What to expect during and after your treatment?
During your consultation, we will carefully examine your face, neck, chest, and hands to check for the kind of sun damage, vascular issues, and pigment irregularities that can be helped with IPL. We ask you to stay out of sunlight before getting the treatment done. If you’ve tanned recently, we’ll ask you to wait a while before coming in for treatments. We’ll ask you to avoid medications that make you more sensitive to light, but always consult your doctor before stopping prescribed medications.
Treatments are quick and usually take about 30-60 minutes. We use a handheld device to deliver light therapy. During the procedure, you y feel a pinching sensation. Some individuals have described this as a feeling similar to an elastic band being “snapped” on the skin. If needed, we can provide you with local anesthetic or chilling gel, but this is not normally needed.
After your treatment, your skin may appear slightly red and swollen. This is a normal reaction. Use an ice pack if needed to comfort your skin.
Avoid scented lotions, exfoliants, and aggressive scrubbing. It’s normal for freckles and sunspots to initially get darker and they usually flake off within one to three weeks.
