Dye-VL IPL
Improve Hyperpigmentation with Dye-VL IPL Photofacial
The Dye-VL laser improves on the traditional dye laser for treating vascular lesions and pigmentation variances. This versatile treatment targets melanin and clears away dark spots, acne scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles to leave behind smooth, unblemished skin. It can also treat broken capillaries, red spots, and venous malformation. This treatment is safe and appropriate for light to olive skin tones. We recommend pretreatment of the skin 6 weeks prior, and we can assist with this. There is no downtime, however hyperpigmented areas will darken over 5-7 days.
What is Dye VL and how does it work?
Dye VL (Dye Variable Light) is a type of intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment that uses multiple wavelengths to target different skin concerns. It is powered by the advanced Harmony XL Pro system and can be customized to suit individual skin types and conditions. During the treatment, light energy from the Dye VL handpiece is absorbed by specific targets in the skin, such as melanin or red blood cells. This energy then converts into heat, destroying these targeted cells without damaging surrounding tissues.
What Skin Conditions Can Be Treated?
Dye VL treatment is highly versatile and can effectively address a range of common skin conditions such as rosacea, sun damage, acne scars, age spots, freckles, and uneven skin tone. It can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production. Dye VL treatment is highly versatile and can address a wide range of skin conditions including:
- Sun damage
- Rosacea

What Results Can You Expect?
After just one session, you will notice a significant improvement in your skin's appearance. However, for optimal results, we recommend multiple sessions. The number of treatments required will vary depending on your specific skin concern and its severity.

- Reduction in hyperpigmentation and dark spots

- Improved texture and firmness of the skin
- Overall brighter and more youthful-looking skin
Results may vary from person to person, but most clients see significant improvements after just a few sessions.
