As we age, our skin loses collagen due to factors such as environmental stressors, UV exposure, lifestyle or genetics. Over time, collagen production slows down, leading to enlarged pores, and loss of skin firmness and elasticity. Pigmentary conditions such as melasma and age spots may occur concurrently, contributing to the aging process in the skin.
The I2PL is a non-invasive device that combines narrowband intensed-pulsed light (IPL) with non-ablative fractional and infrared laser technology. The narrowband technology delivers sub-millisecond pulses to safely and effectively treat a multitude of skin concerns. With nearly 20 years of research and experience, the I2PL is FDA-cleared to treat 21 dermatological conditions, including pigmentation, diffuse redness, and improving overall skin texture and smoothness.
IPL utilizes short bursts of light emitted from a flash lamp to target specific skin conditions. Selective Photothermolysis is employed, which allows for the treatment of a wide range of skin concerns, including hair removal, pigmentation, acne, and vascular skin disorders. For example, with brown spots, the IPL uses light energy to break up pigmentation into smaller bits for the body’s immune system to clear naturally, thus leading to lightening of the pigmented spot.
Both laser hair removal and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments work by selecting wavelengths absorbed by the target. However, lasers use a single wavelength in a specific color, phase, and direction. In contrast, IPL uses a broad spectrum of wavelengths composed of different colors, phases, and directions, allowing for simultaneous treatment of a wider range of skin concerns.
The IPL Device also has other functions that can benefit a wide range of skin conditions
