Facial Rejuvenation
Everyone wants to have a clear, perfect
complexion, but as we age nature has a way of sabotaging our efforts
with imperfections and sun damage. Intense pulsed light (IPL) is
a non-surgical, effective answer to the accumulated visible signs
of aging skin.
Our Palomar StarLux
system uses specialized handpieces that filter light from different
parts of the spectrum, allowing the ideal wave length to reach the
skin for treatment of age spots, facial spider veins, or sun damage.
Our esthetic nurse
has been using IPL since 1999 and has been trained in nationally
recognized treatment centers. Call for a free consultation and she
will answer all your questions and personally assess your skin.
In addition to
facial skin, the IPL treatments are suitable for neck, arms, hands,
chest, back, and legs. IPL spreads the light over a wider area than
a laser treatment, allowing faster coverage of the skin and quicker
treatments. Each pulse will create a beam of light, causing a flash,
an audible tone, and a mild sensation on the skin. The process is
safe, comfortable, and effective. You will be able to return to
work or other activities the next day. A mild sunburn-like sensation
may be present, possibly accompanied by minor swelling, Ice packs
can be used and symptoms are usually gone in 24 hours.
