IPL Skin Rejuvenation Aftercare Instructions
To achieve the best results from your IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatment, follow these aftercare guidelines carefully. Remember, full results develop over 6 weeks, and a series of 3-4 treatments is recommended for optimal outcomes.
Immediately After Treatment:
Cool the Skin – Use a cold compress to reduce redness or swelling. Avoid applying ice directly to the skin.
Moisturize – Keep the treated area hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.
Avoid Touching – Refrain from rubbing or picking at the treated area.
First 24-48 Hours:
Skip makeup and heavy skincare products to let the skin heal.
Use only a gentle cleanser and lukewarm water to clean your face.
Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid UV exposure entirely.
Sun Protection (Crucial):
Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, even when indoors or on cloudy days.
Wear a wide-brimmed hat and avoid prolonged sun exposure.
Healing Process:
Darkening of Spots: Pigmented areas may darken before flaking off over the next 7-10 days. This is normal—avoid scrubbing or picking.
Mild Redness or Swelling: This typically resolves within a few days.
Avoid These for 7 Days:
Hot showers, saunas, or steam rooms.
Harsh scrubs, exfoliants, or chemical peels.
Swimming in chlorinated pools or hot tubs.
Vigorous exercise or anything causing excessive sweating.
Long-Term Care:
Stick to a consistent skincare routine focused on hydration, sun protection, and gentle exfoliation.
Maintain your IPL results with additional treatments as recommended.
Treatment Schedule:
For best results, a series of 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended. This allows your skin to heal and regenerate between sessions, leading to radiant, even-toned skin over time.
