IPL: Intense pulsed light

Rejuvenate and even out the skin on the face and hands with intense pulsed light, safely and effectively eliminating blemishes and small blood vessels.

What is IPL and what is it used for?

Intense pulsed light (IPL) is an advanced aesthetic treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to treat age spots, freckles, and small blood vessels on the face and hands. Its energy penetrates the skin, stimulating natural repair, eliminating pigments or blocked blood vessels, and resulting in a more even, brighter, and rejuvenated complexion. It is ideal for patients seeking to improve their skin's appearance with minimal side effects and a short recovery time.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments explained by Dr. Javier Pérez

Premium Clinic has upgraded its IPL equipment with a state-of-the-art machine, allowing for more precise and comprehensive treatments for all its patients. IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light, is a laser-like technology. Instead of a single wavelength of light like a laser, IPL uses a bright beam of light, in front of which filters are placed. These filters block most wavelengths except those absorbed by pigment and blood vessels, depending on the filter used. The light energy penetrates just below the skin's surface, affecting melanin (skin pigment) or blood vessels. The body's natural skin repair mechanisms then remove the pigment or blocked vessels, resulting in smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin. It typically takes 3-6 treatments to see significant results, and treatments can be spaced 3-4 weeks apart.
