If you're experiencing dry eyes, contact intolerance, broken blood vessels, age spots, or concerned with fine lines and wrinkles, then IPL treatments might benefit you.
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light and is a type of light treatment that uses strong pulses of light to stimulate or treat various issues within the skin.
This technology is used by cosmetic and medical practitioners to perform various skin treatments for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes.

Who Is a Good Candidate for IPL?
Your eye doctor may recommend IPL therapy if you are experiencing chronic dry eye symptoms that are affecting your productivity and quality of life.
How Does It Work?
IPL targets two key components that contribute to dry eye syndrome:
1. Inflammation: IPL effectively reduces inflammation in the meibomian glands, which are responsible for producing the oily layer of tears. When these glands become inflamed, they can't produce enough oil to keep tears from evaporating too quickly.
2. Blood Vessels: IPL also targets abnormal blood vessels on the surface of the eye. These vessels can contribute to dryness and discomfort by promoting inflammation and interfering with the normal tear film.
Does IPL Hurt?
You've likely heard varying responses to this question, as the answer really depends on your pain threshold. The sensation is generally compared to that of an elastic-band flick - but the best IPL devices out there work so quickly, you'll barely have time to register it.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Most patients notice and feel a difference right away. Typically a series of 4-6 treatments
is ideal depending on severity. The series is usually followed by a 6-12 month follow up
appointment and then a yearly birthday maintenance treatment.
How Much Does It Cost?

When Will I See Results?
Some may see results in as little as three weeks - but again, the exact time will differ from person to person, depending on various factors. Most people need a series of 3-6 treatments for optimal results.
