Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment is a versatile and non-invasive procedure designed to address a variety of skin concerns, from sun damage and pigmentation issues to rosacea and acne. At Skin & Body Empire & Med Spa, our IPL treatments use advanced technology to target skin imperfections, leaving you with clearer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. Whether you're looking to enhance your complexion, reduce redness, or treat stubborn pigmentation, our IPL treatment can help you achieve radiant results with minimal downtime.
IPL uses high-intensity light pulses to penetrate the skin and target specific pigments, blood vessels, or skin cells. The treatment is effective for a wide range of skin conditions, offering a safe and gentle alternative to more invasive procedures.
During your IPL session, a handheld device emits gentle pulses of light onto the targeted area. The light energy is absorbed by the pigment in the skin, such as melanin in brown spots or hemoglobin in blood vessels, which are then broken down and naturally eliminated by your body. Most IPL treatments take 20-30 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You may experience a slight tingling or warming sensation, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated by clients.
