Bandra West, Mumbai
Sun damage, uneven skin tone, stubborn pigmentation, and visible redness are some of the most common skin concerns people deal with, and they can be surprisingly difficult to treat with topical products alone. At Aeon Clinic, Photofacial treatment uses the power of light energy to target these concerns at a deeper level, delivering clearer, more even, and visibly rejuvenated skin.

TechnologyUnderstanding Photofacial
What is a Photofacial?
A Photofacial, also known as Q-Switch Laser Facial, is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that uses broad-spectrum light energy to target pigmentation, redness, and signs of sun damage in the deeper layers of the skin.
Unlike a laser which uses a single wavelength, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths of light, allowing it to address a variety of skin concerns in a single treatment. The light energy is absorbed by the target areas, breaking down pigmentation and reducing redness without affecting the surrounding healthy skin.

Your Questions, Answered
Everything you want to know about
Photofacial.
A regular facial works on the surface of the skin using manual techniques and topical products. A Photofacial uses light energy to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin, targeting pigmentation, sun damage, and redness at their source. It is a medical-grade treatment that delivers results that topical products and regular facials cannot achieve.
There is minimal downtime. Some mild redness for a few hours after the session is normal and settles quickly. Pigmented spots may appear darker for a few days before they naturally flake off and fade. Most people return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment.
Most patients describe the sensation as a mild warmth or a light snapping feeling during the treatment. It is generally well tolerated and does not require any numbing. The cooling gel applied before the session also helps ensure comfort throughout the procedure.
Most patients require a series of 4 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart for optimal results. The exact number of sessions depends on your specific concerns, skin type, and the extent of pigmentation or redness. Your specialist will recommend a personalized treatment plan during consultation.
Yes. Photofacial works very well in combination with other skin treatments such as chemical peels, Medifacials, and medical management for pigmentation. Your specialist will assess your skin and recommend the best combination of treatments to achieve your goals.
