What is an IPL FotoFacial?
-
PhotoFacial IPL (Intense Pulse Light) is a skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a photo-rejuvenation technique to treat a variety of skin conditions including age spots, brown spots, uneven pigmentation, sun damage, rosacea, and vascular lesions among others. The Nordlys system is the latest advancement in IPL technology and allows us to treat larger areas quicker with minimal discomfort.

Common Questions
How does IPL PhotoFacial work?
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a non-laser therapy that involves shining highly-concentrated, intense beams of light intermittently on the surface of the skin. The pulses of light target pigment and vascular irregularities, smoothing out the skin’s tone and texture.
IPL therapy helps to reduce the effects of aging, leaving clients with younger, clearer, and healthier-looking skin. Whereas laser therapy uses one particular wavelength of light, IPL therapy produces a spectrum of light
How much is an IPL PhotoFacial treatment?
An IPL treatment is $400 per session at regular price and as little as $240 with an Aesthetica Loyalty Membership. Learn more about Aesthetica Loyalty Memberships here.
Does IPL have side effects?
IPL therapy involves short, intense pulses of light being delivered to the skin. As a result, you may experience small raised bumps and redness in the treatment area shortly after your treatment. These bumps should vanish within a few days. Common side effects are redness and mild swelling, but most people can return to normal activities directly after the treatment.
How long is an IPL treatment?
A typical treatment can last anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes. Since there is little to no downtime, you can have an IPL treatment during your lunch break.
How many IPL PhotoFacial treatments will I need?
The ideal number of treatments depends on your skin and individual concerns. Most patients see results after one treatment. However, we may recommend a series of 3-5 treatments for you to achieve optimal results. Call us today at 801-785-8884 to see if you're a candidate for an IPL PhotoFacial.
