IPL

What is IPL?

IPL is a light therapy that uses multiple wavelengths of light to target unwanted pigment in your skin. Unlike laser therapy, IPL uses a broad spectrum of light to treat various skin issues at once. This distinction makes it versatile and effective for addressing multiple concerns. 

What can IPL do for me?

IPL offers several benefits and can treat a wide range of skin concerns, such as:

• Acne and acne scars
• Fine lines
• Brown spots and sun damage
• Spider veins
• Redness and rosacea
• Broken blood vessels
• Age spots
• Birthmarks
• Freckles
• Skin discoloration

Even if you have no specific skin problems, IPL can boost your natural glow for a more youthful, radiant complexion.

What does an IPL treatment involve?

During the treatment, your skilled provider glides a handheld device over your target areas to deliver pulses of light into your skin. The light pinpoints unwanted pigment, breaking it down so your body can naturally clear it away over time.

While the IPL device moves across the surface of your skin, you may feel a slight sensation, similar to a rubber band snapping, but it’s not painful and is well tolerated by most people. Your skin may appear slightly red afterward, but it usually fades quickly.

How many IPL treatments will I need?

IPL treatments only take about 20-30 minutes and don’t require any downtime. You can return to work or get back to your routine immediately. Most people need about 3-6 treatments to see noticeable results from IPL. The team recommends spacing these sessions about 3-4 weeks apart to allow enough time for your skin to heal between appointments.

When will I see results from IPL?

Everybody is different, but your skin may appear clearer and more even-toned just a couple of weeks after your first treatment. As new collagen forms and your skin’s pigment fades, you’ll continue to see improvements.
