How Does IPL Work?

IPL therapy uses gentle light pulses to target the skin around the eyes. The light energy is absorbed by blood vessels and pigments in the skin, generating heat.

The heat breaks down unwanted pigmentation, melts oils trapped in the eyelids, and stimulates collagen to control inflammation and rejuvenate the skin.

IPL helps trigger a natural renewal process that can restore eye comfort and refresh your skin.

What Eye Conditions Can IPL Treat?

Beyond soothing dry eye symptoms, IPL can help treat a variety of eye conditions, such as:

What Skin Conditions Can IPL Improve?

IPL can help address a variety of skin concerns, such as:

  • Rosacea
  • Age spots and sun damage
  • Acne and acne scars
  • Fine lines
  • Vascular lesions (e.g., spider veins)

What to Expect After IPL

Most people experience minimal discomfort during IPL treatments. Some may feel a slight stinging or warmth.

After the procedure, you may notice some redness or swelling, which should subside within a few days. Typically, no downtime is necessary; you can return to your routine immediately after your IPL session.

The number of treatments needed can vary depending on your specific condition and goals. You may notice early improvements in as little as 2 sessions, but most people benefit from 4–6 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart.

You deserve to wake up every morning with refreshed, hydrated skin and eyes that feel bright and clear. Skincare and eyecare go together like frames and lenses, and we’re proud to offer clinically reviewed skincare brands like EltaMD and PCA Skin.
