Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a state-of-the-art system and the latest technique in photofacial and hair removal therapy. The IPL system delivers high intensity, smooth and powerful pulses of light (not lasers) that greatly enhances the results of your skin rejuvenation or hair removal therapy. For skin therapy, IPL stimulates new collagen growth resulting in smoother, more even, healthier skin.

Penn Plastic Surgery's certified, state-licensed medical aestheticians or skin care professionals, will closely examine your skin or hair during your initial consultation to determine your eligibility for treatments. Our skin care professional will decide what is the right process for you and make a recommendation on the number of treatments necessary to achieve your desired goals.

You may need a spot or test patch to make sure there are no negative reactions. The treatments may also require application of a topical gel or anesthetic to "numb" the treatment area. Your aesthetician will use the hand-held IPL device to direct the intense light at the problem area.

IPL is a simple and fast technique. There is minimal discomfort. You may feel some warm sensations or a very mild stinging during treatment. After treatment, you can resume your normal activities. There is no down time.

You may have some pinkness or redness in or around the treatment area. There may be some mild swelling which will go away after a few days. In addition, you will need to protect the treated area from sunlight, tanning beds or other UV light.

You will start to see results after one or two treatments, depending on the nature of the problem. Some skin problems or hair removal will require several treatments before you see any difference.
