Complexion Refresh
What is IPL Laser?
IPL (or intense pulsed light) therapy uses light energy to target the outer layers of the skin by promoting increased collagen and cellular renewal, killing active bacteria in acne patients, or diminishing redness and small vessels. Over time, IPL laser fades age spots, sun damage, and other types of discoloration or redness and smooths skin for a refreshed, vibrant appearance. IPL laser delivers faster and more significant results than topical skincare alone, making it an easy choice for brightening your skin. Treatments are short and completely comfortable, allowing you to schedule your appointment during your lunch break or anytime within your schedule.
Easy Treatment. Brilliant Results.

A Bright Outlook
Your IPL Laser Consultation
During the consultation for IPL laser Woodland Hills patients will meet with their provider who will assess their complexion and ask questions about their treatment goals and medical history to determine if it is right for them. IPL laser is a mild treatment that is safe and effective for most skin tones.
Rejuvenation In A Flash
Your IPL Laser Procedure
Your IPL laser treatment will be performed in our office by one of our skin specialists. IPL laser requires minimal preparation. We ask that you arrive for your appointment makeup and product-free for a streamlined treatment experience. You will need to avoid sun exposure and tanning for two weeks before your treatment and may need to stop taking certain medications that increase sensitivity to light.
Your specialist will disinfect your skin before using a handheld tool to administer your IPL treatment. The tool will flash as it delivers bursts of light energy to targeted areas. You may notice a warming sensation or mild discomfort, though IPL is quite tolerable for most patients. Your treatment will take 30-60 minutes, and you will be free to return to your day as soon as it is complete.
Better & Better
IPL Laser Results
After the treatment of IPL laser Woodland Hills patients will begin to notice a difference in the appearance of their skin within just a few days. However, your results will continue to improve. You will see a significant difference in your skin tone within one to two weeks, and the overall quality of your complexion will continue to progress for up to three months as cellular turnover takes place.
Most patients undergo a series of IPL treatments to achieve optimal results. During your consultation, your specialist can recommend the right number of sessions you’ll need to reach your skin goals with IPL laser. You can maintain your results with an at-home skincare regimen, limiting sun exposure, follow-up treatment, or other in-office treatments.
Reveal Your Best Skin
IPL Laser Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery after IPL laser is markedly minimal, although you may experience sunburn-like symptoms. This will subside within a few hours, and you can alleviate these symptoms with an ice pack if needed. You will need to avoid certain skincare products, like exfoliants and scented moisturizers. If you have freckles, sun spots, or other dark spots, you may notice them get darker over the first week or two before flaking off to reveal bright, fresh skin.
