Photofacial
Does it seem like another brown spot or red dot appears on your face every time you stop to look in the mirror? Clear, evenly colored skin helps you look young and feel great about yourself, which naturally invigorates your busy life. Board-Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Anna Petropoulos, is an innovator in non-surgical facial rejuvenation and has helped restore youthful freshness to her New England patients’ skin with photofacial treatments. Photofacials go by a variety of names including broadband light (BBL), intense pulse light (IPL), and photorejuvenation.
In the Boston area, photofacial treatments offer an effective solution for those looking to correct signs of aging and sun damage on the face, neck, chest, and hands. This treatment not only fades freckles, sun spots, age spots, and uneven pigmentation but also clears redness from facial veins and capillaries, boosts collagen production for improved skin tone and texture, and minimizes pore size. As part of her comprehensive range of non-surgical treatments, Dr. Petropoulos provides personalized consultations to help you choose the best option for your cosmetic goals, and she is also available to discuss facial cosmetic surgery alternatives for more extensive rejuvenation.

BENEFITS
Pigmentation Correction
Photofacials effectively reduce and fade various types of skin pigmentation issues such as freckles, sun spots, age spots, and other uneven pigmentation, leading to a more even skin tone.
Redness & Rosacea Reduction
The treatment is particularly effective in clearing facial redness, including conditions like rosacea, caused by visible veins and capillaries, resulting in a clearer complexion.
Enhanced Skin Texture & Tone
Photofacials stimulate collagen production, improving overall skin texture and tone, which contributes to smoother, healthier-looking skin.
Pore Size Minimization
The treatment helps in minimizing the appearance of large pores, enhancing the skin’s overall appearance and contributing to a more refined complexion.
IPL Treatment
After a cool gel is smoothed over the skin, pulses of high energy light are emitted as the IPL handpiece is gently run over the targeted areas. Patients describe the feeling as a mild sting and can elect to use topical anesthetic cream. We can treat a wide variety of skin types and conditions with precise control over the depth of treatment and coverage area.
Photofacial treatments are gentle and non-ablative, and therefore do not disrupt the surface of the skin. To you this means that you can immediately return to your life after treatment without any downtime. A series of 3 to 5 treatments, performed at 4 week intervals, are usually necessary to give you impressive, lasting improvements.
