What Is IPL Photorejuvenation?
Dark spots and sun damage can distract from an otherwise flawless complexion. If you struggle with discoloration or other cosmetic imperfections, we invite you to schedule a skin assessment at Aesthetic Med Studio in Springfield, MO to learn if you might benefit from intense pulsed light (IPL) photorejuvenation. In addition to hyperpigmentation, IPL therapy can be effective in minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as spider veins on the face. Our IPL photorejuvenation treatments use intense pulses of light energy that heat the skin cells to set off the natural healing process and increase collagen production. Over time, you should begin to see a healthier complexion with an improved tone and fewer dark spots. The effect can be as dramatic as plastic surgery without the associated scarring.
How Does IPL Therapy Work?
IPL photorejuvenation treatments generally take 20 – 30 minutes, though your experience may vary. To start, a member of our team will wash and dry your skin before covering your eyes with protective goggles. The IPL procedure is done using a handheld wand that will pass over the skin while emitting light energy pulses. While most patients may feel mild discomfort throughout the IPL photofacial, it is generally tolerable given the short treatment length.
What Are the Benefits of IPL Therapy?
IPL photorejuvenation is among the most popular treatments at Aesthetic Med Studio, thanks to its rejuvenating effects. Some of the benefits you can expect to see from your IPL treatment include:
- Revitalized, rejuvenated skin appearance
- Enhanced skin tone and feel
- Calming, pleasant treatment that contributes to total skin radiance
- Balancing of pigment and sun spots
IPL Photorejuvenation Reviews
Erina is the sweetest!! Very friendly and thorough, and she made me feel so comfortable throughout my laser treatment. She explained everything clearly and answered all my questions. I had a great experience and am excited to go back!
Love love love. Got the CO2 laser and the experience was way better than expected. First, Erina is extremely sweet and very knowledgeable. I was nervous about this laser even though I’ve had non-ablative laser in the past. But she tailored it to my needs and was very thorough about the after-care. It’s honestly way better than the laser treatment I had years ago. She did such a great job! Highly recommend Erina and Aesthetic Med Studio!
Had BBL with Irena. Always professional and quick. I was in and out of there in 10 minutes. I wouldn’t trust my face to any other place in Springfield!!!
Emily is amazing at her job and I cannot recommend her enough. I recently had a BBL laser treatment done with her and she did a phenomenal job from start to finish. She is exceptionally skilled, knowledgeable, and meticulous with her technique.Beyond her professional expertise, she is incredibly warm and easy to talk to. Emily is truly your go-to girl and you should absolutely request her for everything. I am so sad that I am moving away soon because she is an absolute gem and truly irreplaceable.
First treatment ever. I am very impressed! Had the Botox and erbium laser. My skin is baby fresh and no forehead wrinkles! Amazing!

Am I A Candidate for IPL Photorejuvenation?
An IPL photofacial treatment reaches deep within the layers of your skin to improve common complexion concerns like sun damage, dark spots, and hyperpigmentation, often with little to no downtime. Ideal candidates for an IPL photofacial at Aesthetic Med Studio are individuals dealing with multiple skin concerns at once, including rosacea treatment, brown spots, uneven skin tone, rough texture, enlarged pores, redness, melasma, sun and age spots, or visible spider veins. Karlene Ruiz will carefully assess your skin during a private consultation to determine if this skin rejuvenation treatment is the right approach for achieving clearer, more radiant-looking skin.
Can you get IPL photofacial treatment while pregnant?
IPL photofacial treatment is generally not recommended during pregnancy as a precaution. While there is limited research on its safety during pregnancy, most practices advise postponing elective cosmetic treatments. Our team can suggest pregnancy-safe skincare options and help you plan your IPL treatment after delivery.
Should I wait until after the summer for IPL photofacial treatment?
Waiting until after the summer can sometimes be beneficial for IPL photofacial treatment, especially if you spend a lot of time in the sun. IPL targets pigment, so recently tanned or sun-exposed skin may increase the risk of irritation or uneven results. Our team will evaluate your skin and sun habits to help determine the safest and most effective timing
How long before my wedding should I schedule an IPL photofacial?
Scheduling an IPL photofacial at least a few weeks before your wedding is typically recommended to allow your skin time to heal and your results to fully develop. Some patients benefit from a series of treatments, so planning ahead is key. Our team will help you build a timeline that ensures your skin looks clear, even, and radiant for your big day.
Does IPL photorejuvenation hurt?
While some patients may experience mild discomfort during the procedure, most find it tolerable given the short treatment length. Our team will work with you to ensure your comfort and offer options for numbing cream if needed. We also provide detailed post-procedure guidelines so you can recover comfortably at home.
How can I prepare for IPL photorejuvenation?
Before your IPL photofacial at Aesthetic Med Studio, we recommend avoiding sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks. You should also avoid using any skincare products that may irritate the skin or make it more sensitive, such as retinol. It is important to disclose any medications you are taking and any medical conditions you have during your consultation.
Is IPL photorejuvenation safe?
Yes, IPL photorejuvenation is a safe and effective treatment for various skin concerns. Our staff in Springfield, MO, is highly trained and experienced in performing IPL, ensuring your safety and satisfaction.
