Whether you're targeting sun-induced pigmentation or looking to enhance overall skin vibrancy, IPL at Integra delivers physician-supervised results in a private, personalized setting.
What Is IPL Skin Rejuvenation?
IPL Skin Rejuvenation, also known as a photofacial, is a non-invasive aesthetic procedure that uses intense pulsed light to reduce common signs of sun damage, redness, and aging. Unlike laser resurfacing, which uses a single wavelength to target the skin’s surface, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths that penetrate the dermis without ablating the top layer of skin.
This treatment is clinically proven to address pigmentation and vascular irregularities by delivering controlled pulses of light that break down unwanted melanin or blood vessels beneath the surface. The process also stimulates new collagen formation, improving skin texture and tone over time.
At Integra, all IPL sessions are performed using the Cutera Xeo+, a customizable, physician-grade platform known for its safety, precision, and compatibility with a range of skin tones.
Skin Concerns IPL Can Treat
IPL therapy at Integra is ideal for patients looking to correct:
- Sun damage and photoaging
- Age spots and liver spots
- Redness and broken capillaries
- Rosacea-related flushing
- Melasma and hormonal pigmentation
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone
- Acne-related discoloration
- Fine lines associated with collagen loss
Because IPL targets pigment and blood vessels using broad-spectrum light, it's highly effective for reducing visible signs of aging without disrupting the surface of the skin.
How Does IPL Work?
The Science Behind Light-Based Skin Renewal
IPL works by delivering rapid pulses of broad-spectrum light to specific chromophores in the skin, primarily melanin (pigment) and hemoglobin (blood vessels). This light energy heats and breaks down the targeted pigment or vessel, which the body then eliminates through natural processes.
The gentle thermal effect also activates fibroblast cells in the dermis, which support collagen regeneration. Over time, this leads to smoother texture, improved elasticity, and more even skin tone.
Unlike ablative lasers, IPL treatments leave the outer skin layer intact, making them safer for lighter to medium-dark skin tones and suitable for patients seeking visible improvements without extended recovery.

Cutera Xeo+ is one of the most advanced IPL platforms available, combining customizable wavelengths, precision pulse durations, and enhanced cooling for comfort and safety.

Benefits of IPL at Integra Wellness & Aesthetics
Improves Skin Tone Without Harsh Resurfacing
IPL reaches deeper skin layers without damaging the surface, restoring clarity and vibrancy with no peeling or scabbing.
Reduces Visible Redness and Pigmentation
By targeting excess melanin and blood vessels, IPL softens discoloration from sun exposure, rosacea, and hormonal shifts.
Stimulates Collagen for Long-Term Skin Health
The treatment activates your skin’s natural collagen production, improving elasticity and softening fine lines over time.
Minimal Downtime with Long-Lasting Results
Most patients return to normal activities the same day. Results continue improving for weeks, with maintenance options available.
Safe for a Range of Skin Types
With physician guidance and the Cutera Xeo+ platform, IPL can be safely tailored for lighter to medium-dark skin tones.
Delivered With Medical Oversight and Privacy
As a concierge medical practice, all treatments are part of a holistic care plan, not rushed procedures in a crowded spa.
What to Expect During Your IPL Treatment Journey
Before Your Appointment
You’ll meet with our physician to assess your skin tone, history of sun exposure, and current concerns. We’ll perform a test pulse and customize your treatment settings for safety and effectiveness.
During the Procedure
Most sessions take 20–40 minutes, depending on the area. You may feel a warm “snap” sensation as the light pulses activate beneath the skin. No anesthesia or numbing is required.
After Treatment
Mild redness or darkening of pigmented areas is normal and usually fades within a few days. Treated spots may flake or slough gently as your skin renews itself.
Your Results Timeline
- Week 1: Skin may look flushed or darker
- Week 2: Spots fade, redness softens
- Week 3–4: Tone and texture noticeably improve
- By Session 3–4: Full results emerge with consistent collagen activation
For optimal outcomes, we typically recommend a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.
Who Is a Candidate for IPL Skin Rejuvenation?
IPL is a great choice for adults experiencing visible skin concerns related to:
- Sun exposure
- Redness or vascular changes
- Hormonal pigmentation (like melasma)
- Uneven tone or texture
It works best on light to medium-dark skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–IV) and can be adapted for sensitive skin. Patients with recent sunburns, active acne breakouts, or darker melanin levels may need alternate care plans, which we’re happy to provide.
Pregnant individuals or those taking light-sensitive medications should wait until cleared by a physician.

IPL Skin Rejuvenation FAQs
Most patients benefit from 3 to 6 sessions, spaced about 4 weeks apart. Some see visible changes after the first visit, but optimal tone and texture improvements build gradually with each session.
