Intense Pulsed Light (IPL™) technology is a treatment breakthrough that can correct a variety of benign skin conditions, such as facial skin imperfections and the signs of photo-aging. These conditions appear as broken capillaries, broken ("spider") veins, large areas of erythema (redness), benign brown pigment, age spots (sun-induced freckling), and mottled (uneven) pigmentation. It offers a safe, non-invasive solution that can be tailored to your individual condition and skin type, providing superior cosmetic results and outstanding satisfaction, through a process called photorejuvenation.

Our practice utilizes the Lumenis One which is a true fourth generation Intense Pulsed Light (IPL™) system with patented state-of-the-art technology. It optimizes power, pulsing and light delivery to provide maximum results, comfort and safety. Lumenis invented IPL technology and continues to perfect it. Lumenis IPL is the "gold standard" and Lumenis One is the flagship system. While other physician practices and spas may promote similar treatments with cheaper, lower-powered technology, there is a visible difference in results. Our practice believes in providing only the very best treatment for our patients and has made the investment in the Lumenis One.

Lumenis One delivers a special range of wavelengths of light in customizable pulses through a sapphire tip placed gently onto your skin. The light is absorbed either superficially by broken capillaries and dark pigment or deeper by larger vessels and collagen. Dilated capillaries coagulate, pigmented lesions darken and then peel off and new collagen fibers are laid down, giving the skin a renewed and more youthful appearance.

A cold gel is applied to the area to be treated. The smooth glass surface of the IPL handpiece is gently applied to your skin and pulses of light are delivered. Most people feel a stinging, like the snapping of a hot rubber band, during parts of the treatment process. This sensation lasts only seconds and its intensity depends on the area being treated. An anesthetic cream may be used, but many find it unnecessary. Treatments are administered in a series of four to six sessions that provide excellent long-term results, minimal adverse effects and high satisfaction. Each treatment takes about twenty minutes.

Depending on the number of conditions you are treating, and the severity of the individual problem, a series of four to six treatment sessions may be recommended. You can return to work the same day and resume all your regular activities. By dividing the full program into several treatments, the procedure provides gradual improvement with very low risk— and, it preserves the wonderful "no down time" feature that people appreciate so much.

While there are lasers that treat telangiectasia (spider veins) and broken capillaries, other lasers that treat benign brown pigments and others yet that are used for resurfacing facial skin, no technology provides the long-term improvement of complexion and texture of the IPL Skin Treatments using the Photorejuvenation program— all without interruption in your busy lifestyle.
