Discontinue usage of retinol, retin-A, and tretinoin at least 3 days prior to appointment. Any oral or topical medication prescribed by a doctor should be discontinued 2 weeks prior to treatment, unless otherwise instructed by your doctor. Must be off accutane for at least 6 months. Skin must also not contain a sunburn. If burning is present the appointment will need to be rescheduled until sunburn is gone and peeling has subsided.

Patients typically see results immediately after all pigment has sloughed off the treated area, after the first treatment. Redness, spider veins, and rosacea can sometimes take 2-3 treatments.

Three treatments are recommended for optimal results at 3-4 weeks apart.

IPL is not safe for all skin types. Too much pigment in the skin can cause hypopigmentation and should only be done on lighter skin tones. Please schedule a consultation with our Licensed Medical Laser Specialists to discuss which laser treatment is best for your skin concerns and skin type.
