What is IPL Photorejuvenation?

The Lumenis® IPL Photorejuvenation treatment is recommended by practitioners across the country due to its noticeable results and demonstrated safety. 

This skin health technology exposes the skin to safe light frequencies. These light pulses penetrate the tissue and create heat, targeting the skin imperfection in a controlled manner. The body responds to this heat by removing the blemishes while also promoting collagen and elastic fiber stimulation. 

Developed by the pioneer of aesthetic medicine and tn1sted by leading professionals around the world, the Lumenis® IPL Photorejuvenation treatment is FDA-cleared. Furthermore, as the inventor of the IPL technology, Lumenis® features dozens of clinical papers proving the efficacy and safety of its technology. 

Alpine’s unique IPL (Intense Pulsed Ught) technology gently and effectively eliminates spots, discolorations, and unwanted blood vessels. 

Is it safe? Yes. Does it work? Yes. Reach out to our team to learn more.

Skin Defects We Target

Alpine Medical is based in Pagosa Springs, CO, so we know how harsh the sun can be. Dry climates and high altitude lead to the perfect storm of flaky skin and high UV radiation. IPL treatments can help reverse skin blemishes.

 

  • Sun Spots (Solar Lentigines)

    Sun spots, also known as solar lentigines or age spots, are flat, brown or dark spots that appear on the skin due to prolonged sun exposure. They typically occur on sun-exposed areas like the face, hands, shoulders, and chest and are associated with skin aging.

  • Freckles

    Freckles are small, flat, and circular spots that are usually light to dark brown in color. They are often genetic and result from an increased production of melanin in response to sunlight. Freckles are most commonly found on people with fair skin.

     

  • Rosacea

    Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that primarily affects the facial skin. It is characterized by redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and sometimes the development of small, pus-filled bumps. Rosacea can also lead to eye irritation and is often triggered by factors like sunlight, heat, spicy foods, and alcohol.

     

  • Broken Capillaries (Telangiectasia)

    Broken capillaries are small, visible blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin, often resembling fine red or purple lines. They can occur due to various factors, including sun exposure, aging, and skin trauma, and are commonly found on the face and legs.

When Can I Expect Results from IPL Sessions?

The Lumenis® IPL Photorejuvenation treatment works on your skin to remove imperfections and stimulate collagen and elastic fiber production.

Sessions typically last 15-39 minutes and involve cold coupling gel and light application. Most people find it relaxing!

Some skin conditions, like sun spots, can be cleared with as few as 1-2 treatments. Typically 2-6 sessions with 2-4 weeks in between are needed to achieve optimal results for most concerns. 

Are There Side Effects or Post-Session Warnings?

Immediately following treatment, you may experience some redness, depending on your customized treatment settings. The redness will usually disappear within a few hours. In most cases, makeup may be immediately applied, and daily activities can be resumed the very same day. 

Tabitha Zappone and her team will advise you to stay out of direct sun for a few days following the treatment and to apply sunscreen regularly. 

Why Promote Healthy Collagen Production and Elastic Fiber?

Collagen and elastic fibers are essential components for maintaining healthy and youthful-looking skin. Collagen, the most abundant protein in the skin, provides structural support, helping to keep the skin firm and supple. As we age, collagen production naturally decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles and sagging skin. By incorporating collagen-rich skincare products or supplements, individuals can help replenish and maintain their skin’s elasticity and firmness.

On the other hand, elastic fibers are responsible for the skin’s ability to bounce back and retain its shape. They allow the skin to stretch and contract without losing its resilience. The presence of adequate elastic fibers ensures that the skin remains taut and resilient, which contributes to a more youthful appearance. By nurturing and protecting both collagen and elastic fibers through a healthy lifestyle, skincare routine, and appropriate dietary choices, individuals can promote skin health and achieve a radiant and youthful complexion.
