The IPL light destroys quickly multiplying bacteria which is responsible for inflammation in case of acne. The way it works is similar to antibiotics, although these might cause a whole range of side effects damaging your liver and stomach. Research all over the world proved that treatment using IPL systems show three times faster results than while using traditional methods. We achieve especially spectacular results in treatment of acne with purulent changes. A series of 3-5 treatments in 7 day intervals is recommended.
