Photofacials (IPL)

Photofacials improve the appearance of sun damaged and aged skin, as well as reduce spots and redness, resulting in more youthful-looking skin.

What are Photofacials and IPL treatments?

IPL (also known as Photofacials) is a treatment that uses intense pulsed light. The light penetrates the skin at a range of wavelengths that targets red and brown spots so they are great for broken capillaries, rosacea and brown freckling from sun damage.

Photofacials are commonly done on the face, neck, chest, arms, back and legs.

Our Clients Say…

” This is a wonderful find in Vinings (saves the trip in to Buckhead!) The facials are so relaxing and effective and Amber really knows her stuff when it comes to Botox.
The things I most appreciate about this spa is the cleanliness, professionalism and there is no pressure to buy the products (but you want to after you see how effective they can be.)” 
“I have been seeing Dipsy for years. She’s a gem. She doesn’t push products. Recommends what she thinks I need. Stays cognizant of my budget.
I drive all the way from Alpharetta to see her on a regular basis and will continue to do so.”
Just had an amazing massage from Anita!
One of the best I’ve ever had.
Cannot recommend her enough!
Finally! A destination that is on par with my beloved LA spot for injections. I’ll fess up: I have a specific problem area that I dutifully attend to and Dysport is my preference.

I’m still amazed at how smooth the process was. I was able to set up an appointment that accomodated my schedule and Dipsy promptly saw me at my time (not 30+ minutes later). She was professional, friendly and delivered the results I have been seeking! She listened to me and administered the unit# that fit my needs.

Paperwork included, I was in and out in less than 30 mins. This was appreciated because I was on my lunch break. I even had time to grab a coffee after leaving. 

I have had some poor/over priced experiences since moving back, with less than satisfactory results. Radiance has broken this cycle. 

Not to mention, the ambiance is very relaxing. After all, it is a spa, not a clinic or office. No crammed waiting room and frazzled receptionists. 

Breath of fresh air!

I love Radiance Medspa. The zen atmosphere and ambiance of the place is amazing. When you go back, everything is dark and lit by candles and I love that kind of atmosphere! Everyone is very kind and accommodating.
I’ve actually been going there since right after it opened because I’ve lived in Vinings for eight years now.
Amber is my esthetician, and we have spent many years catching up and getting to know each other. I only get waxing there, and I’ve had a facial or two, but I really love going.
The prices are very reasonable for the area, and it’s literally down the street from my house. I’ll continue going there as they do a great job and are awesome all around. Just being in there can lower your blood pressure by ten points!

Love Radiance. I have been coming to Radiance for years for this and that and they are the best. Always accomodating schedule-wise and are terrific with their promotions.

Even though it is tucked away behind a gas station in a strip mall, once you get past the front doors, you will be taken back into their oasis of an office and asked if you’d like tea or water.

April is amazing and so kind and professional. She is like that sister you always hoped would get a nursing degree and go work at a Med Spa so you could benefit. Anyhow, if you need a facial or whatever, you won’t be disappointed.

The Procedure

Your skin will be cleansed and prepped with a serum. Goggles or glasses are worn during the treatment. A fan will be placed near the treatment area to keep your skin cool. Treatments are usually 15 minutes per area.

Use Photofacials To Treat:

  • Broken capillaries (blood vessels)
  • Rosacea Sun damage (sun spots)
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Spider veins
  • Freckles

Treatment & Recovery Time

Heat, swelling and redness are typical for 24 hours but can last for 3 days. The darker brown pigmentation sheds as normal skin cells shed and will clear up on the face in 5 to 10 days and the body 7 to 21 days and results vary from person to person.

Typically photofacials done for redness are repeated every 3 to 6 months and 6 to 12 months for pigmentation issues.

Results can last longer with proper skin care including sunscreen.
