Treatment Details
IPL is a virtually pain-free, FDA-approved procedure. It involves the delivery of precise pulses of light to the skin’s surface, while thermal energy is radiated into deeper skin tissue. The light pulses are administered via an IPL hand piece, which allows the clinician to target very specific areas. The energy delivered to the superficial and deeper layers of skin repairs the cells and stimulates collagen production. That, in turn, helps reverse the signs of aging, discoloration, blemishes, hyper-pigmentation, sun damage, and other undesirable skin conditions.
NOTE: Prior to treatment, a gel is applied to the areas being addressed and patients are given protective eyewear.
Areas Treated For Best Results:
- Entire Face
- Neck
