What is IPL?
Unlike laser treatments that utilize a single wavelength of light, IPL emits a broad spectrum of wavelengths, similar to the flash of a camera. This dispersed and less concentrated light allows IPL to address multiple skin conditions at once. The light waves penetrate deeply into the dermis—the second layer of skin—without damaging the outermost layer, the epidermis. Pigment cells in the skin absorb the light energy, which helps to gradually eliminate brown spots and redness over time. Additionally, the treatment stimulates collagen production by delivering wavelengths to the deeper layers of the skin, enhancing the skin's firmness and overall texture.
What to expect during treatment?
During an IPL session, Sarah-Kate will guide the handheld IPL device over the treatment area. The pulses of light penetrate the skin, targeting pigmentation and other skin imperfections. A typical session takes about 30 minutes, making it easy to fit into a busy NYC lifestyle.
What is the downtime?
One of the best aspects of IPL treatment is the minimal downtime. After your session, you may experience some redness, akin to a mild sunburn, which usually subsides within a few hours to a day. Most clients in NYC find they can return to their usual activities immediately, making IPL a convenient option for even the busiest of schedules.

Broken Capillaries

.Acne and Acne Scars

How does IPL help existing acne?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments effectively manage existing acne by using pulses of light to target acne-causing bacteria and reduce inflammation. The treatment also helps decrease oil production by shrinking sebaceous glands, reducing future breakouts. Additionally, IPL promotes collagen production, aiding in the healing of acne scars and improving overall skin texture.

Reduces Inflammation
