Understanding the Photofacial Skin Rejuvenation Procedure
Photofacial Skin Rejuvenation employs IPL technology, which delivers broad-spectrum light pulses to the skin. These pulses penetrate the skin’s surface, targeting melanin and hemoglobin to address pigmentation and vascular issues. The light energy also stimulates collagen production, enhancing skin texture and elasticity.
Targeted Light Therapy:
IPL uses multiple wavelengths to treat various skin concerns simultaneously.
Collagen Stimulation:
The heat generated promotes collagen synthesis, improving skin firmness and reducing fine lines.
Minimal Discomfort:
Patients may experience a mild snapping sensation during the procedure, often compared to a rubber band against the skin.
Quick Sessions:
Each treatment typically lasts between 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the area treated.
