Houston IPL Treatments

LimeLight™ also known as IPL or photo rejuvenation, is a procedure which has proven exceptionally effective in treating freckles or spots resulting from sun damage or age. LimeLight™ is also the gold standard treatment for rosacea. LimeLight™ may be used on the face, chest, back, and hands. At the Mirror Mirror Beauty Boutique, we use the state-of-the-art Cutera technology which, compared to older technologies, provides a more comfortable and more effective treatment along with improved results, minimal risk, and no downtime.

IPL Treatments in Houston, Texas

Good candidates for LimeLight™ treatment include men and women who are looking to improve the appearance of sun damage, age spots, and/or rosacea. LimeLight™ is an in-office procedure that takes less than thirty minutes to complete. Unlike other LimeLight™ systems, our LimeLight™ requires no numbing or messy gel applications prior to treatment.

Immediately after treatment, the spots will begin to darken. Patients may also experience some mild redness and swelling in the surrounding area. The darkened spots will fade or flake off within seven to ten days. Work and all normal activities may be resumed immediately after treatment. However, patients are strongly advised to use sunblock and to regularly reapply sunblock in hot humid weather. This is essential to a good treatment outcome.

LimeLight™ may be combined with Ulthera and Genesis procedures, to provide an even better result. Together they result in improved contours, tighter skin, fewer wrinkles, reduced pore size, and glowing, spot-free skin. The LimeLight Deluxe is another treatment where we can more quickly treat Actenic Keratosis, sun damage, etc.
