IPL Medical Therapies 

What is the Procedure? 

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is a non-invasive, medical-grade treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to treat various skin concerns, including thread veins, pigmentation, and acne. IPL works by emitting light that is absorbed by specific targets in the skin, helping to break down unwanted pigmentation, reduce the appearance of blood vessels, and kill acne-causing bacteria. 

IPL therapy is effective and safe, with minimal downtime, making it an ideal solution for those seeking non-invasive treatments for common skin issues. 

What Does the Treatment Include Each IPL session is tailored to your skin’s unique concerns. The practitioner will adjust the intensity and wavelength of the light depending on whether you’re treating thread veins, pigmentation, or acne. 

Each session typically lasts 15 minutes, with the full treatment course requiring 3–6 sessions, spaced 2–3 weeks apart. It can take up to 10 weeks for the body to fully process and show the final results. 

Benefits of IPL Therapy: 

  • Thread Vein Removal: Reduces the appearance of visible veins and broken capillaries 
  • Pigmentation Removal: Targets age spots, sunspots, and other forms of pigmentation to create a more even complexion 
  • Acne Treatment: Reduces acne outbreaks by killing bacteria and calming inflammation, resulting in smoother, clearer skin 
  • Non-invasive with no downtime 
  • Safe for most skin types and effective for both the face and body 

Aftercare and Recommendations: 

  • For Thread Vein and Pigmentation Removal: 
  • Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours after treatment and use a high SPF sunscreen daily. 
  • Do not pick or scratch the treated area to prevent scarring. 
  • Refrain from hot showers, saunas, or excessive heat for 24–48 hours. 
  • Redness and swelling may occur but usually subside within a few hours. 
  • For Acne Treatment: 
  • Continue your usual acne skincare routine, but avoid harsh exfoliants or active ingredients (such as acids) for a few days after treatment. 
  • Use gentle cleansers and moisturizer’s to maintain skin hydration. 
  • Avoid touching the face to prevent reintroducing bacteria to the treated area. 
  • Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and promote healing. 

Potential Side Effects: 

IPL therapy is generally safe, though some mild side effects may occur: 

  • Redness and Swelling: A common, temporary side effect that typically resolves within a few hours but can be longer lasting 
  • Pigment Changes: Temporary dark or light spots may appear, but these usually fade with time. 
  • Blistering or Scabbing: Rarely, blistering or scabbing may occur as a side effect to IPL 
  • Sensitivity: The skin may feel more sensitive after acne treatments, so following aftercare instructions is essential.

Each IPL session lasts 15 minutes, making it a quick and convenient treatment option.
