Flake off those Dark Spots with IPL
IPL therapy consists of a series of 4 to 6 treatments. Intense Pulsed Light passes through the top layer of skin (epidermis) and penetrates to the deeper layer (dermis) where blood vessels, pigment cells and collagen are found.
The epidermis is unharmed and redness and peeling associated with traditional laser skin resurfacing is completely avoided. Topical anaesthetic cream can be applied one hour prior to treatment to reduce any stinging sensation.
IPL Treatments of Freckles or Brown Spots
Over 2 to 3 week period, any brown spots or freckles will darken and then flake off. IPL treatments of abnormal redness or vessels usually have minimal downtime, although some patients experience purple discoloration as the intense pulsed light ruptures the blood vessels. Camouflage makeup can conceal any discoloration and it usually resolves in a week.
After IPL therapy, it is especially important to wear sunscreen and a hat to avoid sun exposure and prevent discoloration or recurrence of sun damage, brown spots and lines.
IPL for Hair Reduction
IPL is successfully used in men and women for permanent hair reduction in any part of the body. It is administered in a series of 4 to 6 treatments, and 4 to 6 weeks apart. Sun exposure during the course of treatments must be avoided for 2 weeks following the treatments.
