Are There Any Side Effects of IPL?

After an IPL treatment, mild redness, swelling, temporary darkening of pigmentation, and dryness or peeling may occur, but these side effects are typically mild and short-lived. Managing these effects with moisturizers, avoiding sun exposure, and following proper aftercare ensures a smooth recovery. If severe reactions like blisters or persistent discomfort arise, contact your provider immediately. IPL is generally safe, and following aftercare guidelines will help you achieve optimal results.
