A Photofacial is an FDA approved, non-invasive treatment that utilizes IPL or intense pulse light technology to minimize and reverse the signs of aging and treat a wide array of skin conditions such as: Hyperpigmentation, including sun damage and age spots, vascular lesions, including broken capillaries and rosacea, as well as acne. Depending on the wavelength, it will target specific chromophores including melanin (for hyperpigmentation), oxyhemoglobin (for capillaries) and the P. acnes bacteria (for acne). In addition, the heat causes micro-trauma to the dermis layer of the skin which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin reducing fine lines and wrinkles, toning, and tightening the skin for a more youthful appearance. IPL is unique in that it treats skin damage at the dermis layer without damaging the skin’s surface, so there is no down time. Offer includes a treatment for the face only.
