Performed by specialists using advanced technology, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) photofacial uses light energy to treat skin tone and texture for wrinkles, spots, scarring, and more. IPL can be used to minimize the appearance of:
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial Treatment is similar to laser treatment, but the main difference between the two is the IPL releases light at different wavelengths rather than just one, like laser treatments.
IPL light is less focused than a laser and penetrates the second layer of your dermis without damaging the top layer of skin (epidermis).
Pigment cells in your skin absorb light energy from Intense Pulsed Light treatments, which is then converted into heat. This heat targets unwanted pigment to destroy it and clear up spots and freckles. The heat causes superficial damage or injury to the skin, which activates the skin's natural healing process, promoting the production of proteins like collagen.
Non-invasive and non-surgical photofacial treatment does not harm facial tissue; It does not cause scarring, infection, or other complications.
As your skin heals itself, it sheds off any dull or damaged skin from the epidermis to reveal healthy, supple skin. During this process, collagen, elastin, and other skin-beneficial proteins are produced in abundance.
The result of IPL photofacial treatments performed by specialists is a clearer, softer complexion free of spots, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines and wrinkles. Bruising from the treatment may last up to two weeks, but results are typically seen within days of the procedure. Dark age spots may last up to one week.
The healing process and time to heal vary by patient, but you can expect mild redness for up to one week after treatment. You will be given instructions for how to care for your new complexion and skin following treatment.
You will see more improvement after a week of treatment, with maximum results visible within a few weeks.
A number of factors can cause differences in skin pigmentation on your face and body. One of the most common reasons why hyperpigmentation occurs is due to sun damage, which is why it's most visible in areas of the body that are exposed to sunlight, like the face and hands.
IPL Photofacial treatments are recommended for treating issues with skin pigmentation or uneven skin tone on the body. With areas of redness or dark spots reduced, you'll have a brighter complexion.
Photofacials provide patients with gentle skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime. IPL Photofacial treatments reduce scar visibility and can also reduce pain and irritation associated with acne scars. With discolorations reduced, you'll have a more even skin tone. IPL works for scars, both young and old, and burns.
IPL photofacial treatments can reduce the appearance of brown spots and moderate sun damage by repairing or removing damaged skin to reveal new, healthy skin. The penetration of heat promotes the growth of collagen and elastin fibers, reducing surface imperfections.
Redness from rosacea can also be reduced using IPL Photofacial treatment, minimizing the effects of redness to restore your complexion.
