Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is used for addressing various medical and aesthetic skin concerns. During an IPL session, pulses of light at specific wavelengths penetrate the outer layers of the skin, acting on the tissues to stimulate skin renewal and healing processes, boost cellular metabolism, improve texture, and more.
Uses of IPL Therapy
IPL therapy is applied to treat:
- Problematic, acne-prone skin and enlarged pores
- Early signs of skin aging, such as fine lines, loss of elasticity, and dull complexion
- Visible surface blood vessels, rosacea, benign vascular lesions, etc.
- Unwanted pigmentation (such as age spots)
The foundation of IPL therapy is the physical property of high-intensity light pulses at specific wavelengths, which penetrate the skin's structure to provide a therapeutic effect.
This high-intensity light procedure is particularly recommended for the treatment of oily, problematic skin prone to acne, as well as for improving skin condition and appearance.
In treating problematic skin, IPL leverages the strong bactericidal effect of light. A chemical reaction generates oxygen molecules that destroy bacteria, halting the progression of acne. Sebaceous gland activity decreases, resulting in reduced sebum production. Additionally, collagen and elastin synthesis processes are activated, minimizing pore enlargement and eliminating post-acne pigmentation.
The procedure is minimally painful, does not damage the skin’s surface, and requires no post-procedure recovery period. It is performed using the latest and most recognized equipment worldwide, effectively treating acne, resolving pigmentation issues, and reducing skin redness in the early stages of rosacea.
