Conditions: Freckles

Fade Freckles. What might be adorable as a kid often proves less desirable as an adult.  Bleaching agents, strong acid peels or ablative lasers were a common approach until Intense Pulsed Light™ (IPL).  IPL freckle treatment works without causing allergic reactions², burns or the uneven skin tones often associated with bleaching.  And unlike aggressive peels and lasers, it doesn’t damage healthy tissue, cause scarring or require a lengthy recovery².  After a few gentle treatments, even the most stubborn freckles simply fade away³.
