Reveal Clearer, Brighter Skin with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy
If you're struggling with sun damage, redness, or uneven pigmentation, IPL Laser Treatments at Reflections Med Spa in Edmond, OK offer a safe and effective way to restore your skin’s natural glow. Also known as a photofacial, this advanced light-based therapy targets discoloration, broken capillaries, and signs of aging—leaving you with visibly clearer, smoother skin.
What Is IPL Laser Treatment?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation technique that uses multiple wavelengths of light to treat various skin imperfections. Unlike laser treatments that use a single wavelength, IPL delivers broad-spectrum light that penetrates deep into the skin without damaging the surface.
This light energy is absorbed by pigment and blood vessels in the skin, breaking up excess melanin and closing off broken capillaries, which are then naturally eliminated by the body over time.
What IPL Treats
IPL photofacials are ideal for addressing:
- Sun damage and brown spots
- Redness and rosacea
- Broken capillaries and facial veins
- Hyperpigmentation
- Uneven skin tone
- Fine lines and early signs of aging
- Acne-related discoloration
- Freckles and age spots
- Enlarged pores
This treatment is commonly used on the face, neck, chest, hands, and shoulders, and can be customized for your unique skin type and goals.

What to Expect During and After Treatment
Before Your Treatment
Avoid direct sun exposure, self-tanners, and exfoliating products for at least one week before your IPL session. Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup or lotions.
During the Procedure
Our experienced providers will apply a cooling gel to your skin and use a handheld device to deliver controlled pulses of light. You may feel a slight snapping sensation, similar to a rubber band, but discomfort is minimal.
Aftercare and Results
Mild redness and sensitivity are common immediately after treatment, typically resolving within a few hours. Dark spots may temporarily darken before flaking off naturally. Results become noticeable within one to two weeks, and a series of 3–5 treatments spaced about a month apart is often recommended for optimal results.
