  • Before the Treatment

    1. Am I a good candidate for this treatment? / Will this treatment work for me?


    The best candidate is someone who has acne and/or acne-related inflammation on the face or body.


    For safety reasons, you may not be able to get this treatment if you have/are:

    • Metal or other implants in the treatment area
    • Current or history of cancer
    • Pregnant or nursing

    Excessively tanned skin

    2. I have darker skin – can I still get this treatment done?


    These acne treatments work best for light to medium skin tones. The treatment may work on darker skin, but there is a higher risk of discoloration because darker skin has more pigment in it. It’s best to consult with your treatment provider to see if the treatment is right for you.


    3. Can I do it during my lunch break?


    Absolutely. Exact treatment times may vary depending on the patient, but a single session typically takes 15- 20 minutes.


    4. How many sessions will I need to see results?


    Most patients receive a total of 8-10 treatments.


    5. How often/far apart should the treatments be?


    Treatments are usually done twice a week for a month. Make sure the treatments are scheduled 3-4 days apart.


    6. Do I need to do anything to prepare for the treatment?


    Make sure your skin is clean. Do not apply any lotions, creams, or makeup before your session, and stop using any products that might irritate your skin 2-3 days before. You should also avoid tanning. You may be advised to shave the area before your treatment. Remove all jewelry around the area being treated.

  • During the Treatment

    1. How long does a treatment session last?


    One session usually lasts 15-20 minutes, depending on the area being treated.


    2. What does the treatment feel like?


    The IPL treatment feels like a light snap or flick on the surface of the skin.


    3. Will it be painful?


    The applicator has a cooling feature built into it to make the treatment as comfortable as possible, but you might feel a bit of discomfort if you’re treating a more sensitive area, like the upper lip. If you find it too uncomfortable, let the operator know and they can adjust the treatment accordingly.

  • After the Treatment

    1. How will I feel after my treatment?


    Your skin can feel warm, like a sunburn, with some redness, but other than that, you really shouldn’t feel any different if you follow instructions for before and after your treatment.


    2. How long will the results last and are they permanent?


    It depends on the severity of your skin and how well you take care of your skin after your treatment. We recommend a touch-up session twice a month, then monthly. Once the acne starts clearing up, you can then increase the time between maintenance treatments depending on how your skin responds to the treatment.


    3. Is there any downtime?


    There is no downtime. You can return to your daily schedule immediately after your treatment.


    4. Do I need to do anything after my treatment?


    Avoid tanning for at least 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after your treatment, and wear sunscreen (at least SPF 30). You should also avoid hot baths, massages, or any treatment that requires direct contact with the skin for the first 2 days after your treatment. If you notice any blisters or scabbing, treat it with a prescribed antibiotic cream—always consult with your treatment provider first. You can go back to gentle washing and using gentle, non-irritating products immediately afterward.


    5. If I got a treatment on my face, can I put makeup up on right after?


    Yes, you can apply makeup immediately after your treatment if you use mineral makeup, but make sure you put on sun.
