People with very dark skin tones may not be good candidates for IPL skin care treatments. During your consultation, we’ll take a close look at your skin conditions and ensure you’re a good candidate or recommend a better treatment plan. Some conditions in uneven areas of the skin may be harder to treat with IPL. Some medications sensitize the skin to light and patients who are taking them should not be treated with IPL
For hair removal, IPL generally isn’t as effective for those with light red, gray or very light blonde hair.
