One Of The Most Popular Treatments For Pigmentation, Age Spots, Spider Veins, Acne, Rosacea And Broken Capilleries
The combined bi-polar radio frequency and light energies of the IPL'S SR technology precisely and safely targets pigmented lesions such as freckles, sun spots and age spots. Vascular lesions such as spider vessels and redness from rosacea are also lightened and gradually fade. Cooling of the skin surface ensures additional safety during treatment. This is a no-downtime procedure. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

Before Treatment
You’ll be asked to stay out of sunlight before getting the treatment done.
If you’ve tanned recently, we’ll ask you to wait a while before coming in for treatments.
We’ll ask you to avoid medications that make you more sensitive to light, but always consult your doctor before stopping prescribed medications.
During Treatment
Treatments are quick and usually take about 30-60 minutes.
During the treatment, your skin may appear slightly red and swollen. This is a normal reaction.
You might feel a slight warming of the skin and mild discomfort during treatment.
After Treatment
You’ll be asked to avoid scented lotions, exfoliants, and aggressive scrubbing.
It’s normal for freckles and sunspots to initially get darker and they usually flake off within one to three weeks.
You might feel something like a sunburn after the treatment, but an ice pack should help.
