Dynamic Pulse Control (DPC) is a proprietary light-based technology that delivers outstanding skin rejuvenation results from wrinkle reduction, to improving skin tone and texture. This IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Treatment, also known as Photofacial , is a completely non-invasive, fast and painless procedure to correct superficial imperfections. If you are looking for ways to achieve a clear, luminous complexion without any downtime, an IPL treatment might be the best treatment option for you.
When to consider an IPL Photofacial?
• Sun-damaged skin
• Age Spots
• Hyperpigmentation
• Aging Skin
• Rosacea
• Broken Capillaries
• Enlarged pores
• Sagging skin
• Wrinkles
How does it work?
During treatment, DPC pulses are emitted onto the target
area. Depending on the condition that is being treated, your aesthetic
physician can choose the best energy level - from very high to low pulses.
The pulses penetrate the dermal layer of the skin and heat up the tissue.
The heat causes the collagen fibers to contract, which yields immediate skin
tightening results. It also stimulates the body to create new collagen, which
helps the skin to restore its elasticity and firmness and delivers long-term
results.

Q. When will I see results?
A. You may see visible results after the very 1st treatment.
Your skin will feel tighter and smoother. In order to achieve long-
term results, it is recommended to undergo several treatments.
Is there a lot of down time associated with the treatment?
A. You might experience temporary redness in the treatment
area which should pass within several hours.
Q. How many treatments are required?
A. The typical regimen is an average of 5 treatment sessions,
spaced 4 weeks apart for optimal results. A full facial skin rejuvenation
treatment takes anywhere between 15-30 minutes, after which you can continue
your daily routine.
Q. Are the treatments safe and painless?
A. SharpLight’s skin rejuvenation treatment is non-invasive and safe.
During the procedure, there may be a slight 1-2 second, momentary stinging
sensation that may be felt, but no pain. The treatments have no downtime so
you can get them done during your lunch hour and immediately proceed with your
daily routine.
