IPL Photofacial FAQs
How does IPL Photofacial work?
IPL Photofacial uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to target specific chromophores within the skin. When the IPL device emits short bursts of high-intensity light, it is absorbed by pigmented cells (melanin) and hemoglobin in blood vessels. This absorbed light is converted into heat energy, selectively damaging or coagulating the targeted cells. This stimulates the body’s healing response, promoting collagen production and the replacement of damaged tissue with healthier skin cells, resulting in improved skin tone and texture.
What happens during the IPL Photofacial session?
During an IPL Photofacial session, you will first wear protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the intense light. The practitioner will apply a cooling gel to your skin to enhance comfort and protect it from excessive heat. Then, they will use the Quanta Light EVO device to deliver controlled light pulses to the treatment area. You may feel a mild snapping or warming sensation as the pulses are administered. The session typically lasts around 30 minutes.
What are the side effects of IPL Photofacial?
After an IPL Photofacial, you may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or a sunburn-like sensation, which subsides within a few hours to a day. Some individuals may also notice darkening or lightening of treated areas, but these effects are usually temporary.
Is there any downtime after IPL Photofacial?
There’s usually minimal downtime after an IPL Photofacial. You may experience slight redness or swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, for a few hours to a day. Most people can return to their regular activities immediately after the procedure.
When will I see the IPL Photofacial results?
You can expect gradual improvements in your skin’s appearance after an IPL Photofacial. Typically, noticeable results start becoming visible within a week or two after the first session, with continued enhancement over subsequent weeks as collagen production increases.
How long do the IPL Photofacial results last?
The longevity of IPL Photofacial results varies from person to person and depends on factors like skin type and sun exposure. With proper skincare and sun protection, many individuals enjoy results that last several months to a year or more.
