IPL to remove vascular lesions or diffuse redness achieves the best results when the vessels are progressively destroyed without damaging the surrounding skin. The way to achieve such a result is with 3-4 treatments performed at weekly intervals with the best result seen after the last treatment.
IPL for photo-rejuvenation stimulates the skin, resulting in firmer, smoother and clearer skin following a course of treatment.
IPL to treat benign pigmented lesions require between 1 and 3 treatments performed once all darkened cells have shed – between 7-28 days. At each treatment visible improvements are made with an end result of 70-90% pigmentation reduction to be expected. To prolong the results patients should follow the recommended skin care routine strictly, including daily sun protection.
