IPL (intense pulsed light therapy) is a cutting-edge treatment option available at Essential Aesthetics & Laser in Charlotte, NC, where Lori Alessandrini, a licensed aesthetician and certified laser technician, helps clients improve their skin's health.

What exactly is IPL?

IPL is a form of light therapy, similar to a laser treatment, but instead of a single wavelength of light, IPL uses a broad spectrum. This light penetrates down to the second layer of your skin (dermis) without harming the top layer (epidermis). So, how does this benefit your skin?

  • IPL can address a variety of skin issues simultaneously
  • No significant downtime is required
  • Settings can be adjusted to suit individual skin types and concerns

What skin issues can IPL address?

When you visit Essential Aesthetics & Laser, Lori customizes your IPL treatments to address a range of skin concerns. The versatility of intense pulsed light therapy makes it a preferred choice for many Charlotte, NC, men and women. Here are some of the common skin issues IPL can help:

  • Reduce the appearance of dark spots and evens out skin tone
  • Diminish redness and soothes inflamed skin caused by rosacea
  • Encourage collagen production, leading to smoother skin with less fine lines and wrinkles

How does IPL improve skin texture?

At Essential Aesthetics & Laser, the focus isn't just on skin tone but also on improving skin texture. IPL's ability to stimulate collagen production is a game-changer in texture enhancement. What changes can you expect?

  • IPL helps minimize the appearance of large pores
  • Enhanced collagen production leads to smoother, more refined skin
  • Over time, skin becomes firmer and more supple
