How many times a year can you have the IPL facial procedure done?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You can have these done every 3-4 weeks without any issues.  I often combine these with peels, lasers and microneedling/PRP to get enhanced results.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Richard Ort, MD · Answer

There is no limit on the number of IPL treatments that you can have.  We call these treatments "photofacials."  Usually we space them out about once a month.  Studies have shown that patients who do regular photofacials will delay the signs of skin aging and will maintain more youthful skin.  Sometimes it is necessary to delay photofacials in the summer if a patient has a tan.  We don't use IPL on tanned skin.  Overall photofacials are one of our most popular and successful treatments with little downtime.
