IPL PHOTOFACIAL (INTENSE PULSED LIGHT)

At U Aesthetics, our IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments use advanced broadband light technology to target pigment, redness, and early signs of aging. Whether you're dealing with sun damage, broken capillaries, or uneven skin tone, IPL offers a gentle, effective solution with long-lasting results.

How It Works

IPL delivers controlled pulses of broad-spectrum light to the skin, targeting pigment and vascular irregularities without damaging the surface. By converting light to heat, IPL breaks down unwanted melanin and hemoglobin while stimulating collagen production for a brighter, smoother complexion over time.

Your provider will customize the wavelength and filter settings to safely treat your concerns based on your skin type and goals.
