IPL is most effective for patients with lighter to medium skin tones who are looking to correct reds and brown spots. Because the light targets pigment, it is generally not recommended for those with very deep skin tones or a recent, heavy tan. During your intake, we will perform a careful skin-type assessment to ensure IPL is the safest and most effective tool for your goals.
Recovery is minimal, though you may feel a slight "sunburn" sensation for a few hours. The most important thing to know is that brown spots will often darken (looking like "coffee grounds") before they naturally flake off within 7 to 10 days. We ask that you avoid direct sun exposure and wear a strict physical sunblock during this time. Since we are a coastal practice, we’ll make sure you have the best advice for keeping your skin safe while it heals.
You will begin to see a more even skin tone within one to two weeks after your first treatment as the targeted pigment clears. However, the most transformative results occur after a series of 3 to 5 sessions, spaced about a month apart. With proper sun protection and a healthy skincare routine, your clearer, brighter complexion can last for many months. We’ll track your progress at Blue Medical to ensure you reach your personal standard of radiance.

We don’t believe in over-promising; we believe in real, clinical results delivered in a tranquil, professional environment. We are here to help you navigate your skin health with the expert care and warm welcome you deserve from a team that knows your name.
Most patients describe the sensation as a quick, hot snap. It is brief and generally very well-tolerated. We use cooling gel and techniques to make the experience as comfortable as possible.
While you may see improvement after one session, a series of 3 to 5 treatments is typically recommended to achieve full clearing of sun damage and redness.
You can, but you must be extremely diligent about sun avoidance. If you have an active tan or have been spending a lot of time on the Wilmington beaches, we may suggest waiting until your tan fades to ensure a safe treatment.
IPL clears existing damage, but it cannot prevent new spots from forming if you continue to have sun exposure. A high-quality daily SPF is your best friend for maintaining your results!
There is no social downtime. You can wear makeup immediately after treatment, though your sunspots may appear darker for a few days before they flake away.
