Intense Pulsed Light Treatment
Intense Pulsed Light Treatment
Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy uses a broad spectrum of light energy to generate heat that targets a variety of skin concerns such as hyperpigmentation, rosacea, and acne. IPL photorejuvenation treatments target the deeper layers of the skin, and can safely be combined with other treatments that target the surface layer of skin. High-intensity pulses of light specifically target excess melanin and redness, all while promoting collagen growth. IPL can also be used to treat broken capillaries that may appear in your skin as a result of sun damage.
More About Intense Pulsed Light Treatment
What Can I Expect?
Pain
Throughout your treatment, you will feel a warm sensation caused by pulses of light. We ensure our patients are comfortable throughout the whole procedure, and if you experience slight discomfort, we may offer you a topical anesthetic to reduce any sensation. Little to no pain can be experienced post-operatively.
Recovery
Your skin may appear red and feel sensitive for a couple days following your treatment. Many patients experience a darkening of freckles and brown spots in the treated area that can be compared to the appearance of “coffee grounds.” These will linger for a few days until they fall off. You may apply emollients until the area appears completely healed.
Results
Following your IPL treatment, you will see a noticeable improvement in skin tone as this treatment reduces existing sun damage. The results from IPL treatments are long lasting when combined with proper lifestyle habits and skin care. Peak results are revealed around four weeks after your most recent treatment. Revitalize your skin today with IPL photorejuvenation treatments.
