Just like women, men are susceptible to hyperpigmentation, acne, fine lines, and rosacea. An IPL photofacial is a treatment that rejuvenates the skin for men with hyperpigmentation problems on their face and neck. IPL is not an invasive procedure, and it can be very effective and produce amazing results.

ABOUT THE IPL PHOTOFACIAL
An IPL photofacial works deep within the layers of your skin to treat many complexion blemishes (especially sun spots and brown lesions) with little or no recovery needed. This process sends intense wavelengths of light that warm the skin just enough to set off the natural regeneration process and boost collagen production. Ideal candidates for an IPL photofacial may have several problems with their skin, including sun damage, rosacea, hyperpigmentation (brown spots), rough texture, large pores, flushing, freckles, age, and sun spots, or spider veins. We will assess your skin to see if you are a candidate for an IPL photofacial during your private consultation.
The procedure takes about 20 – 30 minutes. To start the photofacial, the technician will clean and dry the skin to be treated before covering your eyes with shields. The photofacial is administered using a handheld device that passes over the skin while emitting pulses of laser energy. While most patients will feel some discomfort during the photofacial, it is generally tolerable for the quick treatment time.
While you should see visible results after the first session, your skin will attain the best results after several photofacial sessions. We typically suggest approximately 3 – 6 treatments scheduled around once a month for ideal results.
There is no preparation needed before your appointment.
There is generally no pain associated with this procedure. There is no recovery period associated with IPL treatment, but you will leave your appointment with your skin a little inflamed and red. This will go away on its own in about a day. We tell our patients to use an ointment on the skin to decrease irritation and speed up the healing process. It also helps to take an anti-inflammatory medication to ease swelling. After several days, the irregularities that rested under the skin will come to the surface and then begin to flake off. It’s critical to keep your skin protected from the sun at all times after a photofacial treatment and to not pick at your skin while it heals.
Love this little spot. I went in for my first facial with Danielle and she was very professional. She talked her way through it, as needed, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. After my facial, my face felt so refreshed and hydrated. I have dry/sensitive skin and I love that all the products she used were non-invasive. Oh, and a big bonus is the wine bar downstairs :)I would definitely recommend this place!!
