IPL uses light energy to accurately target and remove pigmented or damaged skin cells or hair follicles. Using a handheld device, your Nurse will target multiple wavelengths of light onto the skin. This light heats cells in the skin and breaks them down. The body then removes the damaged tissue naturally.
