IPL Photo facials in Tacoma, WA
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) photofacial is a skin treatment that uses light to target and reduce skin irregularities such as pigmentation, sun damage, age spots, and rosacea. It works by emitting a range of lightwaves that are absorbed by the skin’s pigments and blood vessels, initiating a healing process that leaves the skin rejuvenated. The treatment improves skin texture, tone, and overall complexion with minimal downtime.
