IPL touches the second layer of your skin (dermis) without affecting the top layer (epidermis), so it causes less damage to your skin. Pigment cells in your skin absorb the light energy, which is converted into heat. The heat destroys the unwanted pigment to clear up unwanted freckles and other spots. This technique can also destroy the hair follicle to prevent the hair from growing again on the target spots.

10-Microneedling
