What Is IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)?
IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light, is a non-invasive light-based treatment that corrects uneven pigmentation and redness caused by sun exposure and aging. Sometimes called a Photofacial, IPL uses multiple wavelengths of light to gently heat and break up pigment beneath the skin’s surface, improving tone and clarity without damaging surrounding tissue.
​
It’s one of the most effective treatments for fading brown and red spots, reducing redness, and restoring your skin’s natural radiance.
How Does IPL Work?
During an IPL Photofacial, pulses of broad-spectrum light target excess pigment and visible blood vessels within the skin.
​
-
For brown spots (like freckles, sun spots, and age spots), the light energy breaks up concentrated melanin, bringing it to the surface where it naturally flakes away.
-
For redness and broken capillaries, the light collapses small blood vessels so they can be reabsorbed by the body, fading visible redness and rosacea over time.
The result is a smoother, more even complexion—without harsh chemicals or significant downtime.
Commonly Treated Areas Include:
-
Face
-
Neck and chest (décolletage)
-
Hands
-
Shoulders
-
Arms
Why Choose IPL Photofacial?
One of the best features of IPL Photofacial treatments is that they deliver visible results with zero downtime. Skin may appear slightly flushed immediately after treatment, similar to a mild sun-kissed glow, but this fades within hours.
​
Over the next week, dark spots may temporarily darken before gently flaking off, revealing fresher, more even skin beneath.
​
Post-treatment care tips:
-
Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning for several days
-
Apply sunscreen daily
-
Use gentle skincare and avoid exfoliation for one week
Most clients notice immediate brightening after just one session, with continued improvement as pigment clears.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
For optimal results, a series of 1–3 IPL treatments spaced about four weeks apart is typically recommended. Each session enhances tone, reduces discoloration, and improves overall skin radiance.
​
Maintenance treatments once or twice a year can help preserve your clear, glowing results.
