Why Is IPL Better Than Laser?
IPL is less powerful than laser light. Since all light therapies work by producing heat to dissolve the target, less heat means less danger of burn injury and scarring. IPL is capable of producing enough light energy to remove many skin abnormalities, but is able to do so with less energy, less heat and less risk of over treatment and scarring than with lasers. IPL treatments are less painful than laser treatments and do not require a topical anesthetic.
