With IPL Laser Therapies – You Can Look Your Best
Just about everyone desires to look their best and to have smoother, better, or even younger-looking skin. At VIP Aesthetics, we use various laser therapies and treatments to correct many aesthetic skin conditions with fantastic results. Imperfections such as acne, scars, visible leg veins, excess body hair, undesirable skin pigmentation and uneven skin tone can make you feel embarrassed about your overall appearance. Despite your best efforts to ward off the signs of aging, skin will begin to “show your age”, and sag, wrinkle and become discolored or marked. Today’s most advanced technology to treat the skin and body is the use of Intense Pulse Light (IPL) lasers – that provide our patients with many options to achieve the look that they desire.
With our FDA-approved IPL treatments, the Doctor can correct your unwanted skin conditions: such as spider veins, brown (age) spots, inflammatory acne, uneven skin tone, excess body hair, and a variety of other (red and brown) conditions that may now be embarrassingly visible on your skin. Your treatments will be performed safely and effectively, and you’ll experience little or no discomfort or down-time. Results happen almost immediately, and problem skin conditions can be completely eliminated or controlled within a few visits.
Here’s How IPL Therapies Work:
Intense Pulse Light (IPL) lasers are used to treat areas of the epidermal (outer) layers of skin in a non-destructive and comfortable manner. The lasers create varying wavelengths of light and heat, and are complemented by a cooling device, so you remain comfortable during treatments. IPL is extremely popular and very effective in treating pigmentation issues, acne bacteria, vascular veins and lesions, as well as hair reduction. IPL is effective, safe and very easily tolerated by patients of all ages.
Facial skin treatments via the IPL laser process can clear all unwanted pigmentation issues. Discolorations, such as sun and dark spots, gradually fade after 1-3 treatments. The number of treatments necessary for correction may vary dependent upon skin type and the extent of the pigmentation. These procedures are not limited to certain areas of the body but are mainly done on the face, hands, legs, and décolleté areas.
IPL Unwanted Hair Reduction is also performed in a series of treatments because body hairs, as they grow, are in different stages their growth cycle. Once destroyed or damaged by the laser, the individual hair follicles will no longer be able to produce hair. IPL Hair Reduction treatment is easily performed on the legs, face, chest, back, arms/armpits, and bikini areas without pain or discomfort. Since hair growth cycles vary by body area there are generalities that can be made by the number of treatments necessary for clearance: Facial Area: 1-2 treatments; armpits: 2-3 treatments; Aall other body areas: 4-5 treatments. The number of treatments necessary can also vary by skin type.
IPL Laser Vein Treatments work very well in the facial and leg areas. The laser targets the hemoglobin to effectively treat red/blue spider veins, symptoms of Rosacea, facial flushing, and any other type of redness associated with the face. IPL also works well in lightening scars, and burns that have occurred to the face or the body’s skin. Facial veins typically are eliminated in 1-2 sessions and the number of treatments necessary for other conditions, such as scars or burn areas, will vary dependent upon the extent and type of condition being treated.
IPL Acne Treatments work very well to destroy the bacteria caused by inflammatory acne. Treatments reduce excess sebaceous gland sebum production and gives temporary inflammation clearance and relief. Typically, IPL is used as a therapy along with other treatments for acne, and is not a ‘stand alone’ protocol. IPL acne treatments work very well to reduce flare-ups and to alleviate inflammation – and provides very effective and fast relief for patients suffering from this skin condition.
