PHOTO FACIAL

IPL Photo facial treatments utilize the latest advances in laser technology to help improve everything from the appearance of photo-aged skin, sun damaged skin to rosacea, age spots, premature wrinkles, pigment problems on the face, neck and chest. Photo facial (aka photofacial or photo facial) treatments center around the patented Intense Pulsed Light system which penetrates deep below the skin’s surface to help start the production of new collagen, and other connective tissues. A broad spectrum of light is transmitted through a small, smooth, transparent hand piece, which is gently placed over the skin. Cut-off filters in the hand piece change the wavelength range, allowing it to be optimized for different applications and skin types. The light penetrates the tissue and is absorbed by either the blood when treating vascular lesions or the melanin when treating pigmented lesions damaging them. The body’s natural processes then remove the injured tissue giving the skin a more even and youthful appearance.
