Uneven skin tone, visible redness, and stubborn sun spots can make skin look older or less vibrant than you’d like. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment offers a gentle, non-invasive way to target these concerns and reveal a clearer, more even complexion.
At The Brandow Clinic Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Kirk Brandow offers IPL treatments for men and women in Main Line Philadelphia and Somers Point, NJ. This light-based therapy can improve the appearance of your skin without downtime, making it a popular choice for people who want results that fit into a busy schedule.
What Is IPL Treatment?
IPL uses pulses of broad-spectrum light to penetrate the skin and target pigment, redness, or visible blood vessels. Unlike lasers, which use a single wavelength, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths of light, allowing it to address several concerns in one treatment.
IPL can help improve:
- Sun damage and age spots
- Freckles and hyperpigmentation
- Redness and broken capillaries
- Rosacea
- Uneven skin tone and texture
How IPL Works
During treatment, a handheld device delivers flashes of light to the targeted area. The light energy is absorbed by unwanted pigment or blood vessels, breaking them down so the body can naturally remove them over time.
Most people describe the sensation as a quick snap of a rubber band on the skin. After treatment, you may notice some redness or darkening of spots, which typically fades within a week as your skin’s tone becomes more even.
What to Expect
IPL treatments are usually completed in 20–30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. For best results, a series of treatments is often recommended, spaced a few weeks apart. Your provider will discuss your goals and create a plan tailored to your needs.
