What it is

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a non-invasive technology that uses polychromatic light pulses to act selectively on the pigment and blood vessels of the skin.


IPL – Intense Pulsed Light

What it's for

Indicated in the treatment of blemishes, redness, rosacea, signs of photoageing and skin tone irregularities, promoting a more uniform, luminous and balanced skin.


How it's done

Polychromatic light is emitted in controlled pulses, acting selectively on the target pigment and vessels through the principle of selective photothermolysis. Treatment is performed in sessions, with parameters adapted to skin type and clinical indication.
