IPL Skin Treatment in Calgary
Perfect for treating dull-looking, red, sun-damaged or aging skin
What is IPL Photofacial?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) works by targeting melanin (pigment cells) and hemoglobin (broken blood vessels) in the skin without damaging surrounding skin tissue.
We have got you covered with a quick and hassle-free solution called IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) photo facials using the powerful Quanta IPL.
Typically, only 1 or 2 easy treatments of 20-30 minutes (absolutely painless) are needed to tackle various skin issues:
Sunspots and freckles
Dark spots from acne and hyperpigmentation
Redness from Rosacea or sun damage
Chest redness or dark spots
Age spots or dark spots on your hands and arms
Please notice that IPL fixes existing issues but won’t shield you from future skin damage: your daily routine also matters!
Use the recommended products, slather on sunscreen, and live your best, healthy life. Touch-ups might be required every 1-4 years for most people.
PRICING:
IPL FULL FACE TREATMENT – INITIAL SESSION $270 (Includes laser and cautery for pigment and broken vessels if needed)
IPL FULL FACE TREATMENT – SUBSEQUENT SESSIONS $250
Most clients see a noticeable improvement after 1-2 sessions
How does IPL work?
IPL is NOT a laser; think of it as a superhero Xenon light. It’s perfect for treating surface-level sun damage and those broken vessels. It’s like a makeover for your skin, targeting imperfections and leaving you with an even, radiant complexion.
WONDERING IF YOU’RE A GOOD FIT FOR AN IPL PHOTOFACIAL TREATMENT?
If you want to even out your skin tone, combat aging signs, or say goodbye to redness, brown spots, and freckles, you’re in. Just a heads up – this treatment works best for lighter skin tones. If you’re a sun worshipper without sunscreen or a fan of tanning beds, you might need to reconsider.

Frequently Asked Questions about IPL Photofacial
Are there risks in doing IPL Treatments?
When done by a pro, IPL is very safe. Unlike laser hair removal, IPL CANNOT safely be done on darker skin. Dark skin likes to hold on to too much heat, which will result in a burn, or temporary discoloration of the skin. There are lots of other great options for beautiful darker skin colors though!
What happens during the IPL Photo facial treatment?
It’s a breeze, taking around 30-45 minutes. No numbing cream required. The technician preps you with skincare tips, and during the treatment, you’ll feel quick snaps of heat – uncomfortable but totally bearable.
What happens after an IPL treatment?
Well, it depends on the intensity of the treatment. You might experience some redness and darkened pigment spots, but these are temporary. No rubbing, scratching, or exfoliating during the healing process, though.
What does IPL feel like?
IPL should NOT be a painful treatment! It feels like a warm band snapping and leaves a tingle after for a few minutes. You might be blotchy red for a few hours and any dark spots will appear a few shades darker until they naturally flake away.
Scabs and crusting are not normal after IPL.
When will I see results?
you should very slowly see changes over the next 1-2 weeks. Most likely, you’ll need 2-3 treatments for optimal results.
