IPL

Intense Pulsed Light, or IPL, is an effective technology used for photo rejuvenation. Also known as a photofacial, this treatment is an excellent option for the treatment of brown spots and sun damage on your face, chest, arms, and hands without the use of gel or topical anesthetics. Signs of sun damage and age spots generally flake off after one or two treatments, leaving clearer, younger looking skin.
