FotoFacial - IPL (intese pulse light) or Photorejuvenation
Intense pulsed light - IPL, is a non-ablative technique used to treat fine lines, wrinkles, presistent red complexion, acne scars, large pores, sunspots, rosacea,and other skin blemishes.
The IPL treatment penetrates different layers of the skin to lighten hyperpigmentation, shrink blood vessels, tighten and stimulate collagen.
What to expect from IPL?
Since the IPL treatment is non-ablative, results generally take multiple treatments to see the desired result. Changes to your skin can be seen from the first treatment, but the total number of treatments required depends on the condition of your skin, usually 3-4 treatments. The treatment can be performed without any downtime and very little discomfort. It usually lasts about 30-45 minutes.
The most common side affects are reddening of the skin and mild swelling. Most people are able to return to their normal activities right after the treatment.
