IPL Facial – Cost, Benefits, and Treatments

IPL Facial, also know as photo rejuvenation, ipl photo facial, and many other names, is the newest way to get that younger, healthier looking skin we had as children. In this article I will discuss the costs, benefits and effectiveness of the IPL photo facial.

First let’s look at the cost, as we all think of that first. Can I afford it? When comparing it to the money we pay for all the the new fad creams and lotions we purchase in vain to get that younger look from a bottle, the cost is considerably more, however, the effects outweigh the success rate. The treatment procedures recommend 4-6 visits spaced 3 weeks apart. This is determined by the damage of the skin in question and can be between $350-600 per treatment. In all, perhaps as long as 18 weeks or 4-5 months, you may want to plan to spend between $1800- 3600.  This therapy could replace the need for painful injections that render us unacceptable for public viewing for 2 weeks, and, can cost $450 per cc. In that same aspect, peels and dermabrasions will become a thing of the past. Bravo for the skin-care industry for bringing women a treatment that will allow us to get back into life immediately with better results.

If you’re looking for a more natural, LESS expensive, and do-it-yourself way to rejuvenate your tired looking skin, there have been some successful reports from those trying certain facial rejuvenation acupressure methods. Click here for more information.

Secondly let’s discuss what IPL is. It’s a painless pulse ultraviolet light that targets the collagen in the deepest layers of the epidermis. Side affects are minimal compared with the painful effects of microdermabrasions and chemical peels of yesterday. Patients may experience redness, a temporary darkening of the skin. It’s suggested to avoid the sun on affected areas to reduce these affects. Tanning these areas in booths is also to be avoided while in treatment. The use of sunscreens following treatments will encourage more positive results and is therefore greatly suggested. Consider using hemp tanning lotions for their rehydration benefits. Sunless tanners can be just as eye pleasing to use and today we have much more pleasant choices on the market. I use a gel type that has an immediate result that washes away in the morning but allows you to see what skin coverage you have so missed spots can be prevented.

As advancement in treatment options for fine wrinkles, pigmentation irregularities, and other skin blemishes increase, there are a few options coming to the front for results and side effects. IPL photo facial rejuvenation is one of these front runners. With many benefits, one of the amazing claims is that it can reduce rosacea flushing by up to 90 percent. With that claim, it’s certainly something many people are going to give a try.

Ipl Facial Treatments

An ipl facial treatment is designed to take care of the damaged and aged skin in a more gentle way than the acid of washes and abrasiveness of methods we’ve all more than likely tried.

The gentler way submits precision levels of energy in the form of light to and through the skin surface. Since these treatments are spaced out over weeks, the amount and levels of light and energy used varies and the side effects are minimal. This energy from light helps stimulate collagen production. As this new collagen is created, we see and experience the softer and younger aged looking skin. This is how the fine lines are reduced and also what causes the reduction of rosacea redness.

Lastly the success rate with ipl facial treatment is extraordinary if the above mentioned skincare is followed. The noninvasive aspects are attractive and less frightening. The fine lines and dark patches we spend thousands of dollars on to cover, stretch, and smooth over will be replaced with younger smoother skin. The darker pigments will fade and we will be left with the desired look we all want! I, for one, can’t wait to get started!  Time to save up! Good luck!
