What is IPL Photofacial? IPL treatments provide a non-invasive light based therapy that leads to healthier looking skin by targeting pigmentation, excessive redness, broken blood vessels, and reducing pore size. IPL therapy can be used on any area of the body to minimize the signs of sun damage and aging. The IPL Photofacial Treatment is able to treat a wide range of skin concerns. It can improve the appearance of brown and red spots, freckles, redness, sun damage, rosacea, pigment imperfections and more. IPL Photofacial works by emitting various wavelengths into the skin that effectively target the cells that produce pigment. This light energy is converted into heat energy to reach the hyperactive melanin-producing cells in the skin, which eventually disperses the pigmented area. Pigmented spots are pulled to the surface of the skin and eventually flake off.

During the treatment, tiny needles penetrate the skin to create controlled micro-injuries, which stimulate the body’s natural healing process and promote collagen production. At the same time, radiofrequency energy is delivered deep into the skin through the needles, which heats the tissue and enhances collagen and elastin production. This procedure is commonly used to treat a variety of skin concerns, such as wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin texture, and skin laxity. RF microneedling is known for improving skin tone and texture while tightening the skin. It is less invasive than surgical procedures and typically requires minimal downtime.

Micro-needling is a cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a device with fine needles to create tiny, controlled punctures (micro-injuries) in the skin’s surface.

This technology can be used to address various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne, acne scars, stretch marks, and overall skin texture. Micro-needling also allows for better absorption of skincare products as the micro-channels created during the process enhance the penetration of topical treatments. Most people get micro-needling on their face, but you can also get it on your neck, decollete, legs, back or other areas where you notice damaged or aging skin.
