For IPL treatment , acne breakouts after treatment are generally a normal reaction after treatment. This is because the skin already has some kind of inflammation before photorejuvenation. After photorejuvenation, the sebum and bacteria in the pores will be stimulated by heat, which will lead to the appearance of “acne breakouts”.
For example, some people who seek beauty have closed comedones before photorejuvenation. Photorejuvenation will accelerate their metabolism, causing the original closed comedones to burst out and form acne. If the skin’s oil secretion is relatively strong, there is a certain chance of acne breakouts after surgery.
In addition, improper postoperative care for photorejuvenation can also easily lead to acne breakouts, because photons will produce a thermal effect, which will cause the skin to lose water and the barrier to be damaged after treatment. At this time, the skin is more sensitive to external stimuli.
