Who is a candidate for IPL in San Mateo / San Jose?

The Intense Pulsed Light Aesthera Isolaz laser is unique in that is emits more than one wavelength (color) of light, unlike traditional lasers that deliver only one color. In addition, the IPL wavelength can be customized to treat deeper layers of skin or minimized to just treat the surface. The speed of IPL can also be tailored, thus providing each patient with an individualized treatment that can address his or her unique aesthetic goals. Top Bay Area IPL treatment specialist, Dr. Beck, holds advanced training in IPL therapy and has helped many patients permanently treat complex skin conditions, restore facial youthfulness, eliminate unwanted hair and be acne-free without having to undergo facial surgery.

How is IPL procedure performed?

Prior to the procedure, Dr. Beck will customize the settings that will produce the best possible aesthetic results while minimizing side effects. During the procedure, the IPL energy is absorbed into the target area, which is then converted into heat energy. This heat energy works to treat the specific target area, thus eliminating unwanted hair, acne and/or facial wrinkles. IPL therapy is a type of skin resurfacing that affects the deeper layers of skin, leaving the top layers intact. This is one of the reasons why IPL is ideal for patients looking to undergo a cosmetic enhancement procedure with minimal down time. Another unique feature that can be advantageous during Isolaz treatments is that this photo pneumatic laser can clear skin pores of excess oil and debris, thus creating a clear, vibrant glow almost instantly.

Recuperation

Recuperation time following IPL therapy is minimal. Our IPL San Francisco / San Mateo patients undergo treatment within few minutes and may return to work and/or other activities immediately.

Other Options

Although IPL therapy is an advanced procedure, the IPL Aesthera Isolaz laser may not be appropriate for everyone. This is why Dr. Beck, a renowned San Francisco cosmetic surgery specialist, offers a wide range of additional skin care treatments, including DermaSweep, chemical peels, Botox injections and surgical procedures, such as the short scar facelift in San Jose.
