Spa Renaissance is proud to offer advanced skin rejuvenation treatments to patients throughout the Detroit Metropolitan area. Intense pulsed light therapy, or IPL photorejuvenation, is one of our most sought-after medspa services due to its ability to address a wide range of skin concerns, from sun damage and age spots, to rosacea and fine lines.
What Is IPL Photorejuvenation?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) photorejuvenation is an in-office treatment that uses high-intensity pulses of light to improve the appearance of the skin. This advanced technology can be used to target various skin imperfections, including photodamage, hyperpigmentation, and broken blood vessels. Our providers also frequently recommend IPL for wrinkle reduction.
The procedure works by stimulating collagen production and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells. IPL photorejuvenation is suitable for the face, neck, hands, and chest.
Who Is a Candidate for IPL Photorejuvenation?
Ideal candidates for IPL photorejuvenation are individuals with light to medium skin tones who wish to resolve issues such as:
• Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
• Age spots and freckles
• Redness and rosacea
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin texture
A member of our highly qualified team of aesthetics experts can determine if IPL is the best treatment option for you during your consultation.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
To begin, your skin will be cleansed, and a gel will be applied to the treatment site. You will be given protective eyewear to shield your eyes for the duration of the treatment.
A handheld device will be used to deliver precise pulses of light to the targeted area(s). You may feel a slight stinging sensation, similar to a rubber band snap.
An IPL photofacial session typically lasts between 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
What to Expect After IPL Photorejuvenation
Post-treatment, you may experience mild redness and swelling for as little as a few hours or up to a couple of days. To promote expedient improvements, you will need to follow the aftercare instructions we provide, which will advise you regarding:
• The use of a gentle moisturizer and a quality sunscreen
• The avoidance of direct sun exposure for at least a week
• Refraining from using harsh skincare products for a few days
How Long Until I See Results?
Many patients start to see improvements in their skin within a week after the first session. Optimal results are typically achieved after a series of three to five treatments, spaced about four weeks apart.
How Long Do Results Last?
The longevity of your IPL photorejuvenation results will depend on several factors, including your skin type, the nature and severity of the skin concerns being treated, and your post-treatment care. Generally, the effects can last for several months to a few years.
How Much Does IPL Photorejuvenation Cost?
The cost of your treatment will reflect the specifics of your personalized treatment plan. You will be given completing pricing information during your consultation.

Patient Testimonials
This was the best decision I have ever made. I met with Dr. Stefani and hired him & received a full mommy makeover. I had met with several doctors as well, as this was a big decision to make. Dr. Stefani made me feel the most comfortable and he has a great bedside manner. Also, to be completely honest after surgery …He exceeded my expectations. I almost cried after I saw what I looked like after surgery. I had 3 c sections prior and nothing was ever the same after that. I feel better than I did before kids and I wish I did this sooner. If you are even slightly hesitant …don’t be! Dr. Stefani is AMAZING.
Dr. Williams is one of the most caring and talented doctors I have ever met! I was diagnosed with breast CA 2 years ago and was referred to him for reconstruction after choosing to do a bilateral mastectomy. Boy was I scared !! He put me at ease right away with great information on what to expect along and seemed to generally care about me even though we had just met! I knew I was in the best hands! Now after 2 years, not to sound weird, I get compliments on my "new" breasts all the time, even my family Dr gave them a big WOW! Cherry on top, he did a Tummy tuck on me to even out new look, and also get compliments all the time!
Dr. Miguel is the absolute best!! I've had rhinoplasty in the past with another surgeon, and I came in for a consultation with Dr. Miguel for an alar base reduction (narrowing of nostrils). He was so honest with his answer, and he told me it was not needed. He said the procedure was unnecessary, and to leave my nose just the way it is. He told me all the things that could go wrong if I were to go forward with this procedure. I am so grateful for his honesty, and I appreciate his conservative approach. If you are looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon and want honest feedback with natural results, please consult with Dr. Miguel.
