At Lux Medical Aesthetic Clinic, we prioritise personalised care, and our doctor ensures that each patient undergoes a thorough consultation before beginning IPL treatment. This consultation allows us to assess your skin type and determine whether IPL is the right choice for addressing your specific concerns. During the consultation, our doctor will review your medical history and current skin condition to ensure the most appropriate treatment plan is developed for optimal outcomes.
Since IPL is non-invasive, most patients experience only slight redness, which usually subsides within a few hours. Downtime is minimal, and normal activities can often be resumed shortly after the procedure.
