ICON™ IPL Photofacial in Bellevue, WA.
For advanced non-invasive skin renewal, Serenity Rejuvenation Center is a top provider of the ICON™ photofacial, the best IPL/ BBL in Bellevue, WA. Following a treatment session, collagen production is boosted, and skin concerns including rosacea, facial redness, enlarged pores, acne scars, certain types of hyperpigmentation spots, sun damage, cherry hemangioma and broken blood vessels are gradually diminished or eliminated. With the advanced intense pulsed light technology of the ICON IPL platform, you can say goodbye to skin imperfections and hello to firmer skin that glows.
How Does an IPL Facial Work?
During an IPL facial, a non-invasive handheld device applicator delivers intense pulsed light (IPL) energy that targets imperfections, leading them to break down and fade away. The ICON IPL platform features smart technology, seven applicators, and adjustable wavelengths of light energy for precise delivery to target specific concerns with superior results.

Who are the Candidates for a Photofacial?
Candidates for an IPL photofacial include individuals with a wide range of skin types who are concerned with the appearance of a listless skin tone, texture anomalies, or signs of aging. The device applicators do not break the skin surface during the procedure, making it a more inclusive option for candidates seeking non-surgical skin renewal to consider. A comprehensive consultation will ensure treatment compatibility.
What to Expect During an IPL Photofacial
During your IPL photofacial treatment, you can anticipate a comfortable and efficient procedure. Protective eyewear will be provided to shield your eyes as the ICON handpiece delivers precise pulses of light. You may experience a mild, tolerable sensation often described as a rubber band snap. The duration of treatment depends on your specific goals, but sessions are typically 30 minutes to an hour, making it convenient for your schedule.
Recovery and Results with IPL
The benefits of IPL skin rejuvenation include the convenience of recovery without downtime, you may notice mild redness or darker tone that typically subsides in a few days. You can immediately return to daily activities and use certain formulations of cosmetics and skincare products as instructed. Over the coming weeks, damaged blood vessels, and hyperpigmentation fade away, wrinkles and scars are less visible and a skin tone that is backlit and radiant emerges. Depending on your individual goals and unique skin concerns, more than one session may be recommended.
Treatment Consultation
A personalized consultation and skin assessment is the first step to ensure that IPL skin rejuvenating facial treatments are right for you. During this initial meeting, we will evaluate your concerns, skin type, and health and medication history to ensure safe and effective treatment. An individualized plan tailored to your aesthetic goals will be created and reviewed, ensuring that you feel confident and informed about your upcoming IPL facial.
What Is the Cost of IPL Photo Facials?
