Intense pulsed light should not affect the eye in any way as long as proper eye protection is worn. It should be safe even with glaucoma. To be safe, it may be worth clearance from your eye doctor.
Thank you foryour question jessica seet. I understand your concern. IPL is a greattreatment for facial rejuvenation. Having a history of glaucoma is not a contraindication to IPL treatments. Eye protection is always used for patients and providers. Please consultwith a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
Your glaucoma should not affect your ability to have IPL at all. Standard eye protection is all you (or anyone) needs.
Milia can be extracted, treated with lasers or needle desiccation. I suggest you see an expert, you likely need extractions from a well qualified aesthetician frequently. Best, Dr. Emer.
I find that aging like spots, scars, pigmentation, wrinkles all needs a combination approach. You will need to post photos and see a physician for a formal consultation to see what combo is best. Along with skin care/silk peels you will do very well. Best, Dr. Emer.
Laser hair removal can depigment the skin if not used properly. I suggest only going to a well trained cosmetic dermatologist with experience. Best, Dr. Emer.
Poikiloderma is best treated with lower wavelength intense pulsed light. Most IPL systems have a handpiece or filter for skin rejuvenation/vascular/pigment. The Cynosure maxG system is very effective, but many other systems will be effective as well...
Fillers, lasers, and microneedling/PRP can improve under the eye. My patients try to get non surgical treatments to avoid surgery. We use PRP and stem cells there often. I suggest consulting with an expert to develop a treatment plan best suited for your short and long term goals. Best, Dr. Emer.
