IPL Photofacial at Pines Aesthetics

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Photofacial is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that uses broad-spectrum light to target pigmentation, redness, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. This gentle yet effective technology restores a brighter, clearer, and more radiant complexion with minimal downtime.

At Pines Aesthetics Center, L.L.C., proudly serving Broward and Miami-Dade County, we offer advanced IPL Photofacial treatments to rejuvenate sun-damaged skin, even tone, and restore youthful radiance naturally.

IPL is perfect for clients seeking visible correction without aggressive lasers or long recovery.

What Is IPL Photofacial?

IPL is a powerful light-based treatment that penetrates the skin to target:

  • Pigmented spots

  • Vascular lesions

  • Sun damage

  • Redness and discoloration

The light energy converts to heat, breaking down unwanted pigment and blood vessels so the body can naturally eliminate them.

Unlike traditional lasers, IPL uses multiple wavelengths, making it ideal for treating overall complexion irregularities.

What Does IPL Treat?

IPL is highly effective for improving:

Pigmentation

  • Sun spots

  • Age spots

  • Freckles

  • Melasma (carefully and selectively)

  • Uneven pigmentation

Redness & Vascular Issues

  • Rosacea

  • Broken capillaries

  • Facial veins

  • Red acne marks

Skin Texture & Tone

  • Dullness

  • Uneven tone

  • Mild roughness

  • Enlarged pores

Signs of Aging

  • Fine lines (mild)

  • Collagen loss (stimulates renewal)

IPL delivers brighter, younger-looking skin with improved clarity.

Benefits of IPL Photofacial

How IPL Works

During treatment:

  1. Broad-spectrum light is delivered into the skin.

  2. Melanin and hemoglobin absorb the light.

  3. Pigmented or vascular spots heat up and break apart.

  4. The body naturally eliminates them, improving the appearance.

  5. Collagen production increases, enhancing firmness and texture.

Over the next 1–3 weeks, the skin becomes clearer and brighter.
