IPL in San Antonio, TX

An IPL photofacial is a noninvasive skin rejuvenation treatment designed to target visible sun damage, pigmentation, and uneven tone. Also known as intense pulsed light facial therapy, this procedure uses controlled pulses of light to reach the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and triggering natural healing. At Westover Hills Dermatology in San Antonio, TX, we use the advanced Cutera xeo® laser platform to perform customized IPL skin treatments for the face and neck. This treatment is especially beneficial for those struggling with brown spots, redness, or early signs of aging. Over time, skin appears smoother, brighter, and more evenly toned, making the IPL facial a go-to option for nonsurgical rejuvenation.

Each IPL facial treatment is performed in one of our private rooms and usually takes 20 – 30 minutes, depending on the area being treated. To begin, a team member will cleanse the skin and apply protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the light. Using a handheld device, quick pulses of broad-spectrum light are delivered to the skin. This light energy gently heats the targeted areas, encouraging skin regeneration while minimizing discoloration. Some patients experience mild discomfort, often described as a snapping or warming sensation, but the treatment is well-tolerated and requires no downtime. Results develop gradually as the skin heals and new collagen is produced.

Patients choose IPL treatment for its ability to revitalize the skin with little interruption to daily life. Common benefits include:

  • Smoother, clearer skin with improved tone and texture
  • Fading of sun spots, age spots, and hyperpigmentation
  • Reduced redness and discoloration from past sun exposure
  • Minimal discomfort and no recovery time
  • A refreshed complexion without invasive procedures

The Dermatologist [Dr Opeola or Dr O] and the Nurse Practitioner [Ike] have in-depth knowledge of skin problems. I have had ongoing acne breakouts and spotty blemishes since 12 yrs old and now 67. Since Sept '18 as a patient, my skin is so radiant, smooth, and the acne has been kept under control. I don't need to wear a make-up foundation to cover dark spots anymore. Based on individual issues of patients, Dr. O decides on the best approach. She takes care of skin rashes, biopsies, hair removal (or laser), certain surgeries, and other services. Please look at her website or call the office in order to inquire about what services are available and what healthcare is accepted. Tricare and Medicare is also accepted. She does what she can to advise what is best in order to save you money. One point that needs to be mentioned -- you may need to wait up to 45 minutes beyond your appt time because of her quality care and increase of patients but it is well worth it. One more important fact -- I call her the 'Hollywood' Dermatologist.
