IPL Pigmentation treatment is a non-ablative procedure that uses intense pulsed light to target melanin in the skin, heating and shattering the brown pigment. Damaged melanin is then removed either via the lymphatic system or micro-crusts on the surface of the skin and naturally sloughs off, resulting in a more even skin tone. Typically, this treatment is used to spot treat areas of pigmentation.

 

IPL Pigmentation treatment requires minimal downtime. Depending on the extent of the client’s concern, typically, 2 – 4 treatments are recommended at monthly intervals (face) or 6 – 8 week intervals (decolletage, arms or upper back), with maintenance treatments recommended every six months to 1 year.
