Many people think of IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) as a face-only treatment — a way to brighten complexion, fade sun spots, and reduce redness. But sun exposure does not stop at the jawline, and neither should skin rejuvenation. The neck, chest, and hands often show signs of aging even earlier than the face, making them key areas to treat if you want a truly youthful, even appearance.

If you are new to IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments, it is normal to feel curious — and even a little unsure — about what to expect. The good news is IPL is one of the most comfortable and efficient skin treatments available, and the experience is designed to feel smooth, controlled, and reassuring from start to finish.

When it comes to treating discoloration, sun damage, and uneven skin tone, two of the most popular options are chemical peels and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy. Both aim to brighten and even out your complexion — but they work in very different ways.

If you have melasma and have been researching treatments, you’ve probably seen mixed opinions about IPL. Some people say it helped lighten their pigmentation, and others say it made it darker. The truth is not that IPL is “bad” for melasma — it is that melasma requires careful medical judgment, and the wrong approach can trigger a flare.

Persistent facial redness, easy flushing, and visible tiny blood vessels can feel frustrating and difficult to control. Many people try soothing creams, prescription gels, or drugstore anti-redness products, yet still feel like the redness always comes back. That is because rosacea is not only a surface-level condition. It has a vascular component — and topical products alone cannot treat the blood vessels causing the redness.

If you are noticing new freckles, brown spots, or redness after years in the sun, you are not alone. Sun damage is one of the most common concerns we treat at Core Aesthetic, and IPL is one of the most effective ways to reverse it. But is it permanent? Let’s break it down clearly and realistically.

If you have sunspots, redness, or uneven tone, you’ve probably seen terms like IPL, BBL, and laser everywhere. They all promise clearer skin, so it’s easy to wonder: What’s the difference, and which one will actually work best?

If you’re ready to experience smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin with a CoolPeel® CO₂ laser treatment, your results start long before you step into the treatment room. The secret to a flawless outcome is all in the prep.

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes acne-like bumps or skin thickening. It commonly appears on the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin, and can also cause eye irritation in some cases (ocular rosacea). While the exact cause isn’t fully understood, triggers often include sun exposure, spicy foods, alcohol, hot beverages, stress, and extreme temperatures. Rosacea tends to flare up in cycles, and although there’s no cure, it can be effectively managed with gentle skincare, prescription treatments, laser therapy, and lifestyle adjustments. Early diagnosis and consistent care are key to keeping symptoms under control and preventing progression.

Seborrheic Dermatitis is a common skin condition that causes red, flaky, and sometimes itchy patches—typically on the scalp, face, and areas with excess oil production. While it's chronic and can flare up with stress or weather changes, it’s manageable with the right skincare and treatment. At Core Aesthetic, we offer customized solutions to soothe irritation, reduce flaking, and help restore healthy, balanced skin.
