I have a over 2 years old pink scar on my nose bridge to Dorsal. I was told it is telangiectasia and that RadioFrequency/IPL (Pulsed Light) Radiofrequency (RF) will help. How dangerous is this? What are the side effects? Pulse dye laser and BBl has not helped. Is RadioFrequency/IPL (Pulsed Light) Radiofrequency (RF) safe? Are there other options?

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus...
Looks like your skin is burned. I would recommend keeping a Growth factor serum and cream to help speed up the healing and minimize any chance of scarring. You will also need to keep it out of the sun and keep a Physical sunscreen on.
Thank you for your question. When performing IPL in our office, we provide our patients with eye shields for protection. We encourage you to set up a consultation with a trusted provider for professional advice. Best of luck.
