Six reasons to love IPL skin treatments
The team at Essential Dermatology of Needham, Natick, and Marlborough, Massachusetts, works with patients who need skin treatments to address a wide range of imperfections, from fine lines and wrinkles to hyperpigmentation. With the help of our board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Michael Krathen, many men and women can improve their skin’s health and appearance. Let’s examine what IPL skin treatments are and why our patients choose them!
What is IPL?
IPL is an acronym for intense pulsed light, a special type of photo facial treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin’s appearance and improve its overall texture and tone. It can treat a myriad of skin concerns that can impact one’s appearance and allow patients to rejuvenate their facial skin with a single visit.
Six reasons to love IPL skin treatments
Below are just a few of the reasons why patients love our IPL treatments:
- Non-invasive. IPL is regarded as a non-invasive procedure, which means that no injections nor incisions are necessary. Because of this, it’s a popular option for people who wish to enhance the appearance of their skin without having surgery.
- Minimal downtime. IPL treatments usually offer less downtime than more intrusive procedures. It is convenient for people with hectic schedules because many patients return to their regular activities right away following the surgery.
- Versatile treatment. While IPL is often used to target pigmentation issues, including sun and age spots, it can also effectively treat other concerns, such as rosacea, acne scars, and unwanted hair growth.
- Customizable. Each patient’s skin is unique and requires personalized care. IPL treatments are adjusted to target specific concerns and areas of the face, making it a highly customizable treatment option.
- Long-lasting results. The effects of IPL treatments can persist for months or even years if skincare is maintained properly. This makes it an affordable option for people who want to see long-term improvements in the appearance of their skin.
- Boosts confidence. Seeing improvements in one’s skin can significantly impact self-confidence and overall well-being. Many patients report feeling more confident and satisfied with their appearance after receiving IPL treatments.
