IPL Photofacial Treatment in Boston, Wellesley & Lexington

$495

50 Min

Refresh your glow with an IPL photofacial in Boston, Wellesley, or Lexington. This non-invasive treatment combines advanced Sciton BBL technology with the relaxing benefits of a classic facial to reveal brighter, smoother, more even-toned skin.

What to Expect from Your Intense Pulsed Light Facial

Your treatment begins with the relaxing elements of a traditional facial, including gentle exfoliation and massage to soften the skin and boost circulation. This step helps prepare your skin for the next phase of rejuvenation.

We then use Sciton BBL technology to deliver precise pulses of light that target pigment, redness, and uneven tone beneath the skin’s surface. This light-based treatment stimulates collagen production and works to restore brightness, clarity, and firmness.

To complete the experience, a professional-grade CO₂ Lift mask is applied. This mask reduces inflammation, boosts hydration, and supports cellular regeneration—leaving your skin visibly smoother, clearer, and more luminous.

The mask also available for home use to help maintain results between visits.

Benefits of IPL Photofacial Treatment

An IPL photo facial offers visible skin renewal with no downtime, making it a favorite for guests looking to improve skin tone, texture, and overall radiance.

Benefits include:

  • Brightens dull or uneven skin tone for a more luminous complexion
  • Reduces sun damage, redness, and pigmentation caused by UV exposure or inflammation
  • Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and early signs of aging
  • Hydrates and calms the skin with a soothing CO₂ Lift mask
  • Improves skin texture and firmness by stimulating natural collagen production
  • Targets discoloration and vascular irregularities using Sciton BBL light energy
  • Safe for most skin types and requires no recovery time

FAQ

An IPL photofacial, or intense pulsed light treatment, uses broad-spectrum light to target discoloration beneath the skin’s surface. At Bella Santé, it’s paired with gentle exfoliation, massage, and a CO₂ Lift mask, creating a treatment that both corrects and refreshes. The result is clearer, more even-toned skin without downtime.

No downtime is required. Some guests notice mild redness or darkening of spots immediately after, which usually fades within hours to a couple of days.

A traditional facial focuses on surface cleansing, hydration, and relaxation. An IPL photofacial goes deeper, using light energy to correct concerns like pigmentation, redness, and uneven tone, while still including spa elements for comfort.

While many guests see improvement after a single treatment, a series of sessions often delivers the most noticeable, lasting results. Your esthetician will recommend a plan tailored to your skin’s goals.

Yes — IPL Photofacial treatments are clinically proven to improve skin tone, reduce redness, fade sun damage, and minimize the look of fine lines. The technology uses intense pulsed light to target discoloration and stimulate collagen, so results build gradually with each session. Many guests notice brighter, clearer skin after just one treatment, with even greater improvement after a recommended series.

At Bella Santé, a single IPL Photofacial treatment is $495. Many guests choose a series of sessions for the best results, since skin tone and texture continue to improve with each treatment. During your consultation, we’ll create a plan tailored to your skin goals and recommend the right number of treatments.
