MedBeautyLA is the premiere spot for the best laser facials in downtown Los Angeles. We offer an array of laser-based treatments that target a wide variety of skin concerns — from brown spots, melasma, spider veins, acne, and beyond. We use the state-of-the-art Stellar M22 laser, which yields incredibly effective results while providing one of the most comfortable patient experiences on the market.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) photofacials use advanced light technology to target pigmentation, redness, and sun damage beneath the skin's surface. The light energy is absorbed by melanin (brown spots) and hemoglobin (red vessels), breaking them down so your body can naturally eliminate them.

Leg veins, broken capillaries, redness, scarring and more. Here is how our IPL photofacials and Stellar M22 laser treatments work, what they can do and what to expect.
IPL/BBL and laser use light and energy to heal the skin from within. These treatments can address melasma and brown spots, redness, acne scarring, and skin tone and texture, and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Our experienced providers begin every session with a consultation to make sure you are receiving the laser treatment best suited to your skin's needs.
Along with brown spots, melasma, spider veins and acne, the Stellar M22 also powers our laser hair removal, so one platform covers a wide variety of skin concerns.
These clinical photos show the range of concerns the Stellar M22 platform treats, from acne and rosacea to sun damage and leg veins.
Once you are determined to be a good candidate for laser therapy, your provider will determine which laser treatment is right for you and your goals. We offer laser therapy for the following conditions:
Laser treatments generally take about 30 minutes and are only mildly uncomfortable. Many clients describe the experience as feeling like a "rubber band being snapped against your skin." You will be provided topical numbing cream for more intense laser treatments to make sure you are as comfortable as possible.
An IPL photofacial for the face is $355 per session. An IPL spot treatment is $150, and a ResurFX + IPL combo session is $910. Call, text or email us for more information on pricing, or book your initial consult online. You can also see our full laser facial menu.
Most patients describe the sensation as a rubber band snap followed by warmth. The Stellar M22 has built-in cooling for comfort. No numbing is needed and most find it very tolerable.
Most patients see excellent results with 3-5 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 6-12 months help preserve results.
BBL (BroadBand Light) is an advanced form of IPL with more precise wavelengths and better results. Our Stellar M22 offers both technologies for optimal outcomes.
Brown spots darken within 24 hours and flake off in 7-10 days. Redness improves gradually over 2-3 weeks. Full results visible after completing your series.
Avoid direct sun exposure for 2 weeks before and after treatment. Daily SPF 30+ is mandatory. Tanning beds are prohibited during your treatment series.
IPL works best on lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick I-IV). Very dark or recently tanned skin is not suitable. We'll assess your candidacy during consultation.
Absolutely! IPL itself works best on lighter skin tones, but there are safe and effective laser treatments for melanin-rich skin. Read more about the options in our blog on IPL alternatives for dark skin tones.
