How Intense Pulsed Light Treatments Work
Intense pulsed light treatments use a spectrum of light energy to target melanin pigment in the hair, the melanin of pigmented lesions, the hemoglobin of vascular lesions or the porphyrin molecules associated with P. acnes bacteria, while leaving the surrounding skin unaffected. Using this cutting-edge technology, intense pulsed light treatments are able to safely and effectively produce results with little to no downtime. Our patients generally return to their everyday activities immediately following treatment.
What to Expect
At your first visit, you will probably be asked to fill out a medical history form. The experts in our office will discuss with you a treatment plan, expected outcomes and possible complications so you can make a proper, informed decision. Upon completion of your initial consultation, you will most likely receive a spot test to determine the most efficient power level and wavelength selections for your skin type and unique characteristics. All applications need to be discussed with your physician prior to scheduling your procedure.
The Method
Intense pulsed light is a technology similar to medical lasers. Unlike lasers, however, intense pulsed light uses a carefully selected broadband spectrum of intense light to target the melanin pigment in the hair, the melanin of pigmented lesions, the hemoglobin of vascular lesions or the porphyrin molecules associated with P. acnes bacteria. Intense pulsed light is the gold standard for these indications because of the excellent results, comfort level and minimal risk of complications.
The key to safe and effective intense pulsed treatments is proper consultation to discuss your medical history, your unique physical characteristics and your expectations. Based on your consultation, your physician will determine the optimum wavelength and energy fluence level selection for your skin type and condition.
Comfort and Safety
To provide you with the most comfortable treatments, our office uses an intense pulsed light system that incorporates an integrated cooling chiller tip. This comfortable feature cools the skin surface, minimizing any possible discomfort and risk of tissue injury during each pulse. By cooling the skin surface, we can adjust the proper amount of light energy to penetrate and disable hair follicles, vascular and pigmented lesions and/or P. acnes bacteria without risk of harm or discomfort.

In only a few weeks, my face is now free of blemishes, and the best part is that I don’t have to use all those creams that dry my face and make it flake.
