Look Younger With No Downtime

The IPL is a quick procedure that does not harm any other tissues. It uses light energy to target a certain color in your skin. As the skin is heated, your body gets rid of the unwanted cells that cause skin discoloration.

During the treatment, the IPL device’s tip touches your skin after the gel is applied. The session probably takes 20 to 30 minutes.

The treatment may or may not sting, so please let the practitioner know if you have sensitive skin so a numbing cream can be applied before the procedure. This happens only in rare instances.

Please know that your face will feel a bit sunburned after the treatment. Some redness, swelling, or bruising will occur. Dark spots will get darker before they fall off in a day or two.

Depending on the severity of the condition, the process takes about 4 sessions to complete for most people. Wait 3–4 weeks between visits.

It might take several weeks for gradual changes to take place in your skin. The results should be more evident after your second treatment as improvements build upon each ongoing treatment.

After the entire process, you will have an even skin tone, making you look younger.
