IPL Photofacials

InMode IPL photofacials are a widely used, effective skin rejuvenation treatment. Here are Youth Lab we harness the power of intense pulsed light (IPL) to address your skin concerns, from age spots to wrinkles, rosacea and spider veins, improving the health and appearance of your skin.

What is IPL Photofacial and How Does It Work?

Photofacials use intense pulsed light to treat your skin concerns. Unlike traditional laser treatments using one light wavelength, IPL emits a wide spectrum of light wavelengths to simultaneously treat several skin conditions.

The intense pulses of light penetrate your skin to target specific areas of pigment, like blood vessels or areas where melanin has built up to form an age spot. 

IPL can do this without causing damage to your surrounding skin cells, and the energy from the light also stimulates collagen production and promotes skin rejuvenation.

Using IPL photofacials we can target pigment irregularities and promote skin cell turnover achieving a clearer, more youthful complexion.

Benefits of IPL Photofacials

IPL can significantly impact signs of aging by reducing your fine lines and wrinkles, improving overall skin texture and tone in your face, neck, arms, legs, and hands. Whether you’d like to look fresher or prevent signs of aging, an IPL facial can rejuvenate your skin quickly with little downtime.

IPL photofacials are an excellent treatment option if you have the following skin concerns:

What to Expect During YOUR IPL Photofacial Treatment

Before you treatment you’ll receive an indepth consultation with one of our expert team here at Youth Lab. We want to understand your needs and only suggest IPL if it’s the right treatment to reach your goals.

We start your treatment by applying a cooling gel to the skin, then we deliver pulses of light to your treatment area using InMode’s IPL device.

You may experience slight discomfort, but your photofacial won’t be painful. We can apply a topical numbing cream to minimize any discomfort.

IPL is considered safe, but you may have mild side effects like redness, swelling, or some discomfort after treatment. We’ll give you detailed aftercare advice, including avoiding sun exposure and following a medical-grade skin care routine to minimize your side effects and optimize your results.

You’ll get the best outcome if you keep your treated area moisturized, using sunscreen diligently, and avoid harsh skincare products.

How IPL Therapy Compares to Other Skin Rejuvenation Treatments

Laser treatments and BroadBand Light (BBL) therapy are other popular methods for skin rejuvenation, but they work differently.

IPL uses broad-spectrum visible light, targeting your skin concerns with different wavelengths. It’s less targeted than laser therapy, making it more versatile for treating a wider range of conditions. However, it typically requires more sessions for comparable results. Laser treatments use a single, focused wavelength of light, making it more precise and often more effective for specific issues like deeper wrinkles, scars, or targeted hair removal.

BBL, a type of IPL, offers similar benefits to traditional IPL but is more precise and therefore can provide more intense and effective treatments.

We’ll help you decide on the best option for your skin concerns and goals. We want to empower you to make the right decision on your journey to beautiful skin, whether that’s IPL, laser, or BBL treatments.
