Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
IPL treatment is a non-surgical procedure that can help you achieve a more youthful, radiant complexion. It uses a broad spectrum of light to target brown spots, broken blood vessels, and other skin blemishes.
The procedure is performed by a trained professional who uses a handheld laser that emits a broad spectrum of light. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the skin, which causes the targeted tissue to heat up and break down and be removed from the body.
IPL treatment is a safe and effective procedure that can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns, including:
Brown spots
Broken blood vessels
Rosacea
Acne scars
It takes about 30-60 minutes to complete, and most people can return to their normal activities immediately afterward.
