She said IPL , micro peels& Botox Concerns in order of importance 1)brown spots & white nodules entire face 2) chin texture & redness 3) cheek texture 4) white spots (milia?) under eyes 5) browning at corner of lips 6) browning/darkness general orbital area 7) sagging eye lids 8) loose skin under eyes Would IPL fix 1-6? Particuarly 5 & 6 I am olive undertone with medium yellowish sensitive skin
Answer: Combination therapy would be the best Unfortunately IPL alone will not treat everything. Combination therapy is your best bet. IPL is best suited for brown pigment and dilated capillaries, rosacea and diffuse redness. In your case, the brown spots, redness, and browning at lip are very likely to respond to IPL. Cheek and chin texture would be best treated with Fraxel or microneedling. Consider Ultherapy to lift sagging and loose skin. In addition, to further brighten and maintain your IPL results, consider chemical peels (Jessner is great for brightening) and invest in home care products containing brighteners such as hydroquinone, kojic acid, vitamin c, and lactic acid.

Answer: IPL can address redness, scarring caused by acne, fine lines ad wrinkles, and sun damaged skin Our office has many different treatments for the skin and scars depending on the depth of atrophy or hypertrophy. Scars require a combination approach using our HI DEF protocol which uses a combination of lasers, topical scar modulation, and RF treatments to pixelate scars, improve contour, reduce hyperpigmentation, and improve the visibility of the scars so that they are no longer visible in ambient light. Everyone has a unique pattern of scarring and we employ our HIDEF technique to improve texture, color, contour, and topography. We often use a combination of treatments that begin with a careful examination to examine the micro texturing of the acne scars. Atrophic scars and indented scars can benefit from injectable fillers such as Radiesse, Sculptra, and Restylane with or without subcision to remove tethered scars and atrophic depression. Hyper-redness in scars can be improved with V beam laser, Excel V, BBL, IPL, and Venus RF to improve the redness and reduce the visibility of deep scars. Fractional Thulium laser and clear & brilliant can also reduce the inflammation and redness of the scar when combined with topical therapy. Fractional lasers such as Fraxel, erbium, and CO2 laser can be combined with radio frequency and also fractional RF to improve textual issues and microtopography. Subcision and TCA cross are also used for deep ice pick scars and narrow valley scars in order to improve the micro texture. Above all, our combination approach with our clinical nurses and board-certified plastic surgeons can improve the quality of your skin by using at home Melarase creams combined with PRP treatments in our office to improve your skin quality and tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced team of experts in order to reduce your scarring.

Answer: Facial Aging and Lasers like Fraxel/Clear + Brilliant, RF like VIVA, Peels, Fillers, Skin Care, Face Lift, Fat Injections Fraxel does much better than IPL (orwith IPL) for antiaging / color on the skin. Microneedling/PRP can helpstimulate collagen production. Skin care and sculptra are also essential. Please see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Combination treatments work synergistically. IPL is a great place to start and combination treatments with different modalities can help achieve optimal rejuvenation. IPL can help with the brown spots, red spots, and texture. Follwing that up with Microfocused Ultrasound and Fractora can enhance the texture results as well as help with acne and scarring. We recommend doing injectables (botox, fillers) AFTER completing the energy treatments. Botox would definitely help with the frown lines. Finally, we offer PRP as well after applying the energy treatments. As always, keep up a solid skin care regimen.
