IPL is an ideal treatment for skin care concerns
IPL laser treatments penetrate deep below the skin’s top surface to treat the issues at the source of the problem. In order to eliminate the causes of redness, sun spots and old acne scars, a patient will likely require multiple IPL treatments.
The IPL laser can truly create a remarkable difference in the patient’s skin over time, since the skin continues to improve for weeks after the actual IPL treatment. Immediately following an IPL, you are able to continue with your daily routine, without having to worry about any inconvenient interruptions. You can expect each IPL treatment to take approximately thirty minutes, unless you require numbing beforehand, which most patients do request due to the intensity of our laser. Many of our patients seamlessly integrate their IPL into their lives by getting treatments during the times of the year that they know they wont be overexposed to the sun.
A brief period of facial redness is the most common side effect of the IPL, although this can easily be covered up with liquid foundation, powder or a concealer until the redness subsides, usually within an hour or so.
