What Is a IPL Photofacial?
IPL, or Intense Pulse Light, is a popular cosmetic treatment that uses a specific type of light to improve the appearance of the skin. IPL photofacial services are used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including sun damage, age spots, rosacea, and broken capillaries.
The treatment works by using a device that emits a broad spectrum of light, which is then absorbed by the pigmented cells in the skin. The light energy is then converted into heat, which destroys the pigmented cells and causes them to be absorbed by the body. This process results in a more even skin tone and a reduction in the appearance of age pigmented lesions.
HOW IS IT PERFORMED?
IPL photofacial treatments are typically performed on the face, but can also be used on the neck, chest, and hands. The procedure is usually performed in a series of sessions, with each session lasting around 30 minutes. The number of sessions needed will depend on the severity of the condition being treated, but most people need between 3 and 5 sessions to achieve optimal results.
One of the main advantages of IPL photofacial treatments is that they are non-invasive and do not require any downtime. There may be some mild redness and swelling after the treatment, but this usually subsides within a few hours.
There is no need to take time off work or other activities after the treatment.
Another advantage of IPL photofacial treatments is that they are suitable for all skin types. The treatment can be tailored to suit the individual needs of each patient, so it can be used to treat a wide range of skin conditions.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
Some of the common side effects of IPL photofacial treatment include mild redness, swelling, and discomfort. These side effects are usually temporary and will disappear within a few hours. In rare cases, there may be some slight pigmentation changes, but these are usually temporary and will resolve on their own.
