What Does IPL PHOTOFACIAL Help Treat On Your Skin?

IPL PHOTOFACIAL 

Sciton’s IPL Photofacial with Broadband Light (BBL) technology is a safe, dependable, and effective treatment for skin enhancement. It sets a new standard for treating skin conditions associated with acne, aging, loss of firmness, sun damage, and unwanted hair. BBL is one of the most powerful IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) devices in the world. New standards are set for treating skin conditions associated with active lifestyles, aging, and sun damage.

IPL Photofacial with Broadband Light Process

BBL (BroadBand Light) is an intense pulsed light (IPL) device that targets sun damage, pigment, and superficial signs of aging. It also promotes youthful looking skin. You can wear makeup and start working out after getting pigment treatment with BBL within 24 hours. You should refrain from consuming alcohol or working out for 72 hours if you had redness in the skin, rosacea or broken capillaries treated. The practitioner will provide you with specialized instructions regarding care post treatment. You may need 2 to 6 BBL treatments over a course of 1 to 3 years. It is recommended to give maintenance treatments performed. Your treatment provider will determine whether you are a suitable candidate or not during the initial consultation. Results and Recovery You should be able to see results in just 1 to 2 weeks. Exposure to natural and artificial light and the continued aging of your face will affect the longevity of your results. However, in most cases results last for anywhere from 6 months to a year.

Number of IPL Photofacial Treatment Sessions Required

Your desired results and skin condition will determine the number of IPL treatment sessions required. Your provider will customize a treatment based on your individual needs. Six treatment sessions are recommended for acne and four sessions for red and brown pigmentation.

BBL is a Newer Protocol

Sciton BBL was recently part of a Stanford study in which a unique protocol using varying wavelengths was employed. The two-step process helped in improving color, texture, and tone of the skin. This unique protocol produced superior results involving skin rejuvenation.
