Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, also known as photofacial or photorejuvenation, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses broad-spectrum light to target various skin issues
Our IPL treatments are done with the Cynosure Icon. The Icon platform is a next generation aesthetic light-based system, providing fast and safe treatments with optimal results
Treatment Recommendations
It is typically recommended that IPL treatments are done in a series of 3 sessions, with each session about 4 weeks apart
There is minimal to no downtime with IPL, but we always recommend a daily base of medical grade sunscreen to protect your skin from further sun damage
Benefits of IPL
Sun Damage Reduction: IPL can target and reduce the appearance of sunspots, freckles, and other signs of sun damage on the skin
Reduction of Hyperpigmentation:It's effective in treating hyperpigmentation issues like age spots, brown spots, and melasma, leading to a more even skin tone.
Rosacea Improvement:IPL can help reduce the redness associated with rosacea, a chronic skin condition characterized by facial redness and visible blood vessels.
Collagen Stimulation:IPL can stimulate collagen production, which contributes to firmer and smoother skin. This can improve overall skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Reduction of Broken Capillaries:IPL can target and constrict blood vessels, reducing the appearance of broken capillaries and vascular lesions.
Acne Treatment:IPL can have a positive impact on inflammatory acne by targeting the bacteria responsible for acne and reducing inflammation.
Hair Removal:IPL can be used for hair removal by targeting and damaging hair follicles, inhibiting their ability to grow.
Minimal Downtime:IPL is a non-ablative procedure, meaning it doesn't damage the surface of the skin. This results in minimal downtime, allowing individuals to resume their regular activities shortly after treatment.
Versatility:IPL can be customized to target specific skin concerns, making it a versatile option for addressing various dermatological issues.
Enhanced Skin Radiance:Patients often report a more radiant and youthful appearance following IPL treatment due to the improvement in skin tone and texture.
Customized Approach:Icon treatments use the Skintel® melanin reader technology, which reads your specific skin type and adjusts treatment settings accordingly
