IPL Photofacial
The photofacial that will have you ready for your closeups…and not fear the camera zooming in.
30 minute duration
Intense flashes of light that penetrate deep below the skin's surface to treat and reduce mild sun damage, brown spots, broken capillaries and irregular pigmentation on the face, neck and chest.
How it works...
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy can do wonders for your skin. Just like you, it’s a multi-tasker – it can fix anything from age spots to sun damage. It uses short blasts of high-intensity light to penetrate deep below the skin’s surface and breaks down pigment and targets hemoglobin and melanin-producing cells. The result is firmer skin that’s more even in tone and texture.
Why we love it…
First, it needs very little recovery and no surgery. Areas of discoloration are quickly removed without needing a total resurfacing. It’s almost magical to watch the spots surface and then flake away. The other amazing thing about it is it can address so many skin concerns and deliver a more even-toned, radiant complexion.
