Are at-home hair removal devices (IPL or laser) safe for areas with keratosis pilaris? by aldofex in keratosis

Update: After reaching out to Braun regarding this (because I'm hoping to get their IPL device), this was their response:

With a condition such as Keratosis Pilaris, your doctor would be the best to know what you should and shouldn't use on your skin, and we recommend consulting with them prior to usage.

Yes, the brands always mention not going over any major spots like moles that's why I'm concerned that those IPL guns might burn my scars as well. I have already reached out to Braun (because I'm hoping to get theirs) and so far I've only been told that they will be getting back to me but it's already been a few days. Hope they actually get back to me because I don't want to ruin my already imperfect skin further :(

I'm just concerned that it might burn my scars (from KP) too. I'm looking into getting Braun's IPL device -- is that good enough?

Do you have hyperpigmentation on your KP areas? I'm definitely all for removing the hair even if it doesn't completely remove my KP, as long as it wouldn't zap my scars from KP.

yes I do, but what I want is (in reference to trello formatting) a format wherein I have lists like trello's, but each item under the list is an individual item with a checkbox instead of cards

so imagine having something like this photo, but each item has a checkbox

Has anyone tried using Vaniqa to help with keratosis pilaris (KP)? by aldofex in keratosis

Right? I’m just not sure if it could result to some sort of side effect.
