IPL Photo Facials
( IPL) which stands for Intense Pulsed Light is a type of light therapy that uses a broad spectrum of light to treat skin conditions and sun damage. Also known as Photofacials, these treatments can be used on both face and body.
How Can You Prepare for the Treatment?
One of the first things to keep in mind when getting an IPL Photofacial is that you need to be tan-free. Why? With a tan, the machine won’t be able to accurately detect the specific areas and concerns that you want to be addressed, increasing the risk of being burned. You should avoid alcohol, aspirin, anticoagulants, ibuprofen, or anything that thins the blood.
