YOUR GUIDE TO IPL PHOTO FACIALS

You’ve probably read about IPL photo facials online. Or maybe you’ve heard them mentioned on TV. They’re all the rage right now—and for good reason. But if you’re like most people, you probably don’t know what an IPL photo facial is like or how it works.

We’re here to tell you all about it and explain how IPL photo facials work.

IPL photo facials work by using a broad-spectrum light source that penetrates multiple layers of skin. Photo facials selectively target pigment and redness, such as sun spots and broken capillaries.

How To Prepare For IPL Photo Facials

Don’t worry, the actual IPL photo facial procedure is very simple! Before your IPL treatment, it is recommended to refrain from direct UV exposure and artificial pigment (such as a spray tan). Click here for a full list of pre-treatment considerations. 

IT’S SO EASY

The treatment process itself is straightforward. Before your IPL treatment, a cool gel will be applied to your face and you will be given protective eyewear. The clinician will gently apply the IPL handpiece to your skin so that energy can be delivered to the surface of your skin using precise pulses. You may experience mild discomfort, similar to a rubber band being snapped against the skin, but overall, the IPL treatment itself is very tolerable. Depending on the size of the area, the treatment will usually be completed in under an hour.

Photo facials typically require little-to-no recovery time. Following treatment, you can return to your normal activities, while continuing to practice sun avoidance to ensure optimal results. Areas of pigmentation may initially appear darker, until they naturally fade or slough off.

IPL PHOTO FACIALS LET YOU RECAPTURE BEAUTY

With routine IPL treatments, you can expect to see meaningful results. Sessions may be scheduled every 4 weeks, and your skin will continue to improve with each successive treatment.

The results are nothing short of amazing. Within 2-3 weeks after treatment, your complexion will be clearer and younger-looking. You can expect to notice a reduction in redness and sun damage.

Remember: In order to protect your rejuvenated complexion, avoid UV exposure and always apply a broad-spectrum SPF (yes, even in the winter months).
