Intense Pulsed Light Therapy, also known as IPL, is a customizable skin rejuvenation treatment that addresses discoloration and visible redness. It may be used on the face, neck, chest, hands, and other selected areas. Unlike a traditional laser, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths of light to treat several skin concerns.

IPL delivers controlled pulses of light that are absorbed by unwanted pigment or blood vessels beneath the skin. The targeted pigment gradually breaks down, while visible vessels fade as the body naturally absorbs them. Gentle heat also stimulates collagen production to support smoother and firmer-looking skin.

IPL may benefit individuals with sun damage, age spots, freckles, uneven pigmentation, broken capillaries, or facial redness. Treatment may not be appropriate for recently tanned skin, certain darker skin tones, active infections, or individuals taking photosensitizing medications. Your provider will review your skin, medical history, and current medications before recommending treatment.
