What is IPL?

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments use the healing, transformative properties of specific wavelengths of light to improve the colour, texture, or tone of your skin without invasive treatment. IPL treatments can address problem areas on the face, hands, chest, and body. During your consultation, your specialist will examine your areas of concern and recommend a treatment plan that is unique to your needs.

Who is IPL right for?

Our IPL technology is safe for all skin tones. Treatments are highly recommended for individuals with concerns about sun damage or visible aging. IPL can treat discolouration, visible veins, wrinkles, pigmentation, redness, uneven tone and texture, and more. IPL can also be effective for rosacea because it effectively targets redness.

What are the risks of IPL treatment?

IPL treatments are extremely safe when administered by qualified practitioners who spend the time to analyze your skin prior to treatment. Certain pre-existing medical conditions may prevent you from receiving treatment; this will be discussed with you during your initial consultation.

How long will IPL results last?

IPL results are long-lasting, but regular treatments may be recommended to maintain results.

What to Expect From

IPL

IPL treatments usually last 15-20 minutes, depending on the area being treated. During treatment, a device sends out multiple wavelengths of pulsing light to treat multiple skin concerns at once. It feels like a really light snap with an elastic band against your skin as the applicator moves around the treatment area. The applicator has a built-in cooling feature to make the treatment as comfortable as possible, but you might feel a bit of discomfort if you’re treating a more sensitive area, like the upper lip. Following treatment, patients often report smoother, more even skin tone, a reduction in pigmentation or scarring, and a more radiant complexion. You’ll need to avoid sun exposure, retinoids, tanning cream or tanning beds before and after your treatment.

IPL treatments offer a quick recovery because the wavelengths emitted during your treatment can target concerns without damaging the surrounding tissue. Your skin may feel warm, like a sunburn, and can remain red for anywhere from a few hours to a day, but you should be able to return to most day-to-day activities immediately. It’s especially important to wear sunscreen following your treatment, and to avoid tanning, hot baths, massages, or any treatment that requires direct contact with the skin on the treated area for 48 hours.

When it comes to skin rejuvenation, in-office treatments are one piece of the puzzle. To achieve the best possible result, we highly recommend pairing your treatments with complementary skincare that can be used at home before, between, and after your treatments to first prepare your canvas, then boost and maintain your results.

In combination with your IPL treatments, we recommend Skinbetter Science Even Tone Correcting Serum™, applied to the face, neck, and décolletage morning and evening after cleansing. This product is formulated to even out your overall skin tone by improving the appearance of brown patches, sun damage, hyperpigmentation and discolouration. We recommend waiting 24 hours after each skin resurfacing treatment before applying any products.
