broad-spectrum light treatment for skin and hair conditions

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a technology used in various cosmetic and medical treatments, including hair removal, skin rejuvenation, and the treatment of certain skin conditions like rosacea and age spots. It works by emitting a broad spectrum of light that penetrates the skin to target specific pigments or structures, such as hair follicles or blood vessels, without damaging the surrounding tissue.
