Pulsed Light Photo Rejuvenation
Written by:What is the pulsed light photorejuvenation treatment?
It consists of a rejuvenation of the skin (face, neck, neckline and hands) thanks to the action of a special light, called Intense Pulsed Light or IPL. With age, the skin reflects the damage caused by excessive sun exposure, pigmentary and vascular alterations appear that give it an aged, dull appearance, without homogeneity of tone and lack of luminosity. Thanks to the pulsed light photorejuvenation we can treat alterations such as spots, capillaries or couperosis, providing luminosity and homogeneity in the tone of the skin. Pulsed light photorejuvenation improves the synthesis of collagen at the dermal level, improving the texture of the treated skin. The latest generation platforms are one of the best able to perform a photo treatment rejuvenation light pulsed safely in a single session, without pain and with remarkable results from the first session.
What are the phases of photorejuvenation treatment?
In the first visit a complete clinical history is made and it is verified that the patient does not have any contraindication. The pulsed light rejuvenation photo treatment will last approximately one hour and consists of:
- Preparation of the skin of face, neck, décolleté and hands through a basic hygiene.
- A special conductive gel is spread and the treatment is carried out with the light. It is not painful, the sensation is a bit of heat to the skin, so it is advisable to cool the skin with cold and massage with aloe vera.
What results should I expect from the photorejuvenation treatment?
The immediate result of the pulsed light rejuvenation photo treatment is that the small facial spots increase its color. There is no peeling or ulcers, with which you can put on makeup. These facial spots (which are yours) will lower the intensity of their color in 15 days, in three weeks they will have disappeared and your skin will be radiant. After a month we always quote the patient to see the result of the treatment and if necessary a review is made. It is a very grateful treatment. The improvement is spectacular with results that last for years. It is ideal for people over 30 who have been quite exposed to the sun, have solar lentigines (small spots), smokers with devitalized skin and lack of brightness, as a treatment for small wrinkles, as well as for couperose and small telangiectasias. The results on the neck and hands are spectacular.
