Do you want smoother, tighter, more even skin tone but don’t want to undergo extensive treatments or down time?
IPL is short for intense pulsed light, a rejuvenation treatment that evens out skin imperfections by treating broken capillaries, acne and brown spots caused by age or sun damage. IPL also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which helps to brighten skin and give it a youthful glow.
Skin Types
Almost every skin type can benefit from our IPL treatments. The best candidates for IPL treatments are people with sun damage, light freckling, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, red or flushed faces or broken capillaries. An added benefit is that the IPL stimulates new collagen resulting in smoother, tighter and healthier skin!
Results
After one treatment, you’ll see firmer skin. Age spots initially become darker and then eventually fall away as part of the skin’s natural exfoliation process. Skin and pores feel and look tighter, while fine lines and wrinkles slowly decrease in size. For maximum benefit, a minimum of six treatments over 12 months is recommended.
Downtime
There’s no downtime after your IPL facial. You may experience a temporary flushing that dissipates within hours and darkening of pigmented spots that fade over a 5-7 day period. Our IPL facials are gentle and cause only minimal discomfort. You can go back to work, re-apply makeup and continue with your day.
Improving the results of your IPL Facial
Like any treatment it’s important to follow all pre and post care instructions. Our registered medical aestheticians will speak with you before your treatment and will send you home with a post care sheet.
