Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
Fotofacial Using Intense Pulse Light
An IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) facial is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target a variety of skin concerns, including sun damage, dark spots, and redness. This treatment is available in Scottsdale at Clear Dermatology and is a popular option for people who want to improve the overall appearance of their skin.
During the treatment, the light is absorbed by the pigment in the skin cells, causing them to break down and be absorbed by the body. The treatment can be customized to target specific areas of the skin, and it is a safe and effective option for people of all skin types.
IPL facials typically take about 30 minutes to complete, and most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure. After the treatment, patients may experience some mild redness and swelling, but this typically resolves within a few hours. Most patients are able to return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment, although it is important to avoid sun exposure and to use sunscreen to protect the skin.
