As we grow older, the skin gets damaged with age, exposure to ultraviolet rays, pollution and stress. The areas of the skin that are most affected by these changes are the face, neck, shoulders and hands, as these are most exposed to outside elements. These areas may change color with time and develop sun spots, redness and broken capillaries. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial is used to restore the skin’s youthful appearance by targeting these abnormal pigments to bring back the original color of the skin.

The IPL Photofacial procedure is carried out by pulsing the skin with high intensity light. The principle of selective photothermolysis is seen here, since the darker pigments are more affected than the surrounding lighter skin. Sunspots shrivel and fall off in the days after treatment. Broken capillaries and redness also decrease. Good candidates for this treatment have a light background skin tone and are not tanned. Rosacea is another condition that IPL treatment is beneficial for. Several treatment sessions are recommended and are typically repeated at 3-4 week intervals.


Celebrity Laser Spa offers IPL Photofacials for patients seeking to restore the youthful appearance of their skin. They use the Palomar Starlux which is an industry standard among IPL devices. The device is ideal for treating different skin conditions and skin types. The handpiece with the device adds to patient comfort through contact cooling. There is virtually no pain during the procedure and it feels just like a very strong light flash on the skin. There might be some temporary redness after the treatment but that goes away within a few hours. The treatments at Celebrity Laser Spa are offered at very affordable prices and the medical spa has a track record of satisfied patients.
