What is a "PhotoFacial"?

Steve Fallek (Plastic Surgeon and Medical Director, Face Focus Medical Spa) gives expert video advice on: Who should not receive a PhotoFacial?; How does a PhotoFacial treat Rosacea?; What results can I expect from a PhotoFacial treatment? and more...

A PhotoFacial really demonstrates what a medaspa is all about. It's really a combination between the medical procedure and the beauty procedure. A PhotoFacial uses the IPL or intense pulse light machine and it is applied to the face. The whole procedure takes about 20 to 25 minutes. It goes across the whole face and what is it supposed to do? It will make the skin look better, more glowing. Darker spots should initially get darker, but then within a couple of days go away and basically gives your skin a healthy glowing look which is really why you are at the medispa.
