IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), or known as Photofacial, is a method of treating various skin problems by irradiating the skin with pulses of broad spectrum light to the deep layers of the skin. Photofacial therapy is effective mainly for the treatment of freckles, acne, aging skin as well as for hair removal.

This device uses multiple wavelengths that can be adjusted to treat specific conditions. The biggest feature and advantage of IPL therapy is that it is non-invasive and doesn't have any downtime.

At our affiliated clinic, there are 4 options of IPL to suit your needs:
· Hair Removal
· Collagen Rejuvenation
· Pigmentation / freckles / dark spots
· Acne

The Intense Pulsed Light emits multiple wavelengths into the skin layers to target pigment-producing cells. The light energy is converted to heat energy and destroys the cells that produce hyperactive melanin, which will lighten your skin. The blemishes will then flake off from the skin, revealing new, radiant and fresher skin.

When targeted onto the skin, IPL light is able to convert to heat and then damages the cells responsible for hair growth. Permanent hair removal is possible when the hair follicle is destroyed by the IPL. But if it is only damaged, the body hair will regrow in a few months, or years, depending on the individual.
