INTENSE PULSED LIGHT: PHOTOREJUVENATION TREATMENT TO IMPROVE VARIOUS SKIN CONCERNS

Intense pulsed light is a non-invasive, non-ablative treatment that delivers high-intensity light into the deeper layers of the skin to improve Fine lines and wrinkles, vascular lesions, redness, broken capillaries, and sunspots. The range and wavelength of the light emitted during the treatment can be adjusted to accommodate your specific skin needs and concerns.

What is intense pulsed light therapy?

Intense pulsed light (IPL) or flashlamp therapy is a non-invasive and non-ablative treatment that uses high-intensity pulses of visible light to improve the appearance of the following skin problems:

Vascular lesions including spider telangiectasis, port wine stains, broken facial veins, rosy cheeks, rosacea, and red thread veins of the legs
Freckles and age marks
Facial lines and wrinkles
Removal of unwanted dark hair

The procedure of rejuvenating aged skin is referred to as photorejuvenation and requires a series of IPL treatments.
IPL may also be helpful for mild to moderate acne and stretch marks.

How does intense pulsed light therapy work?

IPL systems work on the same principles as lasers in that light energy is absorbed into particular target cells with color (chromophores) in the skin. The light energy is converted to heat energy, which causes damage to the specific target area. IPL systems are different from lasers in that they deliver many wavelengths (or colors) in each pulse of light instead of just one wavelength. Most IPL systems use filters to refine the energy output for the treatment of certain areas. This enhances penetration without using excessive energy levels and enables the targeting of specific chromophores (these are skin components that absorb light).

IPL therapy is considered a non-ablative resurfacing technique, which means that it targets the lower layers of skin (dermis) without affecting the top layers of skin (epidermis). The results are not as dramatic as ablative resurfacing where both the dermis and epidermis are injured to produce a much more noticeable overall outcome. The advantage of IPL therapy is its minimal downtime – a patient can often have the procedure done in their lunch break and return to work immediately afterward.

What do they do?

Vascular lesions

For the treatment of spider and thread veins, and some vascular birthmarks.
Light pulses targeted at the red-pigment (hemoglobin) in the blood heats and destroy the pigment without affecting the skin or other tissues.

Pigmented lesions

For the treatment of age spots, freckles, flat pigmented birthmarks, and other skin discoloration problems such as melasma/chloasma and erythromelanosis of the neck (poikiloderma of Civatte).
Light pulses targeted at the melanin in the skin’s surface which heats and destroys melanin to remove the discoloration.

Hair removal

For the treatment of unwanted hair.
Light pulses targeted at the hair follicle causing the hair to fall out and prevent further growth. Generally ineffective for light-colored hair.
May be used for hair in any location including underarms, bikini line, face, neck, back, chest, and legs

What does the intense pulsed light procedure involve?

Prior to the procedure your specialist practitioner should explain the process to you and clearly define your expectations of the treatment. They should be able to tell you whether or not the results you are looking for will be achievable using this method. It is important that the correct diagnosis has been made by your doctor prior to treatment.
IPL treatments are normally straightforward. Make sure the technician has been properly trained and is experienced in IPL therapy.

Avoid sun exposure in the days and weeks before and after treatment.
A topical anesthetic may be applied to the area but is not usually necessary.
A cold gel is applied to the area being treated. IPL devices often have integrated cooling systems.
The smooth, glass surface of the IPL treatment head is applied to the skin, delivering precise pulses of light to the area being treated.
Treatment sessions usually last about 20 minutes. A course of 4-6 sessions every 3-6 weeks may be needed to achieve the desired results.
Most patients can return to work immediately after treatment.

Throughout the treatment session, the patient must wear protective eyewear. IPL treatments are relatively painless compared to other facial rejuvenation techniques. The sensation has been likened to a light pinch or the snap of a rubber band, but some people find it distressing.

IPL applications:

Hair removal: Remove unwanted hair in different depths and thickness; armpit hair, hairline, beard, whiskers, lip hair, body hair, bikini hair, or any other unwanted hair.

Skin rejuvenation: Contract the pores and remove blackheads Face lifting up, smoothing wrinkles and pouches, whole body lightening and tightening.

Pigmentation: Effectively remove all kinds of pigment, such as a freckle, deep-seated speckle, cuticular speckle, corium speckle, age pigment, and chloasma.

vascular: Remove facial vascular lesions, red face, and red capillary.

Acne: Remove acne on face and body effectively, allergic acne, acne scar, blackhead, bottlenose.
Face lifting: Face lifting up, smoothing wrinkles and pouches, whole body lightening, and tightening.

FAQ ( Frequently Asked Questions)

What is intense pulsed light (ipl)?

Beginning in your early 30s, collagen and elastin production decreases and cell turnover begins to decline, making it more difficult for the skin to recover from injury and inflammation. These factors begin to express themselves on the skin in the form of brown spots and discoloration, visible capillaries, uneven skin tone, and Fine lines and wrinkles. Treatments with intense pulsed light help improve each of these concerns.

Also known as photorejuvenation or a photofacial, intense pulsed light is a non-ablative treatment that emits intense, visible pulses of light onto a targeted area without damaging the surrounding skin. The light energy is absorbed by melanin (responsible for skin pigment) and hemoglobin (red blood cells in the blood vessels). As a result, these structures become damaged and are absorbed by the body or brought to the surface of the skin where they will slough off.

Intense pulsed light is successful in addressing Fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, visible capillaries, and redness. While results may be visible after one session,

Who is a good candidate for intense pulsed light (ipl)?

Intense pulsed light treatments are ideal for individuals with light to medium complexions looking to improve Fine lines and wrinkles, discoloration, skin tone, sun damage, vascular lesions, or capillary inflammation. Because of the multiple wavelengths used during an IPL treatment, it can be adjusted for a spectrum of skin tones. However, fair skin that is relatively elastic and freckle-prone shows the greatest improvement.

Deeper skin tones are more prone to blistering and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, especially since melanin is one of the primary targets of an IPL treatment. An experienced practitioner may still have success on deeper skin, but additional treatments are generally needed, as the intensity of the wavelengths is decreased to avoid triggering a pigment response. Better results may be seen with laser treatments such as the YAG or Q-switched YAG laser.

There are also certain medications such as blood thinners that may increase the risks associated with photorejuvenation. You should discuss any medications being taken with your skin care professional prior to scheduling a treatment. Use extra caution if you are using medication such as Accutane as it increases sensitivity to the sun. In these cases, an IPL treatment should be postponed until at least 6 months after the medication has been completed. As a precaution, pregnant women should also avoid IPL treatments.

How do intense pulsed light (ipl) treatments work?

It is important to note that IPL is not a laser resurfacing treatment. While the two devices operate on similar mechanisms of delivering high-intensity light energy onto specific target cells within the skin, lasers operate using a single wavelength. IPL treatments deliver multiple wavelengths, which allow them to target various conditions. They are also non-ablative, meaning that they do not damage the surface of the skin, whereas some laser treatments can be ablative.

The range and frequency of the light emitted by an IPL device can be adjusted and controlled depending on the scope of treatment and your individual skin concerns. The resulting light waves are “filtered” to target either Redness (hemoglobin) or dark spots (melanin). This light energy is absorbed by the target areas and is converted into heat energy, which damages the walls of the blood vessels or breaks up the pigment. These damaged blood vessels and pigment either rise to the skin’s surface or are carried away by the body’s lymphatic system.

As a result, intense pulsed light has been shown effective for age spots, vascular lesions, such as spider veins, and even some birthmarks. In addition, intense pulsed light may result in less flushing for patients with rosacea and other inflammatory conditions. It is particularly effective at improving overall skin tone.

When should I get an intense pulsed light (ipl) treatment?

Intense pulsed light may be administered throughout the year. However, any results achieved from this treatment will be minimal and short-lived without proper sun Sun protection. As you may experience redness post-procedure, it is recommended that a Sunscreen is applied daily and diligently. Extra caution should be exercised if receiving the treatment during summer or periods of sun exposure. The use of protective clothing and limited sun exposure is also encouraged.

Where should I get an intense pulsed light (ipl) treatment?

Although the range and wavelength of intense pulsed light can easily be controlled, the treatment is not risk-free and requires knowledgeable, experienced skin cares professional for the best results. Hypopigmentation (loss of skin color) or hyperpigmentation (darkening of the skin) may occur if the practitioner does not follow proper guidelines when adjusting the settings of the device to account for skin tone and type.

The cost of an IPL treatment will vary depending upon the sessions needed, the area to be treated and the machine used. Additionally, some machines are designed to focus on specific issues and are less effective on others. It is best to consult an experienced Hair & Skin Care Expert / Specialist to help decide which treatment and device will deliver the best results.
