Photofacials are treatments that use light-emitting devices to treat skin discoloration and reduce the appearance of blemishes.
This procedure is ideal for those looking to treat a variety of common skin issues including wrinkles, large pores, and acne scars. It is important to note however that those with tans or naturally darker skin tones may not be eligible for certain photofacial treatments, as the procedure may cause skin discoloration.
While some redness and swelling may occur, these should subside within 24 hours and the procedure requires little to no downtime. Results are gradual with improvements to the skin beginning to appear in the days and weeks following treatment.
IPL photofacials involve light being absorbed into the skin. The more intense nature of the IPL photofacial’s light pulses allows this light to be absorbed more deeply.
IPL photofacial light is soaked up by the hemoglobin (red blood cells) and melanin (pigmentation) in the skin, intentionally damaging these areas. The damaged melanin breaks up and is absorbed by the skin, decreasing its appearance on the skin’s surface. The damaged hemoglobin stimulates blood flow, causing the melanin to be absorbed more efficiently.
Generally speaking, photofacials are used to treat skin blemishes and pigmentation issues. IPL photofacial treatments can be used to treat the following:
- Broken capillaries (blood vessels)
- Rosacea
- Sun damage (sun spots)
- Hyperpigmentation
- Spider veins
- Freckles
- Fine lines
IPL treatments can also effectively treat port wine stains, vascular lesions, and even remove unwanted hair.
Wonderfully friendly staff, and great care and concern for your health needs. I’ve referred several friends on the holiday specials on facial’s they offer!

After searching and searching for a place that I trusted, I decided to come here. Steve did an amazing job. He knew what he was doing and listened to exactly what I was wanting. This place is far more advanced in newer techniques than any of the other places in Wichita. I will definitely be coming here for any future treatments.

There have been a plethora of Weight Loss Clinics and Skin Care Facilities that have come and gone in the last several years. Steve and Pam have been serving Wichita for over 20 years. Give them serious consideration!!!
