I suffer from Poikiloderma of Civatte. Doctors here in Boston say it is sun damage. Even though I have used sunscreen extensively it is getting worse. It is on my neck and upper chest. I have tried 4-5 liver cleanses using the olive oil/grapefruit method and I take supplements (Vit A, C, E, D) probiotics, quercitin, flax oil. I am intrigued by your article, however I only saw one response.
1. have others had success doing this?
2. Is there a way to reduce the redness?
3. I read Borax is poisonous, how can you apply it to the skin.
4. is there a better way to cleanse the liver?
thanks, Kevin

Hello Sir, in my opinion I DO NOT think you should try IPL laser treatments. My husband I believe has this condition, it started out with some discoloration. He wanted to nip it in the bud so to speak, so he went ahead and had several treatments. He regrets it now big time. It exacerbated his symptoms immensely, the discoloration is the least of his problems now. He now deals with tingling, itching and extreme pain. I wish someone would of warned him of the dangers.

Heat aggravates the Poikiloderma so IPL is useless and only agitates. Notice how the red get more pronounced whenever you exert yourself or in hot weather even if you are out in the sun? There is a cold 'laser" treatment I have been told Fraxel Repair laser can be more effective but all paths are expensive so I am looking for a natural way. Anyway, I just wanted to reach out about the IPL and other "HEAT" producing treatments, the Poiki monster lives on heat and just reproduces. Good luck. I wish I had all the answers, I would be a very wealthy woman. :-)
