IPL Laser in Tallahassee

If you’re looking for a safe, effective way to address skin discoloration and rejuvenate your appearance, consider a treatment with our intense pulsed light (IPL) laser at Tallahassee Plastic Surgery Clinic. Utilizing the latest in light-based technology, the Cutera® xeo+ Limelight™ IPL laser is a cutting-edge photofacial procedure that is quick, comfortable, and designed to deliver noticeable results after just a few sessions.

How Does IPL Therapy Work?

IPL is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure designed to improve skin tone and texture by targeting unwanted pigmentation. The Cutera® IPL laser emits pulses of light that are absorbed by areas of discoloration, breaking them down for the body to naturally eliminate.

This process makes the IPL technique ideal for reducing symptoms like:

  • Sun damage
  • Age spots
  • Freckles
  • Redness
  • Rosacea

Good Candidates for IPL Laser

IPL laser treatments are particularly effective for individuals with lighter skin tones who have visible pigmentation concerns and want a more radiant and even complexion. It is commonly used on areas of the body like the face, chest, arms, and hands.

However, IPL may not be suitable for individuals with darker skin tones, recent sun exposure, or certain medical conditions. A consultation with an experienced aesthetic specialist is essential to determine if IPL is right for you.

What to Expect During an IPL Session

During your IPL appointment at Tallahassee Plastic Surgery Clinic, the procedure begins with the application of a topical anesthetic for your comfort. Your cosmetic care professional will then use the Cutera® xeo+ Limelight™ device to deliver light pulses to the areas with irregular pigmentation.

Patients may feel a mild snapping sensation, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated. Sessions typically last 30-60 minutes, depending on the size and number of treatment areas.

Aftercare and Recovery

Recovery after an IPL laser session is simple and straightforward. Over the days following your appointment, treated spots will darken and gradually flake off, revealing clearer, more even-toned skin. Avoiding direct sun exposure and using sunscreen during this time is essential.

Multiple sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, may be recommended for optimal results. Your laser technician will guide you through recovery to ensure you achieve the best possible outcome.
