What Is an IPL Photofacial?
An IPL Photofacial uses controlled bursts of intense pulsed light to penetrate the skin and target pigmented or damaged cells. The light is absorbed by melanin and hemoglobin, which causes dark spots, redness, and other imperfections to gradually fade as the skin heals.
It’s not a laser, but it delivers similar results — improving skin tone, fading sun damage, and stimulating collagen production — without ablation or downtime.

- Your provider will cleanse your skin and apply a cooling gel
- A handheld IPL device is passed over the treatment area in pulses
- You may feel a warm snap — like a rubber band — but it’s well-tolerated
- Most sessions last 20–30 minutes

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs About IPL Photofacials in Franklin & Murfreesboro, TN
Am I a candidate for IPL Photofacial?
You may be a good candidate if you have light to medium skin tone and are looking to improve pigmentation, redness, or overall skin clarity without downtime. A consultation at AWSkinCo+ will confirm whether IPL is the right option for your skin type and goals.
What is an IPL Photofacial?
An IPL Photofacial is a light-based treatment that uses broad-spectrum pulses of light to reduce sun damage, discoloration, and redness. It targets pigment and vascular irregularities beneath the skin without harming the surface.
How does IPL Photofacial work?
The device emits multiple wavelengths of light that are absorbed by pigment (like dark spots) or blood vessels (like redness). These areas absorb the energy, break down, and are naturally cleared by your body over time.
How many IPL Photofacial treatments are needed?
Most patients need 3 to 5 treatments, spaced about 4 weeks apart, to see full improvement. Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months help prolong results.
What to expect after IPL Photofacial?
You may have redness similar to a mild sunburn right after treatment. Dark spots may temporarily darken before flaking off. Makeup can usually be worn the next day, and most patients return to normal routines immediately.
Will an IPL Photofacial improve my complexion overall? When will I see results?
Yes — IPL photofacials can significantly improve your overall complexion, the treatment is clinically proven to reduce sunspots, redness, and uneven pigmentation. Most patients start to see visible results within 7 to 10 days after the first treatment, with continued improvement after each session in a series tailored to your goals.
