About IPL Photofacial
Dr. Sajjadian begins every procedure by meeting with patients personally, listening to their concerns and creating an individualized treatment plan that addresses their unique needs. He also walks the patients through the procedure and answers any questions to ensure they feel comfortable and confident undergoing an IPL photofacial treatment.
During the procedure, Dr. Sajjadian gives patients protective goggles and applies a small amount of gel to the face to ensure even distribution. Then, he administers Intense Pulsated Light (IPL) technology to the surface of the skin. Depending on the patient’s condition, Dr. Sajjadian can use filters to specifically target and improve certain skin concerns, such as hyperpigmentation. The entire procedure typically lasts 15 to 30 minutes, with the patient experiencing minimal discomfort.
Dr. Sajjadian recommends IPL photofacial patients follow up the procedure by applying unscented moisturizer to the face two to three times a day. He also suggests patients apply sunscreen and avoid sun exposure whenever possible.
Patients typically require three to five treatments at approximately four week intervals in order to achieve optimal results.

IPL Photofacial FAQs
Intense pulsed light therapy is a non-ablative treatment that uses an intense but gentle beam of light. The treatment targets aging skin conditions without damaging any adjacent tissues.
IPL operates on the same principles as lasers, in that light energy is absorbed into particular target cells in the skin. This means that it targets the lower layers of skin without affecting the top layers.
Though the IPL photofacial’s primary use is facial rejuvenation, the device also renews the upper chest, neck, hands, arms, shoulders, and legs.
