As Vancouver enters the fall-winter season, many residents are seeking ways to address skin concerns accumulated during summer. Dr. Roz Kamani, a medical aesthetics expert at Kitsilano Medical Aesthetics, recommends this time of year as ideal for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments, particularly the Lumecca system. The cooler months provide lower UV exposure, which reduces the risk of post-treatment complications such as hyperpigmentation and allows the skin to heal more effectively.
According to Dr. Kamani, patients often notice increased redness, fine lines, sunspots, and uneven texture after summer sun exposure. Fall-winter presents an opportunity for a skin reset. The clinic offers Lumecca IPL, a technology from InMode that delivers up to three times more energy than traditional IPL devices, enabling deeper penetration and more efficient targeting of pigment and vascular lesions. Key differences include higher power output, fewer required sessions (typically 1-2 versus 4-6), deeper penetration for conditions like sun damage and rosacea, and greater comfort due to a sapphire tip cooling system.
Dr. Kamani suggests beginning IPL sessions in the fall when sun damage becomes more visible and exposure decreases. This timing helps prevent hyperpigmentation and supports skin rejuvenation. For those looking to reduce reliance on makeup and address summer-related damage, IPL laser in Vancouver offers a powerful solution. Patients can book sessions by calling 604.222.9998 or emailing info@RozKamani.com.
