In Lodi, CA
Introduction to IPL Photofacial
IPL Photofacial is a popular non-invasive treatment that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to address a variety of skin imperfections. Ideal for those looking to enhance their complexion without downtime, this treatment effectively reduces signs of aging, sun damage, and pigmentation issues.
What Is IPL Photofacial?
IPL Photofacial, or Intense Pulsed Light Therapy, involves the use of a broad-spectrum light source that penetrates multiple layers of skin. This light primarily targets the lower layers, leaving the top layers unharmed. The technology is used to treat sun damage, wrinkles, stretch marks, and age spots with minimal discomfort.

How Does IPL Photofacial Work?
The IPL device emits multiple wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin and are absorbed by either the melanin or blood vessels depending on the treatment target. This light energy then converts to heat energy, which destroys the unwanted pigment and shrinks broken blood vessels. Over time, the skin repairs the treated areas, resulting in a clearer, more youthful complexion.
