What is an IPL Laser Treatment?

At MODERN Dermatology, our cutting-edge IPL Laser revolutionizes laser treatments. We use two lasers to effectively address multiple skin concerns in just one session. This breakthrough treatment provides unparalleled results and is a game-changer in dermatology.

Our advanced device, utilizes a cutting-edge technology known as intense pulsed light (IPL) to effectively diminish various skin concerns such as spider veins, vascular lesions, sunspots, hyperpigmentation, and redness. By emitting controlled pulses of IPL, the laser delivers remarkable results in minimizing the appearance of these issues, helping individuals achieve clearer, more even-toned skin. This double emission spectrum, can be used on both the face and body to target all sorts of pigmentation and vascular issues.

Our IPL Laser is a cutting-edge technology primarily designed for skin resurfacing. This advanced laser treatment targets a range of common skin concerns, including acne, stretch marks, scars, and melasma. By delivering controlled thermal heat to the upper and middle layers of the dermis, the laser stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, leading to improved skin texture, color, and firmness. The built-in cooling system ensures a safe and comfortable experience without the risk of burns. Overall, IPL Laser Treatments offer a highly effective and non-invasive solution for achieving beautiful and radiant skin.

The IPL Laser Treatments target a variety of skin concerns including:

• fine lines and wrinkles

• freckles

• age spots

• vascular lesions

• scars/acne scars

• sun damage

• spider veins

• stretch marks - the Icon Laser is the only FDA cleared laser for stretch marks!

What to expect from your treatment?

This procedure is done in two steps, known as "passes." During the first pass, we use Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to treat discoloration and facial veins. The second pass targets fine lines, wrinkles, and textural irregularities by utilizing fractional laser technology that stimulates collagen and elastin production for healthier skin.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, similar to the snapping of a rubber band, along with some heat in the treatment area. To reduce any discomfort, we use topical numbing cream and cooled gel packs. Temporary redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, are normal and should subside within a few days.

Patients will immediately notice improved facial veins, with brown spots flaking off within 1-3 weeks. Over the next six months, there will be gradual improvement in fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. This treatment is safe for most skin types and effectively addresses common signs of aging and sun damage such as wrinkles, sun spots, and facial vessels.

Typically, patients can resume their regular daily activities on the same day as the treatment, although some redness and swelling may require a day or two of social downtime.

How many treatments will I need?

With this procedure, you’ll see benefits develop over a period of time and continuing for up to several months. While everyone is different, a series of three to four treatments is advised for the best outcomes.
