IPL Photofacial Treatment

IPL Photofacials in Downtown Los Angeles

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does IPL hurt?

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.

How many treatments do I need?

Most patients see excellent results with 3-5 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 6-12 months help preserve results.

What's the difference between IPL and BBL?

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.

When will I see results?

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.

Can I go in the sun after treatment?

Avoid direct sun exposure for 2 weeks before and after treatment. Daily SPF 30+ is mandatory. Tanning beds are prohibited during your treatment series.

Who is not a candidate for IPL?

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.
