What is IPL Photofacial and How Does it Work?

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial offers comprehensive complexion improvement, targeting various skin concerns for clearer, smoother, and brighter skin. This versatile treatment effectively addresses pigment-related changes caused by age, sun exposure, medication, and more. Beyond correcting skin tone, IPL is highly effective in improving overall skin texture and clarity.

How IPL Delivers Results

Based on a process called photothermolysis, IPL emits concentrated flashes of pulsed light energy. This light is absorbed by specific targets in the skin (chromophores like melanin for pigmentation, or hemoglobin for redness). The absorbed light triggers a precise biological process to achieve your desired clinical results, such as:

  • Skin Rejuvenation: Safely and gently targets sun spots, age spots, and addresses concerns like sagging skin and wrinkles. It works by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin restructuring for improved firmness, tightness, and a healthy glow. You’ll notice a more even complexion and softer, suppler skin, often after the first treatment.
  • Acne Clearing: IPL works deep beneath the skin’s surface to destroy acne-causing bacteria and decrease the production of excess oil. This significantly reduces breakouts and promotes cellular healing for clearer, fresher skin.
