ONE tell tale sign of aging is pigmented lesions or age spots on the face, neck and body. With the use of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), these age spots are lessened or completely resolved. While Radiesse will increase volume, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) will address the visible skin. Together these treatments will provide more youthful looking skin.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a patented fluorescent pulsed-light technology that effectively treats facial redness, flushing, and brown spots or pigment problems on your face, neck, and chest. By carefully delivering a series of gentle light pulses to the skin, IPL treatments restore a more youthful appearance with no downtime, little discomfort, and minimal risk.
