Erase sun spots, redness, and broken capillaries for clearer, more even-toned skin — with little to no downtime.
IPL (intense pulsed light) photo rejuvenation uses broad-spectrum light to target pigment and redness beneath the skin, fading sun spots, age spots, rosacea, and broken capillaries for a clearer, more even complexion. Especially valuable in sunny Arizona, it improves the visible signs of sun damage with little downtime. At Natural Results, IPL is performed under board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Carlos Mata (Dr. Scottsdale®).
IPL delivers pulses of broad-spectrum light absorbed by pigment (brown spots) and hemoglobin (redness), breaking them down so the body can clear them. Brown spots often darken briefly then flake away, while redness fades.
For deeper texture and wrinkles, resurfacing like fractional CO2 laser may be added.
Downtime is minimal — some redness and temporary darkening of spots. A series of treatments gives the best result, with diligent sun protection to maintain it.
Candidacy is ultimately a conversation. Dr. Mata will determine the right path at consultation.
