IPL Photofacial: San Francisco Aesthetics
Imagine a more youthful looking you. Both the pleasures and stresses of life, along with the simple passage of time, tend to cause our skin to appear older. The signs of aging and sun damage are typically most visible on a person’s face.
While numerous treatments from simple creams to major surgeries exist to improve various facial flaws, skin specialists have always sought dramatic improvement with low risk and no “downtime”. Additionally, many conventional treatment options can only address one condition at a time, while they entail a prolonged recovery time, considerable pain and potential side effects.
Intense Pulse Light, commonly known as IPL, is one of the most popular treatments at San Francisco Aesthetics. It is a non-invasive treatment that erases skin damage without disruption of the skin’s surface, hence, no “downtime”. IPL can simultaneously treat a wide range of facial concerns safely and effectively, such as broken capillaries, skin discoloration, age spots, freckles, mottled pigmentation and the symptoms of rosacea.
How does it work?
IPL is most often performed on the face, neck, chest, and hands to erase the signs of aging. Our lasers are clinically shown to reduce wrinkles and improve the tone of the skin by non-invasively stimulating new collagen production.
What can I expect after an IPL treatment at SF Aesthetics?
The type of response heard from patients is that they feel like their skin is lifted. There is a decrease in pore size, the skin feels tighter, and there is a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.
By combining IPL and lasergenesis at San Francisco Aesthetics, we take care of noticeable coloration defects and also provide the skin toning, tightening, and textural improvement that patients are seeking. Non-invasive techniques for skin rejuvenation are being quickly established as a new standard in the treatment of mild wrinkles and overall skin toning. All patients show improvement after the treatment series. IPL helps collagen tighten and tone, reducing sagging.
