Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
IPL photorejuvenation is a type of light therapy used to treat sun induced skin damage, rosacea, broken capillaries, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne. IPL works by targeting a treatment area with wavelengths of light onto the skin. This light heats the pigmented cells of the skin and breaks them down. In the process of heating up your skin IPL encourages the production of collagen and tightens the elastin fibers. It stimulates the natural process by which your body repairs all kinds of damage.
Once produced, the collagen goes to work and improves the factors that age your skin. The body’s natural cell turnover process removes the damaged cells as they surface, creating a clearer complexion. Three to five treatments 4-6 weeks apart are recommended to achieve the very best results. Pre- and post-care instructions will be discussed in-office.
LED (Light Emitting Diodes) Treatments
Photobiomodulation treatments are a concentration of lights that deliver three different wavelengths of light simultaneously to manage skin conditions. All three wavelengths work together, the benefit of using all three wavelengths at the same time is that light absorbing molecules respond to different wavelengths of light energy. The results are an increased energy absorption in cellular activity at different tissue depths. This is a pain free, thirty minute treatment. For best results twelve treatments are recommended, three times a week, for four weeks.
