It may feel like a rubber band flicking against your skin but it is very tolerable. 

Following the procedure, many patients may observe redness and swelling in the treated region, which is simply a natural skin healing response and typically subsides within a few hours to a couple of days, depending on the treatment intensity.

A few individuals might experience mild scabbing or crust formation in the pigmented areas for several days post-IPL treatment. This occurrence is expected and is indeed a desired effect of the treatment. These areas will naturally shed within a few days and can be concealed with makeup, generally not causing any disruption to daily activities.

It’s advised to steer clear of direct sun exposure on the treated area for a minimum of two weeks post-procedure to minimize potential hyperpigmentation, which is darkening of the skin. Additionally, we strongly suggest applying sunscreen consistently after the procedure to safeguard your skin from any additional harm.
