PEACHY SKIN CARE

What is Intense Pulsed Light?

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology is a breakthrough treatment that can correct a variety of benign skin conditions, such as facial skin imperfections, the signs of photo-aging, birthmarks, unsightly small veins, and other blemishes. It offers a safe, non-invasive solution that can be tailored to your individual condition and skin type, providing superior cosmetic results and outstanding satisfaction, through a new process called "Photorejuvenation".

How is "Photorejuvenation" performed?

A cold gel is usually applied to the area to be treated, and you may be given dark glasses to protect your eyes from the bright light. The smooth glass surface of the IPL handpiece is gently applied. You may feel a slight sting, like the snapping of a small rubber band. An anesthetic cream may be used, it is recommended to arrive 30 minutes prior to your appointment time to apply numbing cream. Treatment is generally administered in a series of 3-5 sessions that provide excellent long-term results, minimal adverse effects and high client satisfaction.

Why are multiple treatments necessary?

Depending on the number of conditions you are treating, and the severity of the individual problem, a series of five treatment sessions may be recommended. You can return to work the same day and resume all your regular activities. By dividing the full program into several treatments, the procedure provides gradual improvement with very low risk and it preserves the wonderful "no downtime" feature that people appreciate so much.

How do other treatments compare to Photorejuvenation?

While there are lasers that treat telangiectasia and broken capillaries, no technology provides the long-term improvement of the complexion and skin texture like Intense Pulse Light, all without interrupting your schedule and your life.

What conditions can "Photorejuvenation" treat?

• Imperfections from Sun Damage and Photo-aging.

After a series of treatments, you will see a significant reduction of unwanted pigmentation. The same treatment can be used effectively on the neck, chest, arms and hands. 

• Benign Vascular Lesions: Broken Veins and Capillaries

• The face has an extensive network of veins and tiny blood vessels called capillaries. Over time, aging, trauma, sun exposure, and certain lifestyle factors cause a number of them to break and appear as red streaks or blotches on the face. IPL therapy can eliminate damaged veins and capillaries by removing virtually all traces of these unsightly blemishes.
