IPL PHOTOFACIAL

PHOTOFACIAL TREATMENT :
If you have acne and you are looking for the best solution to get rid of it, then IPL photofacial is the solution you need. IPL photofacials are recommended for individuals with severe acne or acne scarring, as well as other conditions like sun spots and age spots (through targeting blood vessels), and fine lines.
With just a few sessions, IPL treatments can clear up even the most extreme cases of facial acne and/or acne scarring. The exact treatment needed will depend on the severity of the patient’s acne condition. The typical skin treatment course should be about 4-6 sessions, each session a few weeks apart. Sessions can last anywhere from 15-20 minutes or up to an hour; this depends on how much skin needs to be treated.

HEALING AND RECOVERY :
A great advantage of IPL treatment is that it causes minimal discomfort to the top layer of the skin, meaning healing and recovery is quicker than with other types of skin and acne treatments. After each treatment, patients should feel like they have a mild sunburn on the treated area; this can last anywhere from 4-6 hours. Other effects may also include slight bruising and reddening for a day after the treatment, and some peeling after the first few weeks.

AFTER CARE :
To maximize your recovery, follow the following tips:

• Use lotion to moisturize the skin daily

• Wash the face a few times a day with cleanser

• If the skin is in pain, don’t apply makeup

• Always use sunscreen with at least an SPF of 30 if you plan to go outside to avoid sun damage, as sun damage is very harmful to the skin

VISIBLE RESULTS :
You can expect to see some improvements after the first treatment, but full results won’t start to become visible until after the first few treatments are done and several weeks into treatments.
