The IPL Photofacial Process
What to Expect
01.
Your Consultation
Before your IPL photofacial in Charlottesville, you'll sit down for an in-depth consultation with one of our highly trained nurse practitioners. During this conversation, we'll discuss your concerns and your goals as well as examine your skin. Using this information your aesthetician will curate a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.
02.
Your Treatment
Each time you visit Neroli Med Spa for your IPL treatments, you'll be shown to one of our comfortable treatment rooms. Your aesthetician will cleanse and prep your skin before beginning the treatment with the handheld IPL device. The treatment will take 30 to 45 minutes.
03.
Your Results
There's no required downtime after you receive your IPL photofacial. We do recommend that you avoid prolonged sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect your skin. Most of our patients resume their normal activities immediately and start to notice their skin improving after just one treatment. We typically recommend a series of 3 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.

Frequently Asked Questions
IPL results are both immediate and progressive. You may start to notice improvement after your first treatment and results will continue to improve over time. Most patients are able to see results within a week to 10 days.
IPL can be used to treat almost any area of the body. The most popular areas are the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands.
Results from an IPL photofacial can last for several years. Diligently using SPF+, avoiding sun exposure, and maintaining correct at-home skincare maintenance can prolong the results and keep your skin healthy.
You should avoid makeup while your skin is healing after IPL. Generally, it’s safe to wear makeup 24 hours after your treatment, unless the skin is broken or irritated.
