Harmony® IPL Photofacial
IPL photofacials use intense pulses of light that penetrate deep into the skin, designed to reduce redness, pigmentation and wrinkles
How Does IPL Photofacial Work?
IPL Photofacial uses Intense Pulse Light technology to pass through the skin and directly target collagen, redness, and browns, located in the epidermis. The laser’s intense heat creates a reaction destroying the pigmented lesion. When this laser light is absorbed, it transfers heat to the region, which results in the lifting of the browns , bringing them closer to the surface. These lifted browns create a “flecking” or “peppering” affect on the surface which then after a week or two falls off the skin with the skin’s regular exfoliation process. The IPL laser light also tightens the existing collagen fibres and stimulates the production of new collagen. This treatment both tightens and rejuvenates for brighter, smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.
How Many Treatments Are Necessary?
The number of sessions required to maximize improvement of the skin will depend on each individual. However, most people will require a series of 3-6 treatments and can expect to need maintenance treatments in the future. Treatments are usually spread out over a 3 to 4 week period depending on the severity of the pigmentation lesions. (age spots, sun spots).
How Long Before I Can Expect Results?
Most treatments can be completed in under 30 minutes with results becoming apparent over the course of 2 weeks. While beautiful results can often be achieved with just one treatment, most patients will require 3 to 6 sessions to achieve their desired outcome.
