IPL Treatment: Intense pulsed light
Intense pulsed light is a non-invasive treatment used for medical aesthetic purposes to improve various types of skin damage and imperfections without damaging the epidermis. It is particularly effective for fighting pigment spots, dilated pores and rosacea.
Moreover, it is a relatively mild treatment which generally does not involve any recovery time and has few contraindications.
IPL Treatment purpose and benefits
Intense pulsed light acts on different chromophores and contributes to skin complexion uniformity, giving your skin a more youthful and healthier appearance. It works at different levels of the dermis and the epidermis, treating various skin degradations in the process:
- Type 1 alterations consist of uneven complexion, subcutaneous vessel dilation (rosacea) and the presence of blemishes.
- Type 2 alterations, on the other hand, refer to skin texture and structure, pore dilation, fine lines and skin roughness resulting from elasticity loss.
Laser treatments have been shown to contribute, in varying degrees, to the synthesis of a new collagen matrix that restores skin volume loss and skin firmness.
With the pulsed light treatment, you can regain youthful and uniform skin and rediscover the beauty of your face.
Intense Pulsed Light Treatment technique
Intense pulsed light makes it possible to reach the dermis without causing epithelial lesions. It acts on various factors of cutaneous aging: capillary hemoglobin (rosacea), melanin (pigment spots) and fibroblast activation responsible for collagen synthesis. As such, it brightens up your complexion immediately, giving it a firmer and more radiant appearance.
