Rejuvenate your skin and diminish pesky signs of aging with incredible Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) laser technology.
IPL is a progressive laser treatment that not only corrects skin damage without disrupting the skin's surface, but also changes the way your collagen behaves. The procedure uses scattered light energy with a broad wave spectrum to promote collagen production and healing of the dermis that allows your skin to not only repair itself, but to prevent further damage in the future.
Years of sun damage and brown spots can easily be erased, leaving you with younger, naturally beautiful looking skin!
How it works...
IPL Photofacial is an effective way to treat and reduce mild sun damage, brown spots, and irregular pigmentation on the face, neck and chest. It uses intense flashes of light that penetrate deep below skin's surface to break down pigment and target hemoglobin (for capillaries) and melanin-producing cells.
Why we love it...
It's an incredibly effective way to remove areas of discoloration but without being invasive or requiring a total resurfacing. There's no downtime and it's actually kind of cool to watch the spots surface and then flake away. We also love that it can address a variety of skin concerns to reveal a more even-toned, radiant complexion.

Treatment Areas
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is a common condition where some areas of the skin are darker than others. IPL therapy uses light energy to heat and break up this excess melanin.
Photodamage
Photodamage, also known as "sun spots", occur after long periods of exposure to the sun's powerful rays. IPL Photofacial is able to quickly and effectively reverse this damage.
Redness/Rosacea
IPL Photofacial removes superficial vessels and as a result dramatically decreases or completely eliminates facial redness.
Acne
IPL heats the dermis to destroy the acne-causing bacteria on your skin while also destroy the skin cells that cause acne's uneven pigmentation to give you brighter, more even-toned skin.
Acne
Freckles are higher in melanin than normal skin. IPL's laser energy is absorbed by the freckles leading to the destruction of the melanin in the freckle and its removal.
Brown Spots
Brown spots, or "age spots", produces areas of skin that is darker than others. These spots absorb the light energy from the IPL device, killing off their damaged cells.
Spider Veins
IPL for spider veins directly targets the red pigment of the broken capillaries and damages the blood vessel using heat. After the vessel walls collapse, it is eventually absorbed back into the body.
Jawline
The collagen in our skin degrades with age, resulting in fewer collagen and elastin fibers to support the skin. Light from IPL targets the loose collagen, destroys it, and boosts your skin's natural collagen production.
