Glowing skin doesn't have to be out of reach. Call now to book an appointment in Indianapolis, IN, and start the journey to beautiful skin with an IPL photofacial.

Do you have problems with discoloration?

Many people experience hyperpigmentation (dark spots) as they age. Unfortunately, these issues are inevitable and can cause your skin to look dull or patchy. Though brightening creams promise to correct these problems, they don't always provide the results you want. Those looking for a long-lasting solution may want to consider skin rejuvenation with an IPL photofacial.

What is an IPL photofacial?

Intense pulsed light treatments use multiple wavelengths of light energy to penetrate the skin and boost natural collagen production. This gentle treatment is noninvasive and targets areas of the face and neck that seem hard to manage through topical products alone. Our skilled technicians can target pigmented areas with precision and help you achieve a more even skin tone.

How is IPL performed?

Dr. Ball can perform IPL in just 30 minutes and may recommend a series of sessions for optimal results. We begin by cleansing the treatment areas and placing protective goggles over your eyes. A special device is then used to deliver the light pulses directly to the skin. Most patients experience little discomfort during this process, though some feel a warm or tingling sensation.

Here's why you should consider IPL photofacials with Dr. Ball:

  • Quick and convenient treatment times
  • Generally comfortable procedure with minimal side effects
  • Improve hyperpigmentation and dark spots
  • Safe and effective for many skin tones and types

What to expect after skin rejuvenation treatment

You may notice redness and swelling in the treated areas following an IPL photofacial, but this typically fades within a short period. Your skin may be more sensitive to sunlight, so Ball Dentistry recommends wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen after your appointment. Most patients in Indianapolis, IN begin to see results within weeks, with continued improvements showing over the course of several months.

How to keep your radiant skin long-term

Patients are welcome to return for additional IPL sessions as needed. We also suggest following a professional-grade skin care regimen to maintain the benefits of your photofacial long-term. Here are some helpful ways to preserve your outcomes:

  • Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers that won't strip your skin of natural oils
  • Exfoliate regularly to remove dead or damaged skin cells and boost circulation
  • Avoid tanning beds and other UV light sources that could harm your skin
  • Protect your skin from damage through the use of sunscreen
