What Is An IPL PhotoFacial?
An IPL = Intense Pulsed Light = a PhotoFacial. The terms IPL and PhotoFacial are interchangeable.
At our office in Knoxville IPL PhotoFacials use the power of broadband light to improve the appearance of sun spots, rosacea, age spots, and skin texture. The treatment can also be used for dermatologic diseases like acne. In acne, the photo therapy helps kill bacteria and is very effective in a series. It is a popular treatment because its effective, affordable, and non-invasive.
What Do IPL Procedures Do
For Your Skin?
A handheld device is passed across the skin delivering pulses of broad spectrum light to the deep layers of the skin. It uses light to effect the skin on a molecular level, so there is no need to incisions or injections. It targets certain skin conditions by using a flash of light to send out broad wavelengths of light. For one of the best IPL PhotoFacials Knoxville patients can schedule a consultation today!
