IPL Photofacial/ Skin Rejuvenation

With laser skin renewal you can easily clear many undesirable skin imperfections on your face and body. By targeting sun damage, brown spots and wrinkles this technology provide you with clear results and beautiful-looking skin.

An IPL photo facial treats sun damage, sunspots, rosacea, broken capillaries, cherry angiomas, freckles, epidermal melasma, scars (including acne scars), and collagen remodelling. IPL systems work on the same principles as lasers in that light energy is absorbed into particular target cells with colour (chromophores) in the skin. The light energy is converted to heat energy, which causes damage to the specific target area and removes the colour of the skin. The main benefit of an IPL Photo Facial is an even skin tone with a more youthful appearance without the need for botox or surgery.

FAQ’s

  • Unlike lasers, which can cause the skin to peel and possibly leave scars, the IPL Photofacial treatments are very gentle on the skin. The pigment in the brown spot or age spots will darken very slightly, and the treated blood vessel will also darken a bit. However, the skin will be intact. The treated areas may also be slightly pink for a few hours.

  • There is minimal discomfort during a Photofacial skincare treatment. Anesthesia or numbing medicine is not required. When the Photofacial or IPL flash hits the skin you will feel a small snap or sting, but this is easily tolerated by clients. The contact cooling window of the handpiece gives a safe, less painful treatment.

  • 4-6 sessions is recommended for great results.

    Treatment results vary with each individual and the specific skin problem that is being treated.

  • Generally, you will see the results of your Photofacial skin care treatment at 4-5 weeks. The brown spot will be lighter or gone and the red spot or blood vessel will be much smaller. Some patients with thin skin and very light pigment or small broken blood vessels will see complete removal after one treatment.

    However, most people see definite improvement 5 weeks after the Photofacial IPL treatment and may require 3 more treatments for complete removal.
