IPL Treatment - Intense Pulsed Light
IPL Treatment or Intense pulsed light treatment is a photorejuvenation treatment used to reduce the effects of ageing or sun damage on the skin and can be used to reduce the cosmetic affects of birthmarks, freckles and some non-benign lesions. A safe non-invasive skin treatment solution, the pulsed light is gently applied to the treatment areas whilst the eyes are protected using specialised covers. IPL treatment is not a painful procedure and the post-procedure feeling may be likened to the flushness experienced after a round of excercise. Applied over the course of 6 sessions, IPL treatment creates long term results with skin conditions such as age spots or uneven pigmentation with most customers reporting satisfaction with the treatment. The IPL Treatment device uses white light for a type of nonablative resurfacing called photorejuvenation. A commonly used IPL device is marketed under the term PhotoDerm. IPL is commonly used to treat port wine stains, dilated blood vessels, liver spots, and excess hair. In small studies, IPL treatment resulted in new collagen formation, modest wrinkle improvement and improved pigmentation. Side affects include redness for an hour after treatment.
