Frequently asked questions about intense pulsed light treatment
Many patients who visit Flawless Faces Medi Spa of New Braunfels, Texas, are overwhelmed at the many skin-based therapies available to improve their skin’s appearance, health, and overall texture and tone. However, one treatment stands out as a reliable and effective solution for many skin concerns: intense pulsed light therapy or IPL treatment.
What is the intense pulsed light treatment, and how does it work?
IPL treatments use a broad spectrum of light that targets specific areas of the skin. This innovative and amazing technology allows for precise and controlled treatment, making it an excellent option for treating various skin concerns. The intense pulsed light therapy delivers short bursts of high-intensity light pulses into the deeper layers of the skin. The energy from these pulses is absorbed by melanin, responsible for skin pigmentation, including facial redness and blood vessels. This process helps to reduce the appearance of age spots, sun damage, rosacea, and broken capillaries. It also stimulates collagen production levels, resulting in firmer and smoother skin.
What are the reasons patients choose intense pulsed light versus other skin therapies?
There are a few different reasons why patients love IPL treatment. This procedure is non-invasive and requires little to no downtime, so you can return to your daily activities immediately after treatment. It is also a safe and effective option for all skin types, making it an excellent choice for many of our patients of all genders and skin types. Additionally, IPL treatment can target multiple skin concerns at once, saving time and money compared to other individual therapies.
What can intense pulsed light treatment address?
With IPL treatments, patients can enjoy a versatile solution for many skin concerns, including:
- Age spots
- Sun damage
- Freckles
