Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial In Chicago, IL
Intense Pulsed Light Skin Treatment
Intense Pulsed Light treatment is a non-invasive aesthetic treatment that can enhance your skin’s appearance. The therapy works by emitting light waves, which penetrate the skin. These light waves target and reduce skin problems, such as sun damage, age spots, freckles, visible veins, and rosacea. The energy from the light is absorbed by the pigment in the skin and visible veins, which then converts to heat. This destroys the pigment or vein without harming the surrounding tissue. IPL Photofacial can treat the face, neck, chest, hands, and other body areas. It’s ideal for anyone wanting a balanced skin tone and texture. After treatment, visible results become apparent within a few weeks and continue to improve over time. The results can last up to a year or more, depending on the individual’s skin condition and lifestyle factors.
