Request an AppointmentHow IPL works
IPL uses controlled pulses of light at multiple wavelengths to target pigment (brown spots, freckles) and vascular concerns (visible redness, small vessels). The skin’s appearance improves as targeted discoloration fades and tone looks more even.
Is IPL right for me?
IPL is commonly chosen for sun-related discoloration, freckles, visible redness, and overall tone refinement. Your provider reviews your skin, your goals, and your history (including sensitivity and sun exposure) to personalize the safest plan.
- Sun damage and brown spots
- Freckles and uneven tone
- Redness and small visible vessels
- Rosacea-related redness (provider-guided)
- Texture refinement and glow
- Some redness/warmth can occur after treatment
- Sun protection is essential before/after IPL
- A series is often recommended for best results
- Your plan depends on your skin and goals
Aftercare & downtime
Most patients return to normal activities quickly. Your skin may look mildly flushed after treatment. We’ll provide aftercare guidance to protect your results—especially sunscreen and gentle skincare.
- Avoid direct sun exposure and wear SPF daily
- Use gentle skincare for several days
- Avoid excessive heat (saunas/hot yoga) for 24–48 hours
