Question:
I love the results from my bi-annual IPL, is there anything that will exfoliate as well, or is this too harsh for my skin?
Answer:
Biannual broadband light treatments, which is a type of IPL or intense pulsed light, is a great way to maintain your skin condition. If a patient is also looking to exfoliate the skin as well, they can combine BBL with a light erbium laser called Whisper-3G. We refer to this as the BBL ULTRA PEEL. A combination of BBL to treat the dermis as well as the erbium laser to treat the epidermis provides very nice improvement for dermal rejuvenation, brown spots, broken capillaries and skin tone and texture.
