Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How does it work?
A. Lumenis® IPL with Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT™) enables your clinician to customize the treatment according to your skin type and desired results. Light pulses penetrate the tissue and create heat, targeting the skin imperfection in a controlled manner. The body’s natural process then removes the treated tissue, while collagen and elastic fiber stimulation occurs, resulting in a visible improvement in skin tone and overall appearance.

Q. When can I expect to see results?
A. Typically 2-6 sessions with 2-4 weeks in between are needed to achieve optimal results for most skin concerns.

Q. What can I expect after treatment?
A. Immediately following treatment, you may experience some redness, depending on your customized treatment settings. The redness will usually disappear within a few hours. In most cases, makeup may be immediately applied, and daily activities can be resumed the very same day. Typically your physician will advise you to stay out of direct sun for a few days following the treatment and to apply sunscreen.

Q. How does the treatment feel?
A. You may experience a warm sensation as the light is applied to the skin, but the treatment is gentle and should not feel uncomfortable.
