IPL™ Photorejuvenation is a non-invasive treatment that can erase various types of skin damage without disrupting the skin's surface. The patented IPL non-laser technology supplies a broad spectrum of light that reaches deep down to the collagen producing level of the skin and remarkably reduces the signs of aging. What areas can be treated? FotoFacial Treatments can be used on any part of the skin, but they are especially effective for improving the appearance of the face, neck and chest areas. What results can I expect? You can expect to see a gradual decrease in the skin’s overall redness, flushing and dilated capillaries. People with visible aging from the sun can expect to see their skin become smoother with a decrease in fine wrinkles, reduction in pore size and fading of sun spots. Many people who have rosacea will see an improvement in breakouts and will be able to decrease or discontinue their medications. What is a FotoFacial treatment like? Each treatment takes approximately 20 to 40 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated. A mild amount of discomfort can be expected from each treatment. A topical anesthetic is used 30 to 60 minutes before the treatment to reduce the amount of discomfort. The skin may appear red and flushed and tiny capillaries may appear more visible following a treatment. Brown spots will generally appear darker. All of these changes will gradually fade over a period of time. How soon will I see results? After your first treatment, your skin will feel smoother and will have a more even tone. These improvements are gradual and will be more visible after each treatment. Five treatments are performed for optimal results. Some patients will benefit from additional treatments. Who are the best candidates for FotoFacial treatments? Fotofacials are recommended to anyone who suffers from rosacea, or experience flushing and redness of their skin. People with early aging changes, sun damage, freckling, irregular pigmentation, or anyone who desires healthier more youthful appearing skin with a radiant look are also great candidates. Fotofacials are great for those who don't want to take the time off to heal from laser resurfacing or chemical peels, and active people who don't want to interfere with social or outdoor activities. |
