IPL phototherapy

Targeted light with individual settings

Intense pulsed light is not a laser: it uses a broad wavelength spectrum, filtered and adjusted to target melanin or haemoglobin. A treatment plan can therefore address sun spots, diffuse redness, and small superficial vessels together.

Safe treatment starts with diagnosis. A suspicious pigmented lesion should never simply be treated with IPL; it requires dermatological assessment first. Tanning, skin type, medication, and sun protection also matter.
