Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is a revolutionary treatment that addresses various skin problems, primarily focusing on pigmentation issues. As we age or expose our skin to the sun, we often notice dark spots, discolorations, and uneven skin tones. They are primarily due to overproduction or clumping of melanin, the pigment responsible for our skin colour.
IPL is a promising solution for those struggling with skin pigmentation issues. It offers a non-invasive and effective method to achieve clearer and rejuvenated skin. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, it is essential to consult with a professional to determine if IPL is the right choice for you.
Benefits include a luminous even complexion, improved tone and texture, fine line and wrinkle reduction and a youthful healthy glow.

Lucent IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a state-of-the-art, non-invasive treatment that offers a solution to various skin problems including pigmentation, sun damage and uneven skin tone. This procedure uses light energy to target and treat these problems, delivering impressive results in a range of treatments.
During a Lucent IPL session, clients may experience a snapping sensation along with some heat on the treated area. However, these sensations are generally mild and well tolerated, ensuring a comfortable experience throughout the procedure.
Once the Lucent IPL treatment is completed, it is common for the brown spots to darken and the skin to appear red. This temporary redness usually disappears within 3 to 24 hours, gradually revealing the improved skin tone.
Patients can expect to see visible improvements in skin complexion and lightening of dark spots approximately 1 to 3 weeks after treatment. The full effects of the treatment will become more apparent as the skin heals and rejuvenates over time.

This is the clinic to go to for laser hair removal and for hair restoration. Nurse Pegah is very detailed and knowledgeable in the services she provides. She never missed a spot!

My first visit to Jack Nathan Medspa this past week was an experience that I would like to share. I was turning 57 and had been thinking about receiving some treatments but was unsure about it all. I was greeted on my arrival with a welcoming staff member Christine and felt extremely comfortable...
IPL can also be used on any part of the body that endures the most sun exposure, such as the neck, hands, arms, and décolletage. To preserve your results and prevent new damage, it’s essential to wear a minimum SPF of 30 or higher daily.
IPL is a proven and effective treatment that can help reverse the signs of sun damage lying deep within the skin. IPL can improve skin texture, tone and discolouration with no downtime using a specific wavelength of broad-spectrum light to gently and precisely treat deep under the skin’s surface.
This light therapy treatment is often used to minimize or remove sun damage, age spots, freckles, birthmarks, rosacea and more!
Melasma is a skin condition that causes patches and spots, usually on the face, which are darker than your natural skin tone. There are two main causes of melasma: radiation, whether ultraviolet, visible light, or infrared (heat) light; and hormones.
Melasma is a common condition among women. Caused by excessive sun exposure on sensitive skin or a hormonal imbalance, it appears as brown spots in some places of your face. The forehead, cheeks, the bridge of the nose, and the upper lip are some of the most common places melasma appears. Regardless of the location or cause, the dark patches are caused by a higher concentration of melanin.
When using IPL to treat melasma, the intense pulsed light will penetrate into the deep layers of the skin. The heat will then destroy the cells with an excess of melanin and force the body to naturally produce new, healthy cells without the excess melanin.
After IPL treatment of melasma, the patches will get darker but as the production of new cells begins, you will see fewer and fewer dark spots. Extra precautions after IPL for melasma are to avoid sun exposure and use plenty of sunscreens.
IPL targets cells with excess pigment. When these cells absorb the light, it generates heat, which destroys the targeted cells. This process helps reduce the appearance of pigmentation and promotes new collagen growth in the skin.
Yes, IPL is effective in treating hyperpigmentation, age spots, and sunspots. However, the results can vary based on individual skin conditions and the number of sessions undertaken.
Typically, 3-4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart are recommended for optimal results. However, the exact number can vary depending on the individual’s skin condition.
Post-treatment, there might be an initial darkening of the treated areas, which is a natural part of the process. The damaged pigment cells rise to the skin’s surface and naturally flake off within 7-10 days, revealing clearer skin.
IPL treatments have minimal downtime. While there might be some redness or darkening of the treated areas, normal activities can be resumed immediately after the session.
The results of IPL treatments can last around one year. However, with proper skincare and sun protection, the results can be prolonged. Maintenance treatments once a year may be necessary to keep the skin in optimal condition.
During an IPL session, patients might feel a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping on the skin. While some discomfort is expected, numbing creams are often applied to minimize any pain during the treatment.
Yes, IPL can be used on various body areas, including the hands, arms, and anywhere else where discoloration is a concern.
No, while both IPL and laser treatments use light to treat skin issues, they are different. IPL uses broad-spectrum light, while lasers use a single wavelength of light. IPL is often considered gentler than laser treatment.
Lucent IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment offers an advanced and inexpensive solution for dark spots on the face. By emitting intense pulses of light, the treatment targets the melanin in the skin, which is responsible for the dark spots. As the melanin absorbs the light, it breaks down and is naturally removed by the body, creating a reduction in the appearance of dark spots.
After Lucent IPL treatment, patients may notice the dark spots initially darkening before gradually fading. This is a natural part of the process as the damaged pigment cells rise to the skin’s surface before naturally flaking off. Typically, within 7-10 days, the treated areas will show significant improvement, revealing clearer skin.
IPL treatment can significantly reduce the appearance of dark spots. However, it’s essential to note that while the results are long-lasting, they may not be permanent. Sun exposure and other factors can lead to the recurrence of dark spots.
Regular maintenance treatments and proper skin care can help extended the results.
The Lucent IPL system is extremely effective in treating dark spots. It uses advanced pulse technology, ensuring precision and safety. The device’s settings can be adjusted based on the individual’s skin type and the severity of the pigmentation, making it a versatile choice for addressing dark spots.
Lucent IPL treatment is generally safe with minimal side effects. Some patients might experience temporary redness or swelling in the treated area, but these symptoms usually subside within a few hours to days. It’s crucial to follow post-treatment care instructions and avoid sun exposure to minimize potential side effects.
Yes, Lucent IPL treatment can be combined with other skincare treatments for improved results. However, it’s essential to consult with a skincare professional from Jack Nathan MedSpa to determine the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.
