Aurora (IPL)

The Aurora IPL uses Elos Technology. What this means is it pairs intense pulsed light technology with bipolar radiofrequency to give the most effective and safe treatment for facial rejuvenation, rosacea, and uneven brown pigmentation. Aurora is a leader in laser technology for cosmetic dermatology.

Q: What is the Aurora IPL best used for?
A: It works best to correct sun damage or irregular pigmentation on the face in fair skinned individuals. Over a course of treatments, the pigment corrects, blood vessels are reduced and skin texture is improved. Also hair growth is impeded or reduced too.

Q: How many treatments will it take?
A: It usually takes a series of 5 treatments to achieve the best result.

Q: What are the side effects? Will I have downtime?
A: Side effects and downtime are minimal. Some slight redness and swelling is possible. Brown spots will darken a shade or two and will gradually lighten over 1 to 2 weeks. Make up can be applied after treatment, and most patients continue with their day after their Aurora session.
