Book AppointmentWhat Is IPL?
If you are concerned about how your skin looks because of dark spots or sun damage, our skin specialists can perform a skin exam at our Owensboro, KY office to determine if you may benefit from IPL (intense pulsed light) therapy. An IPL photofacial is a noninvasive, rejuvenating skin treatment offered at The Skin Lab for individuals with hyperpigmentation concerns on their neck and face. IPL uses intense pulses of light energy that warm the skin cells just enough to set off the natural regeneration process and increase collagen production. In time, you should see a healthier layer with an improved tone and fewer dark spots.
How Does IPL Work?
IPL is performed inside our Owensboro, KY office in about 20 – 30 minutes in one of our private procedure rooms. The IPL photofacial is performed using a handheld device that passes over the skin while emitting light energy pulses. While many patients may have mild discomfort throughout the IPL, it is generally tolerable for the quick treatment time. There is no downtime so you are welcome to leave afterward and go about your usual day. Over the next several days, your skin will start to flake off. As it heals, you should notice a decrease in the appearance of age spots, rosacea, dark spots, freckles, and sun damage.

There is not anyone out there doing Botox better than Taren. Not only is she super smart and careful with what she is doing, she’s also kind, loving, and compassionate.
Jennifer was AMAZING!! Very calming and friendly. It was my first time doing Botox. She walked me through the steps and I was so thankful for her making me feel so comfortable. I was referred to her and she definitely lived up to my expectations. I will be back for more services.

About UsIPL FAQs
How quick are the results from IPL?
Improvements can be seen following each IPL treatment, but final results can be seen a month after all of your treatments are done. It is normal for patients to see different responses following each treatment. You will see a gradual improvement of blotchiness, redness, and spots (age, brown, and sun).
What are the possible side effects of IPL?
It's common to have mild side effects like temporary redness, swelling, crusting, bruising, or superficial blisters. This should subside in a few days. Your skin will be extra sensitive to the sun, and you should keep in mind that excessive sun exposure will negatively affect your results. You should also wear sunscreen to protect your skin and prevent issues like redness and spots.
Do I need to prep for IPL?
To prepare for an IPL treatment, patients are asked to avoid sun exposure and self-tanners for at least 2 – 4 weeks before their procedure. You should discontinue the use of certain medications and topical creams, like Retin-A several days before your treatment, and we may recommend taking pain relievers for a week before your treatment to help prevent bruising.
