At Dermapure, IPL Therapy is performed exclusively by highly trained medical aesthetic professionals. Proper training is critical when using this technology, as incorrect settings or technique can increase the risk of burns, pigmentation changes or skin irritation. Clinical expertise and judgment are essential to ensure treatments are performed safely.

IPL delivers filtered pulses of light at specific wavelengths, selected according to the condition being treated. Cut-off filters and precise parameter adjustments allow controlled depth of penetration, making each treatment highly personalized. By adapting the treatment to the patient’s skin type, condition and sensitivity, IPL Therapy can deliver safe, effective and natural-looking results.

Concerns Treated with IPL Therapy

Sun Damage and Pigmentation : IPL Therapy targets excess melanin in the skin. After treatment, pigmented spots such as age spots and sun spots may appear temporarily darker before gradually fading and flaking off. Over time, this process leads to a clearer, more even skin tone.
Redness, Blood Vessels and Broken Capillaries : The light energy is absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood, allowing IPL to target vascular lesions, such as visible blood vessels and broken capillaries. This helps reduce diffuse redness and makes the treatment suitable for redness-prone or rosacea-prone skin.
Acne and Inflammation : IPL helps reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation while supporting sebaceous gland regulation. This contributes to calmer skin, fewer breakouts and reduced post-acne redness.
Skin Texture, Aging and Collagen Production : By stimulating collagen production, IPL improves skin texture, radiance and early signs of aging. It is often used as a photofacial treatment to refresh and strengthen the skin.
Hair Reduction: IPL targets the pigment in the hair follicle, weakening it over time and leading to slower, finer regrowth. Effectiveness depends on hair color, skin tone and the treatment area.
Medical Use Around the Eyes : In a medical setting, IPL may be used to treat blepharitis associated with meibomian gland dysfunction. When applied around the eyelids under strict safety protocols, it helps reduce inflammation and relieve dry eye symptoms.

What to expect during your session

Step 1

Initial Cleansing

The first step is cleaning the skin before beginning treatment.

Step 2

Eye Protection

To ensure your safety at all times and protect your eyes from light rays, protective eyewear, like small blackout goggles, will be provided.

Step 3

Protective Gel Application

We apply a cooling gel over the targeted area. This gel helps the applicator glide over the skin’s surface, protects it from excessive heat, and improves overall comfort.

Step 4

Setting Device Parameters

Your specialist will adjust the parameters on the IPL device according to your skin specific needs. Continual adjustment during treatment may be necessary to accommodate your skin’s responses.

Step 5

Delivering The Treatment

You may experience an initial pinching sensation, but rest assured, the treatment is not painful. The applicator seamlessly glides over your skin, creating a diffused heat feeling.

Step 6

Cleaning and Post-Treatment Products

After the session, we remove the gel and cleanse your skin. This includes using hydrating cream and mineral sunscreen to calm and protect the skin.
