IPL Photofacial
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), also known as Photo Rejuvenation, is a treatment that uses a range of light to treat damaged skin cells. It is very effective at treating:
• Hyper-pigmentation
• Dark or age spots
• Wrinkles
• Broken veins or enlarged blood vessels
• Rosacea
• Sun-damaged skin
• Uneven pigmentation, and
• Freckles
on all parts of the body – not just the face. It also promotes the renewed production of collagen and elastin in the skin, helping restore a more youthful appearance. 3-6 treatments, 3-4 weeks apart is recommended in order to achieve the maximum results. You can also combine this Photofacial with our ResurFX laser skin resurfacing treatment for the benefits of both in one treatment session.
IPL Photofacial is not a laser therefore there is minimal to no downtime. Your skin will be pink after treatment and on average, it goes away within 24 hours. The intense spectrum of light breaks up pigment in the damaged skin. If you have any sun spots, freckles or age spots, they will initially get darker and after two to three weeks, flake off. Once this process is complete, a brighter more even complexion will be revealed.
