If you are concerned about how your facial skin appears because of dark spots or brown spots resulting from sun damage, Prestige Med Spa and Wellness Center can perform a skin consultation at our Charlotte, NC office to determine if you’ll benefit from IPL (intense pulsed light) therapy. A photofacial with IPL is a skin rejuvenation treatment for adult men and women with hyperpigmentation concerns on their neck and face, including benefits to skin brightness and blood vessel appearance. IPL may be a noninvasive procedure but can be highly effective and create great results. Dr. Awa Igbinadolor uses intense pulses of light energy that heat the skin just enough to start the natural healing process and boost collagen production. Over time, you should see a healthier complexion with a more even tone and decreased dark spots.
A photofacial is performed inside our Charlotte, NC office in about 20 – 30 minutes in our comfortable treatment room. To begin the IPL facial, your technician will clean and dry your skin before covering your eyes with goggles. The IPL photofacial is performed using a handheld wand that will pass over the skin while emitting light energy pulses. While most patients will have some discomfort throughout the IPL photofacial, it is usually tolerable for the short treatment length.
Sculptra works by gently stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production to restore lost volume and improve overall texture. You’ll begin with a consultation where Dr. Igbinadolor learns about your goals and creates a personalized treatment plan. During the appointment, Sculptra — made from poly-L-lactic acid — is injected into specific areas of the face to help your body rebuild collagen from within. The treatment usually takes about 30 – 45 minutes, and a numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. Most people notice only slight swelling or tenderness afterward, with no major downtime. Over the next few weeks, your skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking as your collagen naturally develops for beautiful, long-lasting results.
Even if you didn't think much about your skin's health when you were a child, you now might be interested in treatments that fix your skin. We encourage you to find out more about IPL photofacial treatments by calling our Charlotte, NC office and making an appointment for a skin assessment with Dr. Awa. With IPL photofacial treatments at Prestige Med Spa and Wellness Center, we can reach the deeper layers of damaged skin to help create a youthful glow and a smooth complexion.
Corrective light-based treatment should be targeted, gentle, and personalized to your skin.
