IPL Laser treatment for hyperpigmentation (dark circles/raccoon eyes) after a Rhinoplasty? Middle Eastern decent

There may be some bruising as well as hemosiderin deposits in the area. You may consider Plato's Bruise Balm and some Q switch laser. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by many different factors.  These include volume loss, increased vascularity, and increased pigmentation.  Only the latter two reasons can be addressed with IPL.  Additionally, in your skin type, I would advise to proceed with caution when considering IPL.  It can certainly be applied, but make sure your provider is an experienced user who can minimize the chance of a burn given your skin type.  Good luck!

The main thing to consider before you start your treatments
is to have a consult with a reputable dermatologist/facial/plastic surgeon. My
practice has been considered by Lumenis lasers to be a Lumenis laser center of
excellence and I have been a "Lumary" (Lumenis physician teacher) for
the last 10 years. Not many physicians have these recognitions. I also help
develop and teach my own Rosacea and Melasma protocols for the Lumenis IPL
systems to other physicians and technicians.It is not uncommon to have some dark circles after surgery. IPL treatments may help this. Of concern is your skin type. Please be sure to consult in a place that performs a large amount of this procedures to patients of your similar skin type.Hope this helps,Dr. Gus Diaz
