IPL Photofacial
Intense pulsed light (IPL) is applied to the affected area, using a unique handheld device. The light will penetrate the outer layers of the skin and be absorbed by the redness or brown pigmentation. This action will lead your body to rid itself of these targets & create an improved skin tone, texture, and appearance. Our Photofacial is a non-invasive treatment that harnesses intense pulsed light to help improve skin conditions such as pigmentation, red blemishes, broken blood vessels, & brown spots. It is an excellent choice to help repair sun damage as well as treat rosacea.
We offer some of the most powerful technologies on the market.
