Overview
The smooth, clear complexion you were born with can become blemished over time with spots, freckles, wrinkles, and scarring caused by the sun and other environmental damage. Instead of taking the time to conceal or color correct spots and other flaws on your skin, get rid of them with an intense pulsed light (IPL) photo facial at ZO Skin Centre® in Orange County. An IPL photo facial uses light energy to fade unwanted pigmentation in the skin along with other skin concerns like wrinkles, large pores, and a rough skin texture. An IPL photo facial is a noninvasive procedure with minimal recovery time and few possible side effects, but great results which make it a popular treatment for our patients in Laguna Beach and Newport Beach who want to enjoy the Southern California sun without the sun spots it can leave behind.

What to Expect
Before your photo facial, the technician will cleanse your face to remove any makeup, dirt, or oil that may interfere with the treatment. With your eyes protected from the laser, the technician will pass the handpiece along the skin as light wave is emitted. You may feel some discomfort during the treatment, similar to a rubber band being snapped against the skin during each light pulse, but a numbing cream can be applied before the treatment. After a photo facial, your skin will be extra sensitive to UV damage, so it's important to avoid sun exposure and protect your skin with sunscreen. Talk to your ZO® skin care professional about what products will best nourish your skin after your IPL photo facial and when to schedule your next treatment. Your skin may feel red or flushed for 1 -2 days after your treatment while skin blemishes begin to fade over the next 2 weeks. You may need several treatment sessions to reach your cosmetic goals.
