IPL technology is similar to a laser. However, a laser focuses only one beam of light on your skin, while IPL emits light from many different beams, like a photo flash. The light from IPL is further widespread and less centered like a laser. IPL penetrates the dermis, the second layer of the skin, without damaging the epidermis (the top layer), causing minor damage to the skin.
The pigment cells in the skin receive light energy, which is converted into heat. The heat dissolves the unwanted pigment to remove freckles and other blemishes. IPL can be applied anywhere on the body, to treat Rosacea and veins or to rejuvenate the skin. At Aesthetic Beauty Center we offer a free online or in clinic consultation with one of our skin therapists to assess your skin type and discuss your skin concerns.
