IPL stands for Intense Pulse Light.
It is a safe, non-invasive skin treatment that can reverse the
signs of aging, especially those due to sun damage. The heat
from IPL stimulates collagen while destroying excess pigment
(sun spots, dark pigment, freckles, melasma), redness due
to blood vessels (rosacea), fine lines and enlarged
pores. IPL photorejuvenation can be used on the face,
hands, chest or arms. The results of IPL photo rejuvenation
are:
-
A more even skin
tone
-
Reduction in
pore size
-
Smoother skin
-
Fading of
sunspots and freckles
-
Reduction of
fine wrinkles
Treatments last about 20-30 minutes and 4-6
treatments are recommended at 3-4 week intervals for optimal
results. There is no downtime with this procedure.

You may notice a slight swelling, redness,
or darkening of brown spots which resolve within 24 hours. You
