What it helps
Good fit, not a fit
How it works
Intense pulsed light, or IPL, is a flash of broad-spectrum light. It is absorbed by brown pigment and redness in your skin. Spots usually darken for about a week, then flake away. It is not a laser, but it does similar work on the surface of your skin.
Your visit
We check that your skin tone suits IPL, and look at any spots. A changing mark gets referred to a doctor first.
Price first, including any add-on. If IPL does not suit your skin, we will say so and suggest another option.
Cool gel and goggles, then flashes of light across your skin. About 30 minutes.
Spots go darker, then flake off in about a week. Use SPF every day and stay out of direct sun.

FAQ
IPL targets pigment, and it cannot tell a spot from the skin around it if your skin has more pigment. That raises the risk of burns and dark marks, so we suggest a different treatment.
They can, especially with sun. Daily SPF is what keeps them away.
That is expected. They usually darken, then flake away in about a week.
No. IPL is a flash of broad-spectrum light, while a laser is a single wavelength.
Usually 3–5 sessions, a month apart. Some people are happy sooner.
Please do not. Tanned skin raises the risk of burns, and we may need to reschedule.
