Intense Pulsed Light Treatment
Dr DeJuliis’ most popular skin resurfacing treatment is Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), sometimes called Photofacial.
Often categorized as a laser treatment, IPL does not use laser technology. Instead, it delivers waves of concentrated pulsating light onto the skin’s surface and targets cells that have pigmentation. Once the light comes into contact with the skin, it turns into heat energy. The skin responds by creating new cells, and therefore new, healthy skin.
IPL can be used to diminish any aesthetically displeasing epidermal and dermal irregularities on the face, hands and body. Your skin will look radiant, smoother and more youthful, as confirmed by this recent Dermatology Times article.
