Sun Spot Removal with IPL Photo-facial in Vancouver
What is IPL Photo-facial?
IPL Photo-facial is an advanced light therapy that can significantly improve your tone, texture, clear broken capillaries, sun spots / brown spots, vascular scarring, acne and rosacea. The IPL (intense pulsed light) system can be used safely for skin rejuvenation to treat aging & photo damaged skin on the neck, chest, hands and just about anywhere on the body.
At Pure Light Laser Skin and Body Clinic, we use the Cynosure Icon Laser system, the latest model for light based lasers. IPL system, light energy is delivered through the skin, removing certain skin imperfections with little down time. A series of 2-5 photo-facial treatments are given at 3-4 week intervals. After your first photo-facial treatment, you will see instant results after two weeks. This intense pulsed light system can be used to safely to treat aging and photo damaged skin on the neck, chest, hands and just about anywhere on the body.
How does it work?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Photofacial is the best method for successful treatment of rosacea. While prescriptions and creams only mask the issue, IPL Photofacials work to treat rosacea in two ways⏤by decreasing redness and by reducing the symptoms of dermatitis that are often associated with rosacea. With rosacea it is important to treat, rather than mask, the symptoms before they get worse.
IPL Photofacials work by delivering light energy through the skin, which disperses unwanted pigmentation and redness without damage to the skin. IPL Photofacials have the added benefit of treating sunspots, redness, and broken capillaries all at once⏤as well as stimulating collagen, which lifts the skin and tightens pores. IPL Photofacials also effectively treat rosacea acne.
