Brown and Red Spots are common skin discolorations that many individuals seek to correct. These spots, which can be due to sun exposure, aging, or vascular issues, appear as darker or reddish patches on the skin. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy effectively treats these discolorations. The IPL laser targets pigmented and vascular lesions with light energy, which is absorbed by the pigments (in the case of brown spots) or the blood vessels (in the case of red spots), helping to fade these marks over time.
For individuals dealing with Brown and Red Spots in East Greenwich, RI, IPL treatment at a professional clinic offers a safe option. Results from IPL therapy can usually be observed after a few sessions, with the skin’s appearance continuing to improve with subsequent treatments. In most cases, the results last several months before any touch-ups are needed. If you want to improve the clarity and evenness of your skin tone, consider scheduling a consultation with Ocean State Laser and Aesthetics in East Greenwich, RI, to explore how IPL can refresh your skin’s appearance.

With Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), you can target and reduce brown and red spots on the skin. IPL penetrates the skin using broad-spectrum light to break down pigmented cells and vascular lesions, promoting a clearer and more even complexion. In addition to treating sun damage, age spots, and rosacea, IPL is a quick and effective solution with minimal downtime, allowing you to enjoy rejuvenated skin with lasting results.
Brown and Red Spots are skin discoloration often caused by sun damage, aging, or blood vessel visibility. Energy Based Devices treats these by emitting wavelengths of light absorbed by the discolored pigments or blood vessels, helping to diminish their appearance.
Energy Based Devices procedures involve minimal discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a small snap with each pulse of light, which is generally well-tolerated.
The number of sessions varies depending on the severity and size of the spots but typically ranges from 3 to 5 sessions spaced about one month apart.
Energy Based Devices is versatile but works best with lighter skin tones because of the contrast between the discoloration and the surrounding skin. Patients with darker skin tones should consult a specialist to assess their suitability for Energy Based Devices.
Post-treatment, you may notice mild redness and darkening of the treated spots, which usually fade within a week. The spots will then begin to lighten over the following weeks.
Maintaining the results involves protecting your skin from the sun using SPF, using appropriate skincare products as your aesthetician recommends, and possibly scheduling maintenance sessions if new spots appear or existing ones re-darken.
