Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is a non-invasive, non-laser treatment that uses broad-spectrum pulsed light to target various skin concerns. Unlike lasers that use a single wavelength, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths to treat pigmentation, redness, acne, and sun damage with minimal downtime.
Reduces Sun Spots & Hyperpigmentation – Lightens dark spots and melasma
Treats Rosacea & Redness – Minimizes broken capillaries and facial flushing
Improves Skin Texture – Stimulates collagen for firmer, smoother skin
Reduces Acne & Large Pores – Helps control oil production and breakouts
Minimal Downtime – No recovery time needed for most patients
