Description of Procedure

Intense Pulsed Light Treatment is based on emitting high intensity pulses of light (not lasers) to penetrate the skin and rid you of various complaints. There are different machines for different levels or types of penetration. It is also knows as IPL photorejuvenation.

This mini-procedure is capable of diminishing or fully ridding one of age/liver spots, fine wrinkles (rhytids), facial flushing, redness, broken capillaries, telangiectasia (Teel-ann-ject-AZE-yah) which are purple or blue veins on the face, hemangiomas (sacs of red, purple or blue blood vessels resembling a blister, aka strawberry hemangiomas), freckles, minor sun damage, port wine stains, tattoos, varicose veins, spider veins, flat birth marks, and hypo-pigmentation. It can also be used in hair removal.

In addition, Intense Pulsed Light Therapy gives you the benefits of a medium depth laser or chemical peel or other type of resurfacing/rejuvenation procedure without the blisters, burns and long recovery time. It is also the only proven therapy to help with redness (rosacea, flushing, etc), with many patients reporting a reduction in pore size, smoother skin, and less wrinkles.
