Our skin changes as we age. It can change both in texture and pigment. There are lots of masks, creams and other products in the market that claims to reduce fine lines or wrinkles and improve the appearance of aging skin, but rarely do they deliver on that promise.

According to a 10-year study that was conducted by a group of researchers from Stanford University, IPL Photofacial isnt just effective in dealing with age spots, it also prevents future signs of aging. This is because Photofacial stimulates the production of collagen. It improves our skins elasticity and keeps it hydrated; thus, resulting in smoother, healthier, and younger-looking skin.

This is why we advise patients to schedule treatments a month apart. Also, it can also cause serious damage to the skin if the light isnt administered properly.
