IPL Laser Risks & Safety

Lasers have been used for the past 2 decades very safely by dermatologists. At this time there are no studies which have been conducted relating IPL to skin cancer. The UV rays from the sun and tanning salons pose far greater risks for skin cancer. 

There is no evidence to suggest that IPL is carcinogenic. IPL typically uses wavelengths of scattered light that are between 500-1500 nm, out of the spectrum of typical UV A and B light.
