A member asked:

Is it safe to get ipl laser treatment one year post rhinoplasty?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

LASER treatment: First, LASER is not IPL. They are different in property and intensity. Rhinoplasty has nothing to do with light-based skin treatment. However, there are other conditions or medications that can cause potential reactions or complications with LASER treatment. You need to seek the treatments from a doctor not a "spa" and have a pre-treatment medical evaluation by the doctor.
