IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light therapy, uses gentle pulses of filtered light to target unwanted pigment, redness, broken blood vessels, acne bacteria, or hair follicles beneath the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue. The light energy is absorbed by specific targets in the skin, such as brown sun spots or red blood vessels, where it is converted into heat and gradually broken down and cleared away naturally by the body over time.

IPL can help improve sun damage, uneven skin tone, rosacea, age spots, acne, fine lines, and unwanted hair while also stimulating collagen production for a smoother, healthier appearance. Most patients describe the treatment as a quick warm snap against the skin, and there is usually minimal downtime depending on the treatment intensity and area treated.
