What to know
-
Most patients describe IPL photofacials as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. The sensation is often compared to a quick snap of a rubber band on the skin, and cooling technology helps keep treatments comfortable.
-
The cost of IPL varies depending on the treatment area and number of sessions needed. On average, individual sessions range from $200–$500. Many clinics also offer package pricing for multiple treatments.
-
While some improvement can be seen after just one session, most patients require 3–5 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart for optimal results in reducing sun spots, pigmentation, and redness.
-
Reviews consistently highlight clearer, more radiant skin and visible reduction in sun damage. Patients often praise IPL for its effectiveness and minimal downtime compared to more aggressive procedures.
-
Results can last for many months, especially when paired with good skincare and sun protection. Maintenance sessions are often recommended once or twice a year to keep skin looking its best.
