What is IPL?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a skin treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target various skin concerns, including pigmentation, redness, and sun damage.

How does it work?

The IPL device emits light pulses that penetrate the skin and target the pigment or blood vessels causing the concern. This light energy is converted to heat, which breaks down the unwanted pigment or vessels. The body then naturally removes the treated areas, resulting in clearer, more even-toned skin.

Reviews from Our Amazing Patients

“I have been to every place in Redding and even in Chico for botox and fillers. I was amazed at how comfortable and confident they were in doing the injections since I get them around my lower eye area (filler), I couldn't have been happier with the service and the price. They have all been there for a long time and it is obvious they do continued education. I WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE AGAIN. I have also had two local dermatologists do injections and they just were not confident in what they were doing. I have been getting both botox and fillers since 1997 and I finally found a home at Disappearing Act. I would encourage you to go and give them a try.”

Got Questions?

What is IPL, and how does it benefit the skin?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a non-invasive treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target various skin concerns. It benefits the skin by reducing pigmentation, sun damage, redness, and fine lines, resulting in a clearer, more even complexion.

How does IPL compare to other skin rejuvenation treatments?

IPL is different from other skin rejuvenation treatments because it uses light energy to penetrate the skin and address multiple issues simultaneously. It is effective for treating pigmentation, vascular lesions, and improving skin texture with minimal downtime.

Can IPL be combined with other treatments like Juvederm?

Yes, IPL can be safely combined with other treatments such as Juvederm. While IPL targets surface-level skin concerns, Juvederm adds volume and smooths out deeper wrinkles, providing a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation.

What skin concerns can IPL address?

IPL can address various skin concerns, including sun damage, age spots, redness, rosacea, and fine lines. It is a versatile treatment that can improve the overall appearance and health of the skin.

How often should I schedule IPL sessions for optimal results?

For optimal results, it is recommended to schedule IPL sessions every 4-6 weeks, depending on your skin concerns and treatment goals. A series of treatments may be necessary to achieve and maintain desired results.
