Intense pulsed Light (IPL) treatment

What is IPL Laser?

IPL, also known as “Intense pulse light”, is wavelengths of light that creates heat to stimulate collagen production in the skin. It helps to improve skin tone, texture and signs of sun damage. IPL is also used to treat rosacea and acne depending on the wavelength that is used during the treatment.

Ipl laser benefits

This treatment is one of the most effective treatments to fight against the signs of aging and sun-damage. UV exposure from the sun light can break down the collagen in the skin resulting in more fine lines and wrinkles. Certain areas of skin, such as the hands and face, are more exposed to sun causing “age spots”. IPL is also one of the best options in treating visible veins and capillaries. IPL can help combat sun damages via two mechanisms; it penetrates the skin ultimately removing discolored cells and lightening dark spots and replaces them with a significant amount of collagen. The effects are subtle and are not comparable to a more aggressive treatment such as surgery.

Pulse light treatment is also used in treating stubborn acne when combined with other modalities. Photo facial (IPL) kills superficial bacteria of the skin to decrease the inflammation. By repeating this treatment, the outer layer of the skin renews, and the scar tissue is gradually eliminated.
Since all the skin rejuvenation modalities make the skin temporarily more sensitive to the light, it is recommended to
avoid sun exposure a week before and after treatment. IPL treatment requires no down time and is affordable in pricing.

How is IPL treatment performed in Sunny Aesthetic?

At Sunny Aesthetic, we numb the area that is being treated for about 40 minutes using topical anesthesia. After numbing, the face will then be cleaned and prepped before the ultrasound gel is applied. During procedure you may experience some mild discomfort. The process will
take approximately 20 minutes.
There is no downtime for this procedure, but it is recommended to not take hot showers for about 48 hours and no exfoliation for at least 3 days post treatment. It is also recommended to avoid sun exposure for a week before and after the procedure. For best results, we recommend a minimum of 3 sessions that can be done 2-4 weeks apart.

How much IPL Laser treatment cost?

At Sunny Aesthetic, the photo facial starts at $350.
