Reasons Why You Need to Try IPL Photo Facial

August 1, 2022

IPL (intense pulsed light) photofacials are the perfect skin treatment for anyone who wishes to improve the look and feel of their skin. The treatment offers many benefits, and the team at Sunswirl Laser and Esthetics uses the technology to help clients achieve beautiful skin. 


These facials offer impressive results, including smoother-looking skin and reduced scar tissue.
IPL photofacials also help fight acne by killing harmful bacteria and reducing redness and inflammation.

It’s Versatile and Can Treat Various Skin Conditions


If you’ve ever considered getting a facial treatment, perhaps it was to address one or more of these skin conditions:


  • sun damage
  • rosacea
  • hyperpigmentation
  • brown spots
  • acne scarring
  • fine lines and wrinkles
  • uneven skin texture


The great thing about an IPL photofacial treatment is that it can treat all of these (and more). After your first treatment, you’ll notice smoother, brighter, and less-textured skin. Your new complexion will leave you feeling more confident than ever.


It Reduces Signs of Aging


Whether you’re just beginning to notice fine lines around your eyes and on your forehead, or you have deep wrinkles in your skin, you can reduce these signs of aging with an IPL photofacial.


In fact, we service many clients who are worried about aging. IPL photofacial before and after photos provide clear proof of the dramatic and effective results the treatment delivers.


The IPL photofacial treatment involves dissolving the first few layers of skin cells, resulting in cell turnover and a renewed group of cells that provide a younger-looking complexion.


While you will notice some improvements after your first treatment, significant benefits emerge when you continue with this treatment. Generally, five treatments deliver the best results.


It Has no Downtime


With other types of skin treatments, downtime may range from 24 hours to 1 or 2 weeks! With the IPL photofacial, you’ll see great, long-lasting results without the inconvenience of downtime. 


In most cases, there are no side effects from an IPL photofacial treatment. Some individuals with sensitive skin may notice slight redness, swelling, or brown spots. These reactions are temporary and clear up quickly.


It’s Quick and Easy


Don’t you love it when beauty treatments are just a quick in-and-out? Popping in and getting a treatment over your lunch break or before/after work is so convenient, especially when you have a busy schedule. 


That’s one of the reasons why an IPL photofacial is such a phenomenal treatment. Not only do treatments range from only 20-40 minutes, but the facials are relaxing. You can lay back and enjoy, while the IPL photofacial does all the work.


It’s Fairly Painless and Low-Risk


One of the best things about an IPL photofacial is that there are few risks and minimal discomfort. It is non-invasive, and intense pulsed light is a safe laser treatment that is almost painless. We use a numbing cream or gel beforehand to ensure that you’re as comfortable as possible during your treatment.
