IPL Laser Rejuvenation

What is IPL laser rejuvenation?

Intense pulsed light (IPL) laser rejuvenation is a minimally invasive procedure to treat a number of skin issues that affect the tone, texture, and appearance of your skin. IPL technology uses broadband light to break down discolored or damaged skin and superficial blood vessels.

Orlando Dermatology Center offers in-office IPL laser rejuvenation services to conveniently give you a younger, more refreshed appearance.

The board-certified dermatologists use their in-depth knowledge and experience to precisely administer IPL treatments and customize a care plan to your individual skin needs. They also provide meticulous after-care appointments to follow up on your laser rejuvenation results.

When should I consider IPL laser rejuvenation?

You may be a candidate for the IPL laser rejuvenation services available at Orlando Dermatology Center if your skin is otherwise healthy, but you want to address:

• Age spots
• Rosacea
• Sun damage
• Wrinkles and fine lines
• Hormonal pigmentation
• Spider veins and varicose veins

You may also benefit from IPL laser treatments if you want to eliminate unwanted body hair, even in delicate areas like your face, underarms, and bikini line.

The board-certified dermatologists complete a comprehensive skin evaluation to assess your condition and overall skin health. They also discuss your cosmetic goals and expectations for treatment results.

What happens during IPL laser rejuvenation?

During your IPL laser rejuvenation session at Orlando Dermatology Center, the providers help you get comfortable on an exam table.

When the IPL laser system cycles on, you may feel a slight stinging sensation similar to rubber bands snapping against your skin. The team can apply a topical numbing cream to your skin to keep you comfortable if you have a low pain threshold.

Treatment times depend on the size of the area and the condition you’re treating. You can expect to go back to your usual routine right away without any downtime. It’s common to have some mild redness and scabbing in the area that goes away within a few days. Many people say they experience sunburn-like symptoms following IPL laser therapy.

The dermatology team provides after-care guidance to help you protect your skin, which will be extra sensitive after laser therapy. For instance, you should avoid direct sunlight and wear sunscreen any time you go outdoors.
