At Viva Med Spa & Wellness, we use IPL and LaseMD Ultra treatments to address sun spots and improve skin tone. IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) targets pigmentation irregularities by delivering light energy to break down melanin. LaseMD Ultra is a non-ablative fractional laser that stimulates cell turnover and enhances skin clarity. These treatments are best for patients seeking effective, noticeable results with minimal downtime.

After Treatment
We recommend a series of 3-4 IPL or LaseMD Ultra treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart to help achieve the most ideal results. Many patients notice improvements within 1-2 weeks after the first session, with continued enhancement over the course of multiple treatments. Ongoing maintenance treatments every 6-12 months and daily sun protection are essential to maintain clear, even-toned skin.
IPL and LaseMD Ultra treatments help fade sun spots gradually, with initial improvements visible as early as 1-2 weeks. As the skin renews itself, pigmentation fades, leaving a more even complexion. Patients experience a significant reduction in discoloration and improved skin clarity with multiple sessions.
