Are you dreaming of clear, youthful skin? Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment may be the solution you’ve been looking for. At Key Laser Institute, we are proud to offer IPL treatments tailored to meet your skin rejuvenation needs. IPL, often referred to as BroadBand Light Laser or BBL Laser, is a non-invasive method that uses high-intensity pulses of light to improve the appearance of your skin. From reducing redness and age spots to treating sun damage and more, the results can be transformative.
What to Expect from Your IPL Treatment
IPL treatments, including BBL Photofacial sessions, are designed to tackle a variety of skin concerns. With the guiding expertise of Dr. Douglas Key and his team, IPL offers significant improvements without the downtime associated with more invasive procedures. It’s a versatile treatment, helping with issues like rosacea, pigmentation, and even unwanted hair in some cases. The broad reach of the light energy encourages your skin to produce more collagen, which in turn enhances your skin’s overall texture and tone.
Pre-Treatment Precautions
Before undergoing IPL treatment at Key Laser Institute, there are several pre-treatment precautions you should follow to ensure optimal results. For at least two weeks prior to your session, avoid sun exposure and tanning beds. Your skin should be free of any tanning to reduce the risk of adverse effects. It’s also advisable to stop using retinoids and certain skin products that may increase sensitivity to light for at least a week before your treatment. Make sure to discuss any medications or skin conditions with our team to tailor your treatment plan effectively.
Post-Treatment Care
After your IPL session, your skin may appear red or slightly swollen, which is perfectly normal and usually subsides within a day or two. To maximize the benefits of your treatment, keep your skin hydrated with a gentle moisturizer and avoid sun exposure. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to protect your skin and preserve the rejuvenating effects of the treatment. Our team at Key Laser Institute is always available to provide you with personalized aftercare advice to help your skin heal beautifully.
