Aging and sun damage can lead to dull, unevenly pigmented skin. An IPL Photofacial is a skin-rejuvenating treatment. It uses a broad spectrum of light to target a wide range of facial concerns. At Manhattan Aesthetics, this versatile treatment provides clearer, brighter, more even skin.
An Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial uses light to restore more youthful-looking skin. While a laser uses one wavelength of light, an IPL Photofacial uses a spectrum of wavelengths that can target reddish and brownish pigments. It can also reach into the deeper layers of the skin, triggering cells there to increase their collagen production. Your skin produces less collagen when you age, but an IPL Photofacial can restore youthful levels.

The treatment involves minimal discomfort with an occasional tingling or stinging sensation. You can expect your session to last 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.

Most people experience some peeling, swelling, and redness that lasts up to a week. You can use gentle mineral makeup to make yourself feel more comfortable with your appearance.
