Photo Facial/IPL

Intense Pulsed Light technology (IPL) is a treatment breakthrough that can give you the younger-looking skin you’d love to have. Far more effective than creams or so-called “wrinkle lasers”.

IPL improves the appearance of sun damaged skin on the face and body by treating broken capillaries, age spots, tone, texture and sun damage with brief treatments and no down time!

Who Is in Need of an IPL Photo Facial?

Patients who want to have skin that looks younger, healthier, and more vibrant without endless cosmetic products or invasive surgery are excellent candidates for a photo facial treatment. It is important to have realistic expectations.

People with darker complexions are not ideal candidates for IPL treatments.

Your Consultation

Patients who want to get an IPL treatment must set up a consultation at Spa Aesthetica. This will allow them to learn more about what the treatment involves and how they can best prepare for it.

During this consultation, patients will speak with a skilled and experienced skincare professional. The patient will need to tell the skincare professional about the issues they are looking to address. Questions regarding the patient’s health and medical history will be asked, and their skin will be examined.

Before the date of the photo facial IPL treatment, the patient must avoid tanning, sun exposure, and medications that can cause photosensitivity. This will help to ensure a safe treatment.

What Is a Photo Facial Like?

An IPL photo facial treatment typically only takes around 30 minutes to an hour to perform. The IPL handpiece is held over the treatment area, and pulses of light are emitted. No anesthesia is required.

Photo Facial/IPL Aftercare

There are no long recovery periods involved with IPL photo facial treatments. Patients can return to their regular activities right after their session. Exposure to heat or the sun should be avoided for a few hours following the treatment, since the skin will be more sensitive for a time.

How Much Does a Photo Facial/IPL Cost?

The cost of a photo facial treatment can be impacted by several factors, which can be discussed during the consultation. Prices can often be affected by the number of sessions involved and the severity of the issues being treated.

“I have been very satisfied with the IPL treatments I have received over the past several years at Spa Aesthetica. My friends have commented how my skin looks so young, soft and clear. They comment over and over about how beautiful my skin appears and strangers also approach me and ask what cosmetics I use to make my skin so clear. Very positive experience!” Kathi B , Fullerton, CA  – 5 Stars
