IPL Pigmentation Treatment

Remove spots and pigmentation marks with IPL in Järfälla. Treatment for sun damage and uneven skin tone in Barkarbystaden.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is one of the most effective methods for removing spots, pigmentation marks and sun damage. The light is drawn to the melanin in the pigmented areas and breaks it down, after which the marks darken, are shed and disappear naturally. The treatment gives a more even and clearer skin tone from the very first session. We treat age spots, sun spots, melasma and general uneven skin tone on the face, hands, décolletage and other sun-exposed areas.

Frequently asked questions

How does IPL work on pigmentation marks?

+

The IPL light is drawn to the melanin (the pigment) in the marks. The light heats and fragments the pigment. The marks darken at first, then the damaged pigment is shed as the skin renews itself, and the marks fade or disappear.

How many treatments are needed?

+

Most people see a clear improvement after just 1-2 treatments. For the best result we recommend a course of 3-5 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart.

Can I sunbathe after the treatment?

+

No, you need to avoid the sun for at least 4 weeks before and after the treatment. Use a high-SPF sunscreen every day. The treatment is best carried out during autumn and winter, when you are not tanned.

Is IPL suitable for every skin type?

+

IPL works best on lighter skin types (I-IV). Darker skin types have a higher risk of pigment changes and may need alternative treatments. We always make an individual assessment at the consultation.
