Photofacial is an advanced skin rejuvenation technique that uses pulse light technology to reduce redness, and uneven skin tone. This procedure is in high demand at this time for making aging symptoms less prominent and reducing blemishes on the skin, using this noninvasive method, which brings rapid effects.
The sun has an effect as well as aging on the skin over the years, including producing brown spots and ruptured blood vessels on the cheeks, nose, chin, hands and neck. The sun causes UV-protecting pigment to form on skin, which appears as unappealing brown splotches that are sometimes referred to as age spots. The skin produces new blood vessels in spots where harm from the sun has accumulated. Inflammation is another term for these new blood vessels that form.
Blood is brought in to the area from these new vessels in order to bring healing compounds in, and to remove damaged cells. As our skin ages, the brown spots and broken blood vessels are left behind on the skin after the inflammation or skin injury has passed. Aging has many outward forms, and dyschromia is what red spots and pigmented brown spots are called technically.
What causes the procedure to work?
A filter is used to separate the bright intense pulsed light from the intended color of flash light that is directed toward the skin. The photofacial light energy reaches the skin and is selectively absorbed by the damaged blood vessel or brown pigment of the age spot. The damaged blood vessels and pigment are destroyed by the heat of the IPL light delivered by the machine.
Noninvasive processes such as these do not need much, if any, time to heal afterwards since they are not very intensive. Treatment can be performed in as little as 15 to 30 minutes and you can return to your regular daily activities. There are some signs of redness and capillary exposure right after the treatment at times. This will fade and you will often enjoy the effects of your Photofacial following your first treatment. While lasers lead to peeling of skin and possible scars, photofacial skin rejuvenation is gentle on the skin. There is some darkening that can occur in the treated areas, but skin is never broken during the procedure. At the most, the region may remain pink for a few hours. Makeup can be utilized in order to cover up any redness that may still be lingering, and the patient needs to go out somewhere, or be at work.
A patient will normally have a session every two or three weeks, with as few as three treatments needed, up to about a maximum of seven. Redness on the face caused by a condition called Rosacea will be reduced noticeably, making the face appear clearer and brighter.
The treatment provider will provide you with a list of instructions afterwards, follow these to the letter. Try to stay out of direct sunlight before a photofacial, and also afterwards. Exposure and tanning before treatment may occasionally lead to adverse effects such as blistering and dyspigmentation of the skin. When a patient gets too much sun too close to a treatment, discoloration of the skin may also happen. Always wear sunscreen to maximize and sustain your results.
