What is it?

IPL is a non-laser, direct light generator that transmits a bright pulse of white light to the skin via handheld wand and glass surface. Not only is this method preferred by those who would like to remove discoloration, it is also one that is renowned by those contracting Asheville laser hair removal services.

How does it work?

IPL utilizes white light to penetrate the surface blood vessels, reaching down through the various layers of skin.  The process invigorates collagen producing cells, leaving the outermost layers of the skin undamaged.

What can I expect?

ALC understands that safety is of utmost importance, and in any treatment in our Asheville laser hair removal measures or photofacial rejuvenation techniques.

During the IPL process, eye protection will be administered, and cool gel will be applied to the concerned area. During this short 20-50 minute treatment, the technician will maneuver the wand about the treatment area, stimulating cells with numerous bright flashes of light. After the treatment, there will be some initial pink discoloration, a temporary reaction to the IPL. Cold compresses are a great way to reduce the swelling and redness after the procedure.

Intense Pulsed Light Results

For the best IPL results, the client will need to schedule multiple sessions. Ideally, the person who would want to see dramatic results will commit to five sessions, spanning a couple of weeks apart. During the time between sessions, a person can expect the skin to settle. Returning to its natural color and texture, there will also be a decrease in fine lines and reduction in pore size.
