Photorejuvenation uses a series of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments at a frequency that targets pigmented cells. The light passes harmlessly through the skin and is absorbed by spots and lesions. The abnormal cells are destroyed, leaving only healthy tissue. IPL also stimulates the growth of collagen, fills in acne scars, treats rosacea, decreases pore size and gives skin a youthful appearance.

The skin is cleansed, prepared with gel and then treated with the light. Afterwards, the gel is cleaned off and replaced with sunscreen. Cold compresses may be used if needed.

Photorejuvenation's short treatment time, quick effects and lack of downtime make it popular. Photorejuvenation gives skin a healthy, youthful look and decreases the appearance of blemishes such as acne scars, brown spots and redness from rosacea.

The standard treatment is a series of four to five treatments performed at three to four week intervals. Some may be satisfied with the results from two or three sessions, and some may desire additional sessions.

Photorejuvenation is a safe, common and quick procedure with little risk.

Rosacea, age spots, enlarged pores, freckles and sun spots all respond well to Photorejuvenation.

No, you may immediately return to your normal routine and even apply makeup.

Your skin will be mildly sensitive and will need to be protected from the sun. Any swelling will be minimal and can be treated with cold compresses. Dark spots from the treatment should flake off after a few days.

Noticeable results appear after the first few treatments.
