Intense pulsed light, or IPL, is a skin treatment that may be prescribed to treat dark spots, acne scars, and other pigmentation issues. It is different from laser skin treatments because those treatments use one wavelength of light, and IPL uses many different wavelengths at the same time. It reaches the deeper layers of skin without harming the top layers.
What are the Benefits?
IPL treatments are used to treat many skin issues – cosmetic as well as medical. Here are some of the issues this treatment can address:
- Acne scars
- Age spots
- Brown spots
- Oversized pores
- Broken capillaries
- Pigmentation
- Dull/uneven skin tone
- Redness
- Facial veins
- Sun spots
Are You a Good Candidate?
If you have sun-damaged skin or blotches of pigmentation, large pores, freckles, redness, or other issues, IPL treatment may be a good option for you. When you meet with our skin specialist, you can learn about the possible outcomes for your individual skin issues. If you have severe acne scarring, deep wrinkles, and severe sun damage, we may recommend a different treatment.
