During the IPL Fotofacial treatment, one of our trained professionals applies a cooling gel to the skin and then uses a specialized device that emits pulses of light energy onto the skin. The energy is absorbed by pigments in the skin and converted into heat, which destroys unwanted cells and promotes the growth of new collagen.

Is IPL Fotofacial Painful?
IPL Fotofacial treatment may cause some discomfort, but most people find it tolerable. The sensation is often described as a slight snapping or stinging sensation, similar to a rubber band being snapped against the skin. A cooling gel is applied to the skin before treatment to minimize any discomfort. In some cases, a topical numbing cream may also be applied to the skin to help reduce discomfort.
How Many Treatments Are Needed To See Results?
Most people require a series of 3-5 treatments to see optimal results. The treatments are typically spaced 3-4 weeks apart to allow time for the skin to heal between treatments. While some people may see improvements after just one treatment, most people will require multiple treatments to achieve the desired results.
How Long Does The Treatment Take?
The length of the IPL Fotofacial treatment depends on the size of the treatment area. Typically, a full-face treatment takes around 30 minutes, while smaller areas like the hands or neck may take less time.
What Is The Downtime After The Treatment?
There is typically little to no downtime after IPL Fotofacial treatment. Some people may experience mild redness or swelling immediately after treatment, but this usually resolves within a few hours to a day. In some cases, small scabs or crusts may form on the treated areas, but these will naturally fall off within a few days.
Is IPL Fotofacial Treatment Safe?
IPL Fotofacial treatment is generally safe when performed by a trained professional.

Before your treatment, you should avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanning products for at least two weeks. You should also avoid using retinoids and other exfoliating products for several days before treatment. On the day of your treatment, it’s important to arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. Your provider will provide you with specific instructions on how to prepare for your treatment.
What Results Can I Expect After The Treatment?
IPL Fotofacial treatment can improve a wide range of skin concerns, including sun damage, age spots, rosacea, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. After a series of treatments, you can expect to see a reduction in the appearance of these skin concerns, as well as an overall improvement in skin texture and tone. However, it’s important to keep in mind that individual results may vary depending on the severity of the skin concerns being treated and other factors such as age, skin type, and overall health.
