PDL (Pulsed Dye Laser)

Pulsed Dye Laser (PDL) treatment is a type of laser therapy used for addressing various skin conditions.

PDL treatment is commonly used to address conditions such as rosacea, spider veins, port wine stains, vascular birthmarks, and certain types of scars.

PDL treatment involves the emission of a concentrated beam of light that targets specific blood vessels or pigmented areas in the skin. This energy causes blood vessels to coagulate and pigmentation to break down, leading to improved skin appearance.

Most clients experience minimal discomfort during PDL treatment. Some describe it as a sensation similar to the snapping of a rubber band on the skin.

The duration of a PDL session can vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the condition being addressed. However, most sessions are relatively quick, lasting anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour.

The number of sessions required varies depending on the individual and the specific condition being treated. Multiple sessions are often needed for optimal results, and one of our providers will create a personalized treatment plan for you.

Generally, there is little to no downtime after a PDL treatment. Some clients may experience temporary redness or mild swelling, but this usually resolves within a few hours to a few days.

PDL treatment is considered safe when performed by one of our trained professionals. Potential side effects may include temporary bruising, redness, or swelling, but these are usually mild and short-lived.

PDL treatment is suitable for a wide range of skin types, but it is essential to consult with one of our experienced providers to determine if it is the right treatment for your specific skin condition and type.

The longevity of PDL treatment results can vary depending on the condition being treated and individual factors. In some cases, results can last for several months to years. Maintenance sessions may be recommended to sustain the benefits.
