IPL Treatments
IPL stands for intense pulsed light.
You can use IPL to minimize or remove:
- age spots
- sun damage
- freckles
- birthmarks
- varicose veins
- broken blood vessels on your face
- rosacea
What to expect during the procedure
Your skin care specialist first cleans the area that’s being treated. Then they rub a cool gel onto your skin. Then, they apply light pulses from the IPL device to your skin. During your treatment, you’ll need to wear dark glasses to protect your eyes.
The pulses might sting your skin. Some people liken the feeling to being snapped with a rubber band.
Depending on which part of your body is being treated and how large the area is, the treatment should take 20 to 30 minutes.
To get the results you want, you may need to have several treatments. We will discuss this with you in advance.
