IPL Photofacial
Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy, often known as a photo facial, is a non-invasive method of enhancing the colour and texture of your skin. Some of the visible ageing induced by exposure to the sun can be reversed by it. It may be noticeable on your face, neck, hands, or chest. If you have red, brown, or blotchy skin as a result of a medical issue, IPL could be able to help.
