IPL Photorejuvenation

IPL Photorejuvenation by Dr. Stephen Greenberg, Manhattan and Long Island's premier cosmetic surgeon

What Is IPL Photorejuvenation?

IPL Photorejuvenation is a safe, non-invasive, skin treatment that can reverse the signs of aging, especially those due to sun damage. The technique uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) that penetrates the layers of the skin. The heat from the IPL stimulates the growth of new collagen, while destroying excess pigment, redness, spider veins, fine lines and enlarged pores. IPL photorejuvenation can be used on the face, hands, chest or arms. The results of IPL photorejuvenation are:

A more even skin tone
Reduction in pore size
Smoother skin
Fading of sunspots
Reduction of fine wrinkle lines

Optimal results can be seen after approximately four to six IPL photorejuvenation treatment sessions. Results can last for a year or longer.

Sun-damaged skin
Excess redness and flushed faces

The IPL Photorejuvenation Procedure…

The IPL photorejuvenation procedure is performed at Dr. Greenberg's Manhattan or Long Island cosmetic surgery office. Dr. Greenberg will apply a cold gel to your skin. He will then gently apply the IPL device to your treatment area. The IPL device delivers highly controlled light and heat which most patients do not find uncomfortable. One IPL photorejuvenation session lasts approximately 20 minutes. A series of four to six sessions is recommended for optimal results.
