How does IPL improve Skin！
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a cosmetic treatment that uses light energy to improve the appearance of your skin. While it can be an excellent option for many people, some should avoid IPL treatments.
Who should not have IPL?
If you have dark skin or a tan, IPL might not be your best option. This is because the light energy used in IPL can target the melanin (pigment) in your skin, which could lead to discoloration or even burns. If you have a history of skin cancer or have a current skin condition like eczema or rosacea, you should also avoid IPL.
Is the IPL worth it?
Whether IPL is worth, it depends on your personal goals and expectations. IPL can help reduce the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and redness, but it may not eliminate them. IPL can also help with eye veins and improve skin texture and tone. However, it can be expensive and may require multiple treatments to see results.
Comparison before and after IPL treatment

Will IPL remove hyperpigmentation?

Is laser better than IPL?
Laser and IPL use similar technologies to target the pigment in your skin, but laser is generally more precise and targeted. Laser treatments can also be more expensive than IPL.
Does IPL cause stubble?
No, IPL does not cause stubble. IPL targets the hair follicles to reduce hair growth, but it does not affect the texture of your hair.
Why is my hair still growing after IPL?
It is normal to see some hair regrowth after IPL treatments. IPL targets the hair follicles during the active growth phase, but not all hair follicles are in this phase simultaneously. This means that some hair may not be affected by the treatment and will continue to grow as usual. Multiple treatments are typically needed to see a significant reduction in hair growth.
