“IPL is the treatment of choice for no-fuss. For women who say, ‘I really don’t like to wear makeup,’ this is it.”
Courtney Lo, PA and Founder
What is IPL like?
15 to 30-minute treatments
We treat the targeted area fast. IPL can be used on a couple of spots or on entire areas like face, neck, chest, limbs or hands.
IPL AfterCare
Immediately post treatment, your skin will be pink, which is easily covered with makeup. Sun spots will look darker for a week, then fade.
IPL expected results
One treatment helps. Best results are achieved with a series of 3-5 treatments. Maintain your results with an annual treatment.
Preserve your IPL results by using an SPF 30+ daily, avoiding the sun, and applying proper skincare that focuses on exfoliation.

Amanda was patient and made me feel good and helped me develop a plan. I was so happy with the results from my IPL facial as well as my injections. I can’t imagine going anywhere else.”
