IPL treatments for acne concerns typically use specific wavelengths and filters to target different elements of acne. These include:
1) 420 nm (blue light) to destroy acne-causing bacteria.
2) 560 nm (yellow light) to reduce inflammation and treat inflammatory acne lesions.
3) 590 nm (red light) to regulate overactive sebaceous oil glands.
These wavelengths, combined with appropriate filters, offer a comprehensive approach to addressing acne-prone skin, targeting bacteria, inflammation, and excessive oil production.
