with IPL Photorejuvenation

We can not cure sunspots, once they have formed their way into the skin their cell memory will last forever, we can only eliminate the sunspot from view. Therefore, sunscreen compliance is mandatory after treatment to prolong your investment and keep your skin looking youthful and even-toned. It is impossible to stay completely out of the sun so as time goes on the sunspots will reappear. Re-treatment is recommended once a year or every other year depending on your lifestyle and goals.

Immediately after treatment, your skin will feel warm and sensitive to the touch, almost akin to a sunburn. This sensation is temporary and usually calms down within a day or so, but the redness may linger for up to a week. As the pigmentation lifts to the surface, it will appear darker and darker until it forms a crust on the surface of the skin that almost looks like coffee grounds or black pepper. This flakes away shortly thereafter, leaving your skin looking more even-toned.

We usually recommend a series of 3-6 treatments. Results are cumulative, meaning that the spots will improve and get lighter with each treatment. Remember: it has taken many years for the sunspots to accrue and it will most likely take multiple treatments to get the best results!
