What Is an IPL Photofacial?
Our skin takes a lot of damage over time, and a lot of that damage goes unnoticed until it creates noticeable changes in our skin. At Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates, our team is here to help you restore a smooth, even skin tone with an IPL in Oklahoma City.
An IPL photofacial is a revolutionary treatment that targets and destroys unwanted pigment in your skin for an even skin tone and a brighter complexion.
- Uneven skin tone
- Dark spots
- Hyperpigmentation
- Sun damage
How It Works
An IPL photofacial uses intense light to target and break down the pigment within the skin. This destroys the pigment and stimulates your body’s natural healing process. This causes an increase in collagen and elastin productions, which are the two main proteins your body needs to create smoother, healthier skin.
What To Expect From an IPL Photofacial
01
Consultation
You’ll meet with one of our providers for an initial consultation. One of our expert providers takes the time to learn more about you, including your specific aesthetic concerns and health history. With this information, they’ll explain all your options for treatment, letting you know which options will deliver the best results.
02
Care Plan
You and your provider will then come up with a personalized care plan. This plan can include both surgical and nonsurgical options, but will only include the best treatment options for your goals. Once you have created a plan you feel confident in, then your provider will help you schedule your appointments.
03
Treatment
Your provider will begin your appointment by cleansing your face to remove dirt, sweat, and debris from your skin. Once you are ready, they will give you protective eyewear and then begin delivering treatment with the handheld IPL device. When they finish, they will give you your aftercare instructions and help you schedule your next appointment.
04
Results
After getting an IPL in Oklahoma City, you may notice some improvements, but will not start seeing initial results until about 5 to 7 days after treatment. It will take a few weeks for the full effects of your results to appear and your provider will make sure you have all the resources you need to maintain your results until your next session.

IPL Photofacial FAQs
A single session can’t last more than 30 minutes as extended exposure to IPL may be risky to the patient. An aggressive approach may bring negative effects instead of correcting skin irregularities.
Improvements are noticeable even after the initial treatment of IPL in Oklahoma City, but optimal results may be evident after several months. The positive results of this laser treatment are gradual, since you need to give time to heal to avoid any complications of an aggressive approach. There is no standard recovery time as a patient’s condition can greatly vary.
