What Is Photofacial Skin Rejuvenation?

Photofacial is an advanced skin rejuvenation technique that uses pulse light technology to reduce redness, uneven skin tone, and tighted skin

. Due to its noninvasive approach and immediate results, it is becoming one of the most popular skin care procedures to reduce the signs of aging and correct minor skin imperfections.

What can Photofacial treat?

Photofacial is very effect for treating skin discoloration. Skin tightening is only mild to moderate at best. Photofacials can reduce red face from Rosacea or other conditions causing red, flushed skin, broken capillaries and veins. Photofacials are also very effective at reducing uneven pigmentation and aging spots. In addition to the face, this technology can be used almost anywhere on the body, including the hands, forearms, neck, and upper chest.

How does it work?

The procedure uses intensed pulse light (IPL) to focus energy on the area of skin to be improved. Different modules are used to target different types of discoloration in the skin. Only the skin tissue of concern is treated and the surrounding healthy skin tissue is left untouched. An additional module called Skintyte uses light energy to help stimulate collagen production which in turn helps to soften and improve the appearance of wrinkles and discoloring, creating a more youthful overall glow.

What can I expect from treatment?

Photofacial treatment is noninvasive and requires little to no recovery time. Treatment can be performed in as little as 15 to 30 minutes and you can return to your regular daily activities. Immediately after treatment you may notice some initial redness and capillary exposure. This will fade and you will often enjoy the effects of your Photofacial following your first treatment. To produce the desired results, three to seven treatments are usually recommended and are spaced two to three weeks apart. Patients with Rosacea should slowly begin to notice the evening out of the red tones for a more natural complexion.

Does it hurt and is it safe?

Since photofacial is noninvasive, it is one of the safest techniques used for facial and skin rejuvenation. It is virtually pain free. Some describe it as a mild rubber band type popping sensation as the light energy pulses over the skin. Patients who are concerned about pain can ask their doctor to provide a topical anesthesia before treatment. Most patients do not experience any lasting pain following treatment with the exception of some bruising or redness that may occur with sensitive skin. The advanced light energy system of Photofacial has been used successfully in millions of applications, providing patients with younger, smoother feeling skin.

Always adhere to your doctors instructions following treatment. Avoid sun exposure before and after photofacial treatements. Exposure and tanning before treatment may occasionally lead to adverse effects such as blistering and dyspigmentation of the skin. Sun exposure following treatment can lead to recurrence of skin discoloration as well. Always wear sunscreen to maximize and sustain your results.
