FAQ's
How many IPL Photofacial treatments will I need?
Most patients require 3-5 sessions, spaced 3-4 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. The exact number of treatments depends on your skin condition and goals.
Will I need time to recover from IPL Photofacial treatment?
IPL Photofacial is a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime. Some redness or swelling may occur, but most patients can return to normal activities after the treatment.
Is IPL Photofacial safe for all skin types?
While IPL is generally safe, it’s most effective for individuals with lighter skin tones. Darker skin tones may increase the risk of hyperpigmentation or discoloration, so practitioners should assess their skin type carefully. Alternative treatments may be recommended for patients with darker skin.
Can IPL Photofacial treat active acne?
IPL is not typically used to treat active acne. Still, it can help with redness, inflammation, and pigmentation issues caused by acne scars. Other treatments, like laser therapy or prescription medications, may be more effective for active breakouts.
Can IPL Photofacial be combined with other treatments?
IPL can be safely combined with other skin rejuvenation treatments, such as chemical peels or microneedling. Combining treatments helps address multiple skin concerns, including uneven texture, fine lines, and pigmentation.
How should I prepare for an IPL Photofacial?
Before your treatment, avoid direct sun exposure and tanning for at least two weeks, as this can affect your skin’s response to IPL. Additionally, stop using retinoids or harsh skincare products a few days before the session to prevent skin sensitivity during treatment.
