• Sun damaged skin with scaley spots or discolorations?
• Cystic acne with angry red spots or lots of yellow pustules?
• Enlarged pores that are prone to blackheads and pimples?
• Skin texture that is rough or flaky?
• Dark spots or strange pigmentations on your skin?
• Deep wrinkles or weathered skin?
• Yellow or flesh-toned bumps on your skin (Sebaceous Hyperplasia)?

If you have one or more of these conditions, you may be a candidate for photodynamic light therapy with an active agent that treats many of these symptoms.

• A skin care specialist or the doctor will apply the medicine.
• After one hour you will have a PhotoFacial™ treatment with IPL (intense pulse light).
• You may be given an anesthetic topical cream applied prior to the light exposure.
• You will be given special goggles to wear to protect your eyes during the IPL treatment.
• During the treatment you may feel stinging, tingling, prickling, or burning of the lesions, but this should go away after the treatment.
• You should stay out of the sun and bright light as much as possible for the next 48 hours.
• The skin will turn red and swollen in the following three to seven days.
• Some crusting and peeling may be noted.
• There should be some discomfort, but no significant pain.
• After one week, there might be some residual redness that will subside after a few days and can be covered with makeup.
