Non-Ablative Photofacial: Using IPL (intense pulsed light) the laser targets brown spots caused by sun damaged and aged skin. The targeted area, often the forehead and face will lead to reduction in the pigmented appearance and smoothing of skin color. IPL can be used to target sun damage or age related spots in other regions as well.
