Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, often referred to as a photo facial, is a non-surgical treatment designed to enhance the color and texture of your skin. It can help reverse some of the visible effects of sun damage, also known as photoaging, typically seen on areas like the face, neck, hands, or chest. IPL can also be beneficial for addressing red, brown, or uneven skin tones caused by certain health conditions.

Both IPL and laser treatments can address a variety of skin concerns, but they differ in their approach. IPL therapy is generally gentler on the skin and often requires more sessions to achieve results similar to those of laser treatments. Laser therapy is more intense, with a longer recovery time, but it typically delivers more dramatic results in fewer treatments. Unlike lasers, IPL devices emit multiple wavelengths of pulsating light, allowing them to treat various skin conditions simultaneously. Depending on the specific issue, either IPL or laser treatment may be more effective.

When the skin is heated, your body naturally eliminates damaged or unwanted cells, helping to resolve the skin issues being treated. IPL can target multiple skin concerns at once.

After the treatment, you may notice a more even skin tone, giving you a younger appearance. Since the light only affects targeted tissue and leaves surrounding areas unharmed, recovery is typically quick.

1565 NM FRACTIONAL NON-ABLATIVE

The 1565 nm laser is a non-invasive treatment that uses fractional technology to address a range of skin concerns, particularly those related to aging and sun damage. This wavelength is designed to penetrate the skin at a deeper level, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture. It’s highly effective for treating fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and acne scars. The laser works by creating micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response, which promotes skin renewal and rejuvenation. One of the standout features of the 1565 nm laser is its ability to provide noticeable results with minimal downtime. It’s a popular choice for individuals looking for a gentle yet effective solution to refresh their skin without the need for surgery or extensive recovery. With regular treatments, the skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking, making the 1565 nm laser a go-to option for those seeking long-lasting, non-invasive skin rejuvenation.

The Lumenis m22 ResurFX™ is the only true fractional non-ablative technology. Unlike other fractional technologies, ResurFX™ needs only one pass to be effective, saving you time and protecting the patient’s skin. ResurFX™ uses a 1565 nm fiber laser and a very advanced scanner, which FEATURES more than 600 combinations of shape, size and density for optimal treatment. the CoolScan™ non-sequential scanning algorithm places each fractional spot in a controlled manner to protect the tissue from heat accumulation and overheating. the handpiece is equipped with continuous contact cooling, to increase patient comfort during treatment.

q-switched nd-yag

Q-Switched YAG treatments are a popular and effective option for addressing a variety of skin concerns, including pigment issues, tattoos, and certain types of skin discoloration. The Q-Switched YAG laser delivers rapid, high-intensity pulses of light that target specific pigments in the skin without causing damage to surrounding tissues. This makes it an ideal treatment for removing unwanted dark spots, sun spots, and age spots, as well as treating melasma and other forms of hyperpigmentation. The laser's precise action also allows it to break down ink particles in tattoos, which are then gradually eliminated by the body's natural processes.

One of the key benefits of Q-Switched YAG treatments is their versatility. They can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, hands, and even more delicate regions like the underarms. The treatment is generally well-tolerated with minimal downtime, and most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure. For tattoo removal, multiple sessions may be required depending on the size and color of the tattoo, while pigment issues often show noticeable improvement in just a few treatments. Whether you're looking to brighten your complexion or remove an old tattoo, Q-Switched YAG lasers offer a safe and efficient solution for a clearer, more even skin tone.
