IPL (Photofacial)
Â
Dr. Cynthia M. Gregg offers her patients in Cary, Raleigh, and the surrounding North Carolina area IPL (Photofacial) Treatments to improve their appearance and confidence.
IPL, or intense pulse light, is a fast, effective way patients have been choosing as an innovative option to rejuvenate the skin. Facial imperfections or abnormalities can detract from your well- being and appearance, no matter how healthy and young you feel. Damage that has occurred from aging and sun exposure can be dramatically improved with IPL, Intense Pulse Light. This treatment can be used effectively on the face, chest, neck, arms and hands.
IPL treatments can be used to treat a broad spectrum of skin imperfections such as:
- Rosacea
- Broken Capillaries
- Age Spots
- Uneven Pigmentation
- Freckles
IPL technology offers sophisticated precision and ease of use. Treatments are gentle and offer gradual results with minimal patient downtime and risk of side effects. The light penetrates the tissue and is absorbed by either the vascular lesion or the pigmented lesion. The body's natural processes then remove the treated lesions giving the skin a more even and youthful appearance.
For optimal results, Dr. Gregg recommends a series of 4-6 treatments over a period of several months. Each session only lasts about twenty minutes, but with each visit the signs of youthfulness begin to return to the patients’ skin.
