IPL Photorejuvenation

As we age, our skin may begin to show signs of sun damage and lifestyle choices.  These facial imperfections can be dramatically improved through photorejuvenation to create younger, smoother, and healthier looking skin with little to no downtime.

What conditions can be treated using IPL?

• Spider Veins
• Age Spots
• Sun Spots
• Sun Damage
• Mottled Pigmentation
• Ruddy Complexion
• Freckles
• Rosacea

How does the system work?

Dr. Cohen uses the stat-of-the art Lumenis® One system.  Lumenis® One delivers a special range of wavelengths of light gently onto your skin.  The light is absorbed by broken capillaries and dark pigment or larger vessels and collagen.  New collagen fibers are laid down, giving the skin a renewed, more youthful appearance.

How is Photorejuvenation Performed?

A cold gel is applied to the area to be treated and you will be given dark glasses or goggles to protect your eyes from the bright light.  The handpiece is touched to your skin and pulses of light are applied and a slight stinging may occur.  Each treatment takes about 20 minutes and long term results can usually be achieved with a series of four to six treatments.

Why are multiple treatments necessary?

By dividing the treatments into four to six sessions, the procedure provides gradual improvement with very low risk, keeping the convenience of a “no downtime” procedure.
