What is IPL?

IPL treatment utilizes a specially designed device that uses intense light energy in the form of short pulses to reverse skin damage, especially around the delicate eye area. Hyperpigmentation, rosacea, and inflammation can be repaired as the IPL energy uses heat to stimulate the production of essential proteins like collagen and elastin, which are all responsible for youthful skin’s bounce and tautness.

During

During your treatment, we’ll begin by cleansing your skin and applying a conducive gel. Then, we’ll get started with your treatment. This could take anywhere from 15 minutes to over an hour depending on the desired areas.

After

Afterward, we’ll give you a cool pack to soothe any redness: you might experience some swelling or soreness, but this is normal and should dissipate within a few days. We recommend that you treat your skin gently and use SPF.

IPL Treatment FAQ

Everything you want to know about IPL, all in one place.

What Is Intense Pulsed Light?

Intense pulsed light, also known as IPL, is visible, broad-spectrum light that’s used in targeted pulses. The energy from the light’s heat targets cells and tissues in your skin to create regenerative results.

How Do IPL Treatments Work?

The targeted light flashes are absorbed by specific layers of the skin, which triggers your body’s natural healing process to regenerate skin cells. This increases collagen and elastin production, diminishing lines and wrinkles for a smoother, tighter, and more even toned complexion.
