Abstract
IRPL was traditionally used for the treatment of a variety of dermatological diseases such as rosacea. However, third-generation equipment was created specifically for periocular application with multiple homogeneously sculpted pulses “It is the only IRPL device medically certified to treat Meibomian Gland Dysfunction.” Several hypotheses or effects of how the device works have been proposed. Ablation of the small telangiectatic vessels around the eyelid, elimination or reduction of the ectoparasite Demodex, which resides in the meibomian glands and consumes meibum secretions in patients who have rosacea, photomodulation of the glands stimulates cellular activity, improving the micro and macro structure of the meibomian glands. In addition, the modification would decrease the inflammation surrounding them.
