IPL vs Pixel

 
 

Age, sun, and stress leave their marks on our skin, causing our complexion to become less vibrant over time. Staying out of the sun is the best way to avoid sun-damaged (photoaged) skin. Other precautions include using sunscreen daily, wearing protective clothing and avoiding sunlight in the middle of the day when UV rays are strongest. Treatment options to repair damaged skin include a skincare routine that efficient and consistent along with professional treatments that boost cell-turnover, lighten the existing pigments (chemical peels, laser skin resirfacing, laser and IPL rejuvenation, skin needling).

If you’ve considered rejuvenating your skin by getting rid of age or sun spots, reducing redness, acne scars, or any other signs of skin aging, you’ve likely heard of IPL and Pixel laser treatments. While both are able to treat common skin concerns, there are some differences between the two, which we’re here to help you understand.

Before we dive into the differences, let’s look at their similarities.

  • Both IPL and lasers use light to rejuvenate the skin. This is called and known as “photorejuvenation”.

  • IPL and lasers can both be used to treat the following skin conditions:

  • Age spots

  • Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): discoloration occurring after skin inflammation (like acne) or injury

  • Vascular lesions, such as spider veins, birthmarks, broken blood vessels, and cherry angiomas

  • Rosacea

  • Freckles

  • Sun damage

  • Unwanted facial and/or body hair
