How ARIA IPL Works
Broad-spectrum light targets melanin and hemoglobin beneath the skin. Pigmented spots gradually darken and flake away, while redness diminishes as vessels shrink. The skin becomes brighter, clearer, and more even over a series of treatments.
Treatment Process
- Skin analysis and parameter selection
- Cleansing and cooling gel application
- IPL light pulses over targeted areas
- Cooling and calming care
- Same-day return to normal activities
Session time: 15–25 minutes
Results & Timeline
- Fresher, brighter tone visible within 1–2 weeks
- Dark spots lighten gradually across treatments

Comfort & Downtime
Most clients feel mild warmth or a light snap sensation during treatment. Temporary redness or darkening of spots can appear for a few days—this is normal as pigment clears. Makeup may be worn the next day if skin is calm.
