A member asked:
Help docs, is intense pulsed light devices helpful to treat the skin problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends...: Intense pulsed light (IPL) is a treatment modality that can help with skin rejuvenation and improving skin discoloration. For instance, it can help to improve the appearance of freckles, sun-induced skin damage, and small spider veins or other broken capillaries. So... it depends on what your skin problem is, as to whether IPL can help. You should consult with your plastic surgeon / dermatologist
