What is IPL Therapy?
IPL (intense pulsed light) therapy is a light-based treatment that targets discoloration, redness, and uneven skin tone. Unlike lasers, which use a single wavelength, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths of light to address various skin concerns simultaneously. This light energy breaks down pigmentation, reduces redness, and stimulates collagen production, leading to a brighter, smoother complexion.

- IPL for Face & Neck – 1 session $500 | Package of 3 $1,300
- IPL for Face, Neck & Chest – 1 session $800 | Package of 3 $2,000

How many IPL sessions will I need?
Most patients see results after one session, but 3-5 sessions spaced four weeks apart are recommended for optimal improvement.
Is IPL painful?
Most clients describe IPL as a mild snapping sensation comparable to a rubber band on the skin. A cooling gel is applied to increase comfort.
How long do IPL results last?
IPL results can last several months to years with proper skin care and sun protection. Many clients choose maintenance sessions once or twice a year to prolong results.
Can IPL be combined with other treatments?
Yes! IPL pairs well with microneedling, chemical peels, and injectables to enhance skin rejuvenation.
When will I see the full results of my IPL treatment?
Some improvement is visible after one session, but full results appear over several weeks as the skin naturally sheds unwanted pigmentation.
