What is Intense Pulsed Light Therapy?
Age spots, small visible veins, acne scars and melasma are all indications of skin damage. Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that can help rejuvenate your complexion. Various issues can be addressed with this gentle light therapy, which uses pulses of broad-spectrum light to penetrate the skin.

What to Expect During an Intense Pulsed Light Treatment?
One of the best features is that there is no downtime IPL therapy—so you can get back to your busy life immediately after leaving our office. You will wear protective eyewear during your treatment. A skilled practitioner will use a hand-held device to administer the intense pulsed light to the area being treated. As the device is placed against your skin, you may feel a mild warming sensation as the light energy gently heats the tissue. This process stimulates cell turnover and boosts collagen production. Depending on the areas being treated, a session typically lasts between 30-60 minutes. Little to no downtime is required, however specific post-treatment care is necessary and will be discussed during your appointment.
