How to Choose an IPL Device
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) systems are non-laser, broadband xenon flashlamp devices that emit polychromatic light filtered to target chromophores in the skin for hair reduction, photofacial/pigmented and vascular lesion treatment, acne, and—since FDA's 2021 De Novo classification—meibomian gland dysfunction-related dry eye. Buyers are typically dermatology and ophthalmology practices, medical spas, plastic surgery clinics, and ASCs adding aesthetic service lines. Since the FDA's approval of the first IPL device in 1995, continuous innovation has expanded its clinical applications, making it a safe and effective option for various pigmented and vascular disorders, hair removal, and addressing signs of photoaging, with devices using flashlamps and bandpass filters to generate pulsed light with varying wavelengths, durations, and fluences.
