Photofacial
Better Skin Texture With Photofacials
Even at the low power levels used in rejunating IPL Photofacials, regular treatments provide gradual but cumulative improvement in skin texture, tone, brightness, pore size, and fine lines. Even underlying redness, acne breakouts, and uneven pigmentation can be improved with a series of Photofacials.
IPL Photofacials can be used anywhere on the body so they’re an excellent, no-downtime treatment option for firming crepey skin on the neck, arms, and legs.
Photofacial vs IPL
There’s a lot of confusion about the differences between Photofacials and IPL treatments, probably because both are done using an IPL device.
IPL stands for intense pulsed light and is sometimes known as BBL. Unlike a laser which emits a single wavelength of light, an IPL produces a range of wavelengths. Multiple wavelengths of light penetrate to different skin depths, stimulating cellular rejuvenation and resulting in improved skin texture, smaller pores, and less fine lines.
Photofacial vs. IPL: How Do You Choose?
The best choice depends on your goals.
Choose a series of Photofacials if you’re seeking gradual improvement in skin texture, pore size, and fine lines.
Choose IPL treatments if you want to erase brown spots, minimize redness, reduce acne breakouts, or treat dry eyes.
Photofacial Treatments and Skin Color
Since some of the light wavelengths produced by an IPL preferentially heat up dark pigmentation, it’s best to avoid tanning or using a self-tanner before a Photofacial. We recommend that men shave on the day of their Photofacial to decrease sensitivity over the beard area. People with darker brown and black skin types have an increased risk of hyperpigmentation from IPL and should instead consider alternatives like Microneedling or Microinfusion Skin Stamping.
