Reveal Radiant, Even-Toned Skin—Naturally

Whether it’s years of sun damage, lingering redness, or blotchy skin that’s bothering you, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy can help you achieve the fresh, even complexion you’ve been missing. This gentle yet powerful treatment penetrates beneath the surface to reduce unwanted discoloration and stimulate collagen—leaving your skin smoother, brighter, and healthier-looking. Ready to love your skin again? Schedule your personalized consultation at our Oakville medspa today and let’s explore what IPL can do for you.

Is IPL Right for You?

IPL photofacials are an excellent choice for men and women seeking to reduce visible skin imperfections with no incisions or invasive techniques. This treatment is particularly effective for:

Age spots and sun spots
Hyperpigmentation and melasma
Rosacea and facial redness
Freckles and uneven tone
Enlarged pores
Acne scars and minor blemishes
Fine lines and texture concerns
Broken capillaries and visible veins

If your skin tone looks uneven or blotchy and you're looking for a smoother, more luminous complexion, IPL may be the ideal solution.

How Does IPL Photofacial Work?

IPL uses broad-spectrum light energy that penetrates deep into the skin, targeting pigment and vascular irregularities while encouraging natural collagen production. Unlike lasers, which use a single focused wavelength, IPL emits multiple wavelengths to treat a wider range of concerns in one session.

The result? Clearer skin, reduced redness, and a more even skin tone—all with minimal disruption to your skin’s surface.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

Your Session

After your consultation, we’ll prep your skin and apply a cooling gel to ensure comfort. Using the Palomar Starlux 500, your provider will move the IPL device across your skin, delivering light pulses in a precise pattern.

Treatment Time

Each session takes about 15–20 minutes, depending on the area being treated. For best results, we typically recommend a series of 3 to 5 sessions, spaced one month apart.

Comfort Level

Most clients describe the sensation as similar to a quick rubber band snap—tolerable and short-lived. If needed, we can offer additional cooling to keep you comfortable.

Aftercare & Results

Following your IPL treatment:

You may notice mild redness, warmth, or slight swelling, similar to a mild sunburn.
Pigmented spots may darken before flaking off naturally in the days following treatment.
Makeup can be applied right away, though we recommend avoiding sun exposure for at least a week.
Regular sunscreen use is essential to protect your skin and maintain results.

You’ll begin to see improvements within a few days, with full results developing over 1–2 weeks. With proper care, your results can last for months or even years.
