IPL Photofacial in Henderson

What is an IPL photofacial?

IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. Unlike a laser, which uses one wavelength, IPL delivers many wavelengths at once, so it can address brown spots and redness in the same session.

The light is absorbed by the pigments behind your concern. Melanin in sun and age spots breaks up and flakes away, while hemoglobin in small visible vessels absorbs light that reduces redness.

Henderson's sun is hard on skin, and IPL is one of the most effective ways to undo visible sun damage on the face, neck, chest, hands and arms.

IPL vs a VI Peel for sun damage

Both can brighten sun-damaged skin. IPL uses light to target brown spots and redness, while a VI Peel resurfaces the skin chemically.

Your appointment

What to expect from IPL Photofacial

Before your treatment

Avoid sun exposure and tanning in the weeks before treatment, since IPL works best on skin that isn't recently tanned.

During your treatment

A cooling gel is applied and you wear protective eyewear. Most people feel a quick warm snap, and sessions take around 20 to 30 minutes.

After your treatment

Skin may be pink for a few hours. Brown spots often darken and then flake off over several days, which is a sign the treatment is working.

After your treatment

Frequently asked

IPL Photofacial in Henderson: questions, answered.

How much does IPL cost in Henderson?

IPL pricing depends on the area and number of sessions. BHRC Henderson confirms it at a free consultation.

How many IPL sessions will I need?

Most clients see their best results after a short series spaced a few weeks apart, with occasional maintenance.

Why do my spots look darker after IPL?

Treated pigment often darkens before it flakes away over several days. It is a normal sign the light has worked.

Does IPL hurt?

Most people describe a quick, warm snap similar to a rubber band flick. A cooling gel keeps you comfortable.

Can IPL treat my chest and hands?

Yes. IPL is used on the neck, chest, hands and arms as well as the face.

Is IPL safe for darker skin tones?

IPL works best on lighter skin tones. For deeper skin tones, your provider may recommend a VI Peel or another option that treats pigment more safely.

Does IPL help rosacea redness?

IPL can reduce visible redness and small broken vessels that often come with rosacea. It doesn't cure rosacea, and a series usually works best.

Can IPL treat melasma?

Heat and light can make melasma worse, so IPL is often not the first choice. Your provider may suggest a VI Peel or a skincare plan instead.

When is the best time of year for IPL?

Any time your skin isn't recently tanned. Many people start in the cooler months, when sun is easier to avoid.
