What Is IPL Treatment?
IPL is a noninvasive treatment that uses multiple wavelengths of light to address common skin concerns related to pigmentation, redness, and sun exposure. The light energy gently heats targeted areas of the skin, breaking down excess melanin and calming visible vessels beneath the surface. As your skin begins its natural healing process, discoloration fades and tone gradually becomes more even. IPL can be safely used on the face, chest, neck, and hands, making it a versatile option for clients seeking clearer, more balanced skin.
Benefits of Intense Pulsed Light Treatment
IPL brightens your complexion and helps restore confidence with natural, progressive improvements. Benefits include:
More Even Skin Tone
IPL targets excess pigment and sun damage, reducing discoloration and helping your complexion look clearer and more uniform over time.
Reduced Redness
By addressing visible vessels and redness beneath the skin, IPL creates a calmer, more balanced appearance.
Gentle Rejuvenation
Treatments are noninvasive, making IPL a comfortable way to refresh your skin without downtime.
Progressive Improvement

Our Process for Intense Pulsed Light Facials
We designed our approach to create predictable, comfortable results every step of the way. Here’s that that looks like in practice:
Consultation
Your provider evaluates your skin, reviews your goals, and determines if IPL is the best fit. We’ll discuss the areas you’d like to treat and create a personalized plan, including how many sessions are recommended.
Treatment
Using the Alma Harmony XL Pro device, your provider delivers controlled pulses of light to the skin. You may feel a quick sensation of warmth with each pulse. The device is designed to protect the skin’s surface while targeting deeper pigment and redness.
Aftercare & Recovery
Most clients return to normal activities immediately. Mild warmth or redness is common and usually fades within a few hours. Pigmented spots may darken slightly before flaking or fading over several days. Protect treated skin with sunscreen and avoid heat, exfoliation, and direct sun exposure for at least 24 hours.
Results
Visible improvements typically begin after the first session, with optimal clarity achieved over a series of treatments. As discoloration fades and tone evens, your skin appears brighter, more refreshed, and naturally radiant.
