IPL Photorejuvenation
Photorejuvenation with IPL
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology is the gold standard treatment to combat photoaging. Unlike traditional lasers, it emits a broad band of light that allows treating multiple conditions at the same time: it eliminates sun spots, blurs redness and rosacea, and stimulates collagen production. The result is a uniform, luminous, and rejuvenated skin tone.

Frequently Asked Questions
IPL is the gold standard treatment for photorejuvenation. It is highly versatile and indicated to illuminate the skin and eliminate sun spots, vascular lesions (such as rosacea), and improve overall skin texture.
It allows treating multiple skin conditions simultaneously, such as redness and pigmentation, leaving a highly uniform skin tone. It is a gentle, precise treatment with natural and lasting results.
The number of sessions varies depending on the state of the patient's skin and the goal of the treatment. Normally, between 3 and 5 sessions are recommended, spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart, to obtain optimal results.
After the session, it is normal to experience slight redness or a feeling of heat. A specific effect of IPL is that dark spots often temporarily darken (resembling coffee grounds) for a few days before gently flaking off, revealing clear skin.
Direct sun exposure must be avoided before and after the treatment. The daily use of broad-spectrum sun protection (SPF 50+) is essential to protect the skin and prevent the appearance of new spots.
The cost per IPL session varies depending on the area being treated (full face, neck, décolleté, or hands) and whether you choose an individual session or a recommended course of treatments for sun spots, redness, or dull complexion. During the initial consultation, we assess your skin phototype and condition to establish the optimal treatment plan and quote.
