Top 5 Skin Concerns IPL Photofacials Can Treat
- Posted on: Aug 15 2025
If you’re looking for a non-invasive way to refresh your complexion and tackle stubborn skin issues, an IPL photofacial could be your new best friend. IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments use broad-spectrum light energy to target layers of skin, addressing a variety of concerns with little downtime. Here are the top five skin concerns IPL photofacials can help treat.
At Always Beautiful Medspa, every IPL photofacial is customized just for you, ensuring you get smoother, clearer skin with results that align with your unique goals. Founder Ali McCoy-Stengel and her skilled team believe in thorough education, personal attention, and precise cosmetic treatments that help you feel confident when you look in the mirror every day.
1. Sun Damage & Age Spots
Years of sun exposure can leave unwanted brown spots and uneven pigmentation. IPL targets melanin in sun-damaged areas, breaking up pigmented cells and revealing clearer, more even skin tone over time. It’s one of the most effective options for fading sun spots on the face, chest, and hands.
2. Rosacea & Redness
If you struggle with redness, flushing, or visible blood vessels, IPL can help calm your complexion. The light energy is absorbed by dilated blood vessels, causing them to constrict and gradually fade. Patients with rosacea often see significant improvement in redness and overall skin tone after a series of treatments.
3. Broken Capillaries & Spider Veins
Those tiny red or purple veins around your nose or cheeks can be frustrating to conceal. IPL effectively minimizes broken capillaries and spider veins by gently heating and collapsing the targeted vessels, which are then reabsorbed by the body.
4. Acne & Acne Scarring
IPL photofacials can help reduce active acne by destroying acne-causing bacteria and calming inflammation. Additionally, IPL can help minimize the appearance of lingering red or brown marks left behind by past breakouts, promoting a clearer and smoother complexion.
5. Uneven Skin Texture & Large Pores
IPL isn’t just about pigment; it can also improve overall skin texture and reduce the look of large pores. By stimulating collagen deep within the skin, IPL treatments promote firmer, healthier-looking skin with a more refined surface.
