 WHAT
IS PHOTO REJUVENATION? |
Photorejuvenation is a procedure intended
to rejuvenate the skin on the
face, arms, legs, neck, and
chest. It is performed in a
series of treatments of intense
pulsed light, or IPL.
Photofacial is perfect for treating:
• Sun Damaged Skin
• Red Spots & Facial
Veins
• Rosacea
• Acne
• Brown and Age Spots
• Wrinkles and Fine Lines
|
| HOW
DOES IT WORK? |
Photorejuvenation
is performed with a series on
Intense Pulsed light treatments.
The light penetrates the top
layer of skin and acts upon
the underlying layer of the
dermis.
The light energy seals small
blood vessels, destroys melanin
pigment, destroys hair follicles,
and stimulates cells to produce
new collagen which reduces wrinkles.
|
| WHAT
TO EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT? |
Results should
become especially noticeable
after several treatments, as
wrinkles, redness, and age spots
fade away.
Patients also enjoy a reduction
in pore size, and an overall
better skin tone and texture.
There is virtually no downtime
associated with photorejuvenationl.
Some patients experience slight
redness after their IPL treatment,
always lasting less than 24
hours.
