What is IPL?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to target and selectively destroy melanin, the pigment responsible for pigmentation issues like spots, freckles, and sunburns. It effectively improves skin conditions by focusing on melanin, absorbing light energy, and breaking it down, which helps to reduce discoloration and even out skin tone.
By using multiple pulses of light, IPL targets pigments in the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue. This makes it an ideal treatment for addressing various pigmentation-related concerns, such as age spots, freckles, redness, and even broken capillaries. After treatment, your skin tone becomes more even, and its overall brightness improves, providing aesthetic benefits as well.
IPL is commonly used to treat pigmentation disorders and can also be beneficial for improving skin texture and reducing signs of aging. It works by targeting melanin with the light pulses, breaking it up and allowing the body to naturally eliminate it.

Process:
- Skin Condition Assessment
The skin’s blood vessels and pigmentation issues are assessed, and treatment is tailored with different wavelengths. - Laser Application
Light of a specific wavelength is emitted to target only the necessary areas, which absorb the light energy. - Absorption and Breakdown
The absorbed light breaks down into tiny particles, which are then absorbed by the body and gradually eliminated. - Skin Improvement
Post-treatment, collagen production is stimulated, enhancing skin elasticity and texture.
