I've been excited about trying IPL for my MGD, but I've discovered you can't use it in the presence of tattoos! This is super disappointing as I have eyeliner tattoo on my upper and lower lids. I looked into lipiflow and couldn't find anything about using it around a tattoo, but the manufacture advises it can loosen punctal plugs. Didn't find anything regarding IPL and the presence of plugs.
Maybe blephasteam is my only other option, assuming that its safe with a tattoo and plugs? I couldn't find anything about those combinations. Has anyone read or been told what the risks are or what the safest options are?
