IPL Laser Therapy Celebration, FL
IPL Laser Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to rejuvenate your skin. As our bodies age, we lose collagen and elastin, which causes our skin to look dry, wrinkled, and saggy. IPL Laser Therapy stimulates new collagen production and helps increase blood flow while reducing wrinkles and sunspots on your face and body.
IPL Laser Therapy is offered at the Florida Cosmetic Center, located in Celebration, FL. We encourage you to contact our office at (321) 415-9826 to schedule an appointment to learn more about how this procedure can help you.
What is IPL Laser Therapy?
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. The non-invasive procedure uses a special light primarily to treat the signs of photoaging, also known as sun damage but also combats signs of aging and acne. The wavelengths emitted by an IPL device selectively target the deeper layers of the patient's skin to rejuvenate collagen production, reduce discoloration, and improve texture. This treatment can reduce the fine lines and wrinkles around the patient's eyes, jawline, cheeks, and forehead leaving them looking younger with minimal to no downtime or discomfort.
Who is an ideal candidate for IPL Laser Therapy?
IPL laser therapy is a great treatment for individuals who have a lot of sun damage or those who have a lot of acne scarring. This treatment can work on all skin types, but it is best suited for complexions with significant pigmentation differences in their impurities.
Unfortunately, not everyone is an ideal candidate for this type of treatment. We will advise other treatment options for pregnant women struggling with a skin disease or taking medication that causes photosensitivity. Photosensitivity is described as a chemically induced change in the patient's skin that makes them unusually sensitive to light. They can develop a rash or sunburn from exposure to a form of light at any intensity level.
To ensure an individual is a good candidate for this treatment, we must first go through a consultation. During this appointment, we will review the patient's medical history and conduct an examination of the area in question. We may also perform a patch test to ensure IPL laser therapy is safe for the patient. A patch test involves the doctor using the IPL laser therapy equipment to zap an inconspicuous area of the patient's skin to ensure no adverse reactions during the actual procedure.
The Advantages of IPL Laser Therapy
This non-invasive procedure is ideal for those who want to improve their appearance without having the time to undergo other treatments such as surgeries or a chemical peel. IPL Laser Therapy's several benefits include:
- Provides instant rejuvenation results
- No recovery time required after treatment
- Safe and effective alternative to surgery
- No scarring and minimal bruising
In addition to helping those struggling with pigmentation issues, this treatment can also help the appearance of spider veins and hair removal.
The Treatment Process
After the patient is approved for the procedure, we can begin. In the treatment room located in our medical spa, the doctor will use an IPL device called the Cutera® Xeo® to target specific areas of concern, such as fine lines or birthmarks. The device will emit a high-frequency light beam onto the patient's skin targeting pigmented lesions to stimulate collagen production while leaving the surrounding tissue unharmed. This process stimulates new blood vessels beneath the surface of the skin, helping reduce visible impurities.
Patients can expect to see results as their skin heals. Multiple sessions are sometimes necessary, depending on the patient's specific case. The doctor will advise after the skin examination.
Aftercare
What patients do after their procedure is just as important if not more important than the procedure itself. We highly recommend that patients avoid exposing themselves to the sun for the first 24 hours, apply sunscreen, and wear protective clothing for two weeks after the procedure. Patients should also avoid tanning beds, tanning sprays, waxing, chemical peels, and glycolic acid and retinol-based products during the first month after treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is IPL Laser Therapy painful?
A. Generally, patients do not experience any pain during the procedure. Afterward, there may be slight discomfort at the treatment site. However, any discomfort-related symptoms you experience should subside within 24 hours. Our team is also available to help address any concerns following the procedure.
Q. What cosmetic skin conditions can IPL Laser Therapy correct?
A. IPL Laser Therapy can help patients with multiple skin concerns. It is ideally reserved for individuals seeking help with their sun spots, dark spots, acne, birthmarks, and liver spots. Also, it can lighten or remove redness caused by rosacea and spider veins and even help with hair removal.
Q. Are there any side effects to IPL Laser Therapy
A. Like any other cosmetic procedure, there are potential side effects with IPL Laser Therapy. Though labeled safe, you may experience redness, a tingling sensation, swelling, bleeding, or scarring (extremely rare). These side effects typically subside within 24 hours and up to a week after the procedure for the more stubborn cases.
Q. How many sessions will I need?
A. Every patient is unique; therefore, results will vary. Some patients may require multiple sessions to see significant results while others may only need a few treatment sessions to see the same results. We will discuss an effective treatment plan for you during the initial consultation.
Q. How do I know if I am a good candidate?
A. Before the actual procedure, you will need to schedule a consultation. You can do this by calling our office. During this consultation, we will review your medical history and conduct an examination of your skin, possibly a patch test, to see if IPL Laser Therapy, or an alternative treatment, is an effective option for you.
