Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

In Bismarck, ND

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a cosmetic treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to address various skin issues. As the light penetrates the skin, it targets melanin and hemoglobin and heats and breaks down pigmented cells and blood vessels, which the body then naturally eliminates. IPL is commonly used for treating sun damage, age spots, freckles, rosacea, broken capillaries, and unwanted hair. The procedure can be performed on several areas, including the face, neck, chest, arms, hands, and legs.

IPL in Bismarck, ND, is ideal for individuals looking to improve their skin’s appearance without invasive surgery. Most patients notice improvements after the first few treatments, with optimal results typically seen after several sessions. Results can last several months, and periodic maintenance treatments can prolong the benefits. If you’re interested in enhancing your skin’s health and appearance, book an appointment with Embrace Ageless Beauty today to experience the benefits of IPL.
