Discover the Rejuvenating Boost Your Skin Deserves with IPL
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Therapy is an aesthetic treatment that penetrates the deeper layers of your skin which helps encourage healing from the inside out. The treatment uses a special handheld device that emits quick pulses of broad-spectrum light when it makes contact with your skin. This specific type of light helps pull out impurities (such as hyperpigmentation or sun spots) without doing any damage to the surrounding tissue.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy is a type of light therapy used to treat wrinkles, red telangiectasias, brown spots, and unwanted body hair. IPL is used to remove age spots, sun damage, freckles, birthmarks, wrinkle treatment and wrinkle reduction, rosacea, and unwanted body hair.
A handheld device is passed across the skin’s surface delivering pulses of broad spectrum light to the deep layers of the skin. There is no need for any incisions or injections since the handheld device employs a light to influence the skin on a molecular level. IPL can target specific concerns by sending out scattered wavelengths of light directly on the problem area. There is no downtime and the treatment is very comfortable with the cool touch crystal tip. Packages of 3 sessions is recommended.

If you are considering IPL Laser Treatment, you should follow these preparation steps:
Consultation: Schedule a complimentary consultation with one of our experienced practitioners to discuss your skin concerns, medical history, and to determine if IPL is suitable for your skin type.
Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks before the treatment. Sunburned or tanned skin can result in unwanted side effects such as hyperpigmentation, blistering, and scarring.
Avoid skin irritants: Avoid the use of skin irritants such as retinol, alpha-hydroxy acids, and other topical products that can cause skin sensitivity or irritation for at least two weeks before the treatment.
Shave: Shave the treatment area one day before your appointment. Avoid waxing, plucking, or using depilatory creams.
Remove all makeup, moisturizers and lotions from the treatment area before the session.
Wear comfortable clothing: as tight or restrictive clothing can irritate the skin after the treatment.
Medications: Inform your practitioner of any medications you may be taking.
