After gently and thoroughly cleaning your skin, nourishing and plumping the cells, take it a step further with Intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment. IPL is used by professionals for both aesthetic and therapeutic purposes including hair removal and photorejuvenation (e.g: the treatment of skin pigmentation, sun damage and thread veins). It is also used to alleviate dermatologic diseases such as acne.
IPL technology uses a high-powered, hand-held, computer-controlled flashgun to deliver intense, visible, broad-spectrum pulse of light. Filters are used to focus on specific portions of the light spectrum and chromophores. The resulting light has a spectral range that targets specific structures and chromophores (e.g. melanin in hair, or oxyhemoglobin in blood vessels) that are heated to destruction and reabsorbed by the body. IPL share some similarities with lasers in that they both use light to heat and destroy their targets.
A series of IPL treatments can be used for facial rejuvenation, improving skin laxity and collagen production. IPL is safely and effectively used for skin conditions such as: rosacea, acne, tattoos, scars and pigmented lesions.
At Moore Road MediSpa, they use the Viora-IPL for unprecedented levels of control and treatment customization while maintaining the highest levels of efficacy and safety. They treat four (4) chromophores: water, cell regeneration, porfin and acne. Viora has more than a decade of clinical expertise and ongoing innovation.
The IPL treatment is best used after a facial to deliver long lasting and life changing results, with no downtime, and is non-invasive.
Preparing and stimulating the skin before your procedure can help you to achieve the most optimal skin condition prior to a cosmetic procedure. In the mornings: Cleanse, apply toner, followed by nourishing moisturizer and finally apply broad spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen. Evenings: use gentle cleanser, apply toner and then nourishing moisturizer (for nighttime rejuvenating). Using the proper skincare pre and post treatment creates healthier skin that supports the renewal of skin with a youthful glow.
Make-up can be used starting right after treatment, as long as it is applied and removed very gently. Rarely, there is bruising after IPL treatment of vascular lesions but should be resolved in 1-2 weeks. For freckles and age spots, it is normal for the spots to look darker for 3-7 days. Crusting can occur, which my last up to ten days.
From sun damage to age spots, spider veins and more, get the best skin you can now with non-invasive, custom designed by exfoliating, deep cleaning, nourishing, stimulating, nourishing and IPL facials.
