Photofacials may be your answer to clearer, healthier skin.

These are some of the most common statements heard in our center from our patients:

“I wish my face looked clearer, with an even skin tone and a healthy glow.”

“My large pores and dark sun spots really bug me.”

“Is there any way to reduce the redness in my face from my rosacea?”

Our answer:
Photofacials may help you!

What is a photofacial?
Photo rejuvenation (photofacial) is a remarkable and gentle treatment for damage to your skin either through sun, genetic factors, or rosacea. IPL (Intense Pulse Light) Photofacial focuses on deeper skin layers to promote new collagen production, and targets pigment and small vessels to improve skin tone, smoothness and appearance.

What does IPL Photofacial treat?
IPL can successfully treat a variety of conditions. Studies have shown treatments will significantly reduce or eliminate brown spots, treat unsightly blood vessels on the face, decrease large pores and restore your skin to a more youthful appearance.

What are treatments like?
Treatments generally take about 30-45 minutes with very little discomfort and little to no down time. After treatment the skin may appear pink, but this subsides quickly and make-up can be applied before leaving the office. Most patients will have a series of 3-5 treatments spaced about one month apart.

What should I expect from my IPL Photofacial?
Because the treatments are performed in a series, you will see more improvement after each treatment.

After the first treatment, the skin will look and feel smoother, and you will have a more even skin tone. Over time sun spots will fade, pore size will reduce, and fine lines and wrinkles will smooth out.

Rosacea patients will see progressive improvement with each appointment. Your skin continues to improve after treatment ends, and with the proper skin care products and sun protection, results can be maintained. Products to improve skin discoloration and texture include green tea products, Vitamin C, retinols and human growth factors. We can design a personalized regimen to suit your needs.

winter is the best time for photofacials When is the ideal time to schedule my photofacials?
The best time to treat your skin to photofacials is during the fall and winter, as exposure to direct sunlight is less likely and very often your skin is now showing signs of aging due to the summer elements.
