Restore clarity and even tone with an IPL photofacial at Blush Med Spa. Using the advanced HORIZON laser, we treat sun damage, redness, and pigmentation—because aging gracefully shouldn’t look like work.
Enhance Your Skin Tone and Texture
With Light Therapy
IPL photofacial is a non-invasive treatment that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to target pigmentation, redness, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. At Blush Med Spa, we use the cutting-edge HORIZON laser to deliver precise light energy deep into the skin, where it breaks up discoloration and stimulates collagen. Unlike traditional lasers, IPL can address multiple skin concerns in a single session with minimal discomfort. The result? A brighter, more even complexion that looks refreshed. It’s the secret to looking like you haven’t aged.

- Sunspots and age spots
- Redness and rosacea
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne and acne scars

How Does IPL
Photofacial Work?
Overview
An IPL photofacial utilizes intense pulsed light (IPL) to target skin imperfections, including sunspots, redness, and fine lines. The HORIZON laser delivers a broad spectrum of light that penetrates different layers of the skin, where it is absorbed by specific pigments and structures. Here’s how IPL works on various skin concerns:
Sunspots and Pigmentation
IPL effectively targets sunspots and pigmentation by emitting a broad spectrum of light that is absorbed by the excess melanin in the skin. This light energy breaks down the pigment into smaller particles, which the body then naturally eliminates. Over time, the skin appears more even-toned, with dark spots fading and leaving behind a smoother, brighter complexion.
Redness and Rosacea
For redness and rosacea, IPL works by emitting light that is absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood vessels beneath the skin. The light heats and constricts these vessels, reducing their size and visibility, which in turn reduces the overall redness. This process helps calm inflammation and balance the skin’s tone, leading to a more even complexion.
Fine Lines and Wrinkles
IPL stimulates collagen production by penetrating the deeper layers of the skin with light energy. This promotes the skin’s natural healing process. Collagen is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness, helping to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. As collagen rebuilds the skin’s structure, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance.

Your IPL Photofacial Experience at Blush
Consultation
You’ll meet with one of our experienced providers to discuss your skin concerns and goals. They’ll evaluate your skin type and any areas you’d like to treat. You’ll also review your medical history to ensure the treatment is right for you. Your provider will explain the IPL process, address any questions you may have, and create a personalized treatment plan.
Treatment
Your skin will be cleansed, and a cool gel will be applied to enhance your comfort. You’ll wear protective eyewear as your provider uses the HORIZON laser to deliver precise pulses of light across the treatment area. You may feel a mild snapping sensation with each pulse, but most clients find it very tolerable. The entire process typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.
Recovery
Your skin may feel warm, like a mild sunburn, and appear slightly red or flushed for a few hours. Some dark spots may temporarily darken before flaking off. You can resume most activities right away, but it’s important to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen diligently. Your provider will give you aftercare instructions to help your skin heal properly and comfortably.
Results
You’ll begin to notice improvements in your skin within a few days after your IPL photofacial, with optimal results visible after 2 to 3 weeks. Most clients require 3 to 5 sessions, spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart, for optimal outcomes. The results last several months, depending on your skin’s condition and how well you protect it from sun damage.
