IPL Laser Treatment
Treatment of Pigmented Lesions
Almost everyone that has spent time in the sun has spots to show for it. Different signs of sun damage and aging are freckles, age spots, liver spots and sun spots.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a non-invasive therapy that uses pulses of light energy to fragment and break down pigmented lesions. The pigmented lesion is targeted by the light and will initially darken and lift to the surface. Within 2 weeks the lesion will crust over and will naturally slough off the skin. Most patients require 2-3 treatments at one month intervals. At the end of the treatment the skin will look smooth, even-toned and free of pigment.
