Say Goodbye to Stubborn Acne!

• IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): Uses broad-spectrum light to target and reduce acne, as well as other skin issues like hyperpigmentation and vascular lesions.

• DPL (Dynamic Pulsed Light): An advanced version of IPL that offers more precise control over light pulses, often leading to better outcomes for skin treatments.

These treatments emit light pulses that penetrate the skin and target bacteria responsible for acne. They also reduce inflammation and shrink sebaceous glands, leading to fewer breakouts.

The skin will be cleansed, and a cooling gel will be applied. You'll wear protective eyewear, and the device will be passed over the treatment area, emitting flashes of light. You may feel a mild snapping sensation.

Most patients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Discomfort is generally minimal, and cooling mechanisms in the device or gel help reduce any pain.

Typically, multiple sessions are required, usually spaced a few weeks apart. The exact number of sessions varies depending on the severity of the acne and individual response to treatment. Typically, 3 to 5 sessions are recommended, spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart.

Common side effects include redness, swelling, and mild discomfort immediately following the treatment. These usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. Rarely, blistering or changes in skin pigmentation may occur.

Ideal candidates are those with mild to moderate acne who have not responded well to other treatments. People with darker skin tones should be particularly cautious and are recommended to have a spot test to minimize the risk of hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.

• Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanning products for at least two weeks prior to treatment. Discontinue use of retinoids, antibiotics, and other photosensitive medications 1 week prior the session ( tretinoin 2 weeks prior the treatment).

Post-treatment care includes avoiding sun exposure, using gentle skincare products, and keeping the treated area clean and moisturized. Sunscreen with high SPF is crucial to prevent hyperpigmentation

Results vary, but many patients experience clearer skin for several months. Maintenance treatments may be required to sustain results, especially for those with persistent or severe acne.

Yes, these treatments can be part of a comprehensive acne treatment plan, which may include topical, chemical peels, or other light-based therapies.

IPL and DPL treatments use broad-spectrum light, while lasers use focused, single-wavelength light. Lasers can be more effective for specific concerns but may also carry a higher risk of side effects. Both have their own advantages depending on the individual's skin type and acne severity.

Pregnancy: IPL/DPL treatments are generally not recommended for pregnant women due to potential risks to the fetus.

Skin Sensitivity or Conditions: People with sensitive skin, active infections, open wounds, or certain skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema may not be suitable candidates for IPL treatment.

Tanned or Dark Skin: IPL/DPL works best on fair to medium skin tones with dark hair. It may not be as effective on darker skin tones due to the risk of pigmentation changes or burns.

Medications and Medical Conditions: Certain medications or medical conditions may increase sensitivity to light or interfere with the IPL/DPL treatment process. It's important to disclose all medications and medical history to your provider before undergoing IPL.

Recent Sun Exposure: Excessive sun exposure before or after IPL/DPL treatment can increase the risk of adverse effects such as burns or changes in pigmentation. It's recommended to avoid sun exposure or tanning beds for a few weeks before and after treatment.

History of Keloid Scarring: People with a history of keloid scarring may be at increased risk of developing keloids after IPL/DPL treatment.

Recent Chemical Peels or Dermabrasion: It's generally advised to wait a few weeks after undergoing chemical peels, dermabrasion, or similar treatments before undergoing IPL to avoid potential complications.

Photosensitivity: Individuals with conditions that make them more sensitive to light, such as lupus or porphyria, may not be suitable candidates for IPL treatment.
