What Can I Expect After the Treatment? IPL PhotoFacial treatments take approximately 30 minutes, depending on the area(s) being treated. Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subside within an hour. You will notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of your skin after just one treatment.
When Will I See Visible Results? Over the next 24-48 hours after treatment, you may see a slight darkening of pigmented spots; and in the weeks following, the pigment will flake off leaving you with a more evened-out skin tone. The skin will continue to look younger and brilliant over time with the most visible results after 1-2 weeks.
Protecting your skin from direct sunlight after treatment is a must. Wear sunscreen that is at least SPF 30 to give your skin a level of protection from the harsh sun rays. You must also avoid heat-inducing activities, such as hot massages and saunas.
How Long Do the Results Last? For optimal results, at least 3 IPL PhotoFacial sessions are recommended. The results can last for 6 months up to several years as long as the skin is cared for properly with a sufficient skincare routine and sun protection.
