What is possible
The most common application of IPL is a skin rejuvenation technique known as FotoFacial (also PhotoFacial). This treatment provides an average of 70 percent improvement in the signs of sun damage (redness, brown spots, etc). There may also be some improvement in wrinkles, pore size and flushing. An entire zone, such as the face, is treated during each treatment The sessions are scheduled every 3 weeks. Using a numbing cream (discussed later) immediately before the session may reduce any discomfort. Usually the treated skin stays red for 1-3 days and there may be a little bruising. Brown spots that have been treated usually flake off within 5-7 days. Most people can go back to work right away.
In addition, IPL may be used with different parameters for a variety of other conditions such as port-wine stains, hemangiomas, brown spots, scars, blood vessels, rosacea, acne and more.
- Our goal is to provide the best possible treatment every time.
