IPL Photorejuvenation / Fraxel
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Skin Therapy
Lighten sun damaged skin, red and brown age spots and rosacea, as well as acne scars. IPL, or photorejuvenation treatment is safe and fast, and typical results can be seen in 3 treatments at a cost of $400.
Ideal Candidates
Those who have redness or broken capillaries, light acne scars, sun damage, rosacea, hyperpigmentation and vascular changes will benefit from IPL treatments.
How it Works
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a safe burst of light that stimulates collagen and makes the skin look younger, while improving skin’s overall texture. The light penetrates the outer layer of skin and the deeper layer of skin cells is heated gently. These cells, once heated, produce more collagen which helps to improve fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment only takes about 15-20 minutes, and can be done over a lunch break.
Typical Results
IPL Photofacials can make a remarkable difference over time improving overall firmness. A brief period of redness is the most common side effect, which can be covered by makeup or powder until redness subsides – usually within an hour. Following an IPL treatment, your skin will look brighter, younger and firmer – you’ll notice that your overall texture has improved and your skin tone has evened out. After the IPL procedure stay out of the sun for 2-4 weeks (and no self-tanning) while skin heals completely.
Fraxel Non-Ablative
If you’re looking for a non-invasive, effective way to rejuvenate your skin, Non-Ablative Fraxel might be the perfect solution for you. This advanced laser treatment targets common skin concerns like sun damage, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation, offering impressive results without the need for surgery or extended downtime.
What is Non-Ablative Fraxel?
Non-ablative Fraxel is a fractional laser treatment that uses precision technology to target deeper layers of the skin while leaving the outer layer intact. Unlike ablative lasers, which remove the top layer of skin, non-ablative Fraxel works beneath the surface to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce visible signs of aging. It’s a non-invasive option for patients who want to improve their skin’s appearance without the extended recovery time that comes with traditional laser treatments.
How it Works
It is non-ablative, heats the skin in pixilated columns that results in collagen stimulation over time, resulting in improvement of fine to moderate lines and wrinkles, and improvement in skin pigmentation (as well as tone and texture).
