The reason for that is many times we’ll ask patients, do they have a cleanser on, do they have any makeup on, they’ll easy no, or a moisturizer. Today so many women wear a tinted moisturizer or mineral makeup, which can really kind of steal the light and cause a burn, actually. I never trust the patient when they say they don’t have anything on and I don’t think if they’re having a nice photo facial they should go wash themselves. What I do, is I have a wet 4x4 in one hand, and I just have some of my gentle cleanser, and I just go over the face until I see no makeup or anything on the wet side, and then I switch and I dry this side and I wash this side. Just want to make sure I get all the oils off, any residual makeup, tinted moisturizers, sunscreen, powders, anything like that. As women, you know, sometimes we don’t wash our faces as well at night and then this kind of builds up. So this is perfect, I feel good about starting on a fresh clean face now. I’m going to give my patient some Goggles. I really insist that my patient’s wear a metal goggle anytime I’m working on the face, with the actual tightening behind it. The reason for that is IPL scatters and if the patient’s goggles are not on tightly the light can come under the eyes and because it is attracted to red or vascularity it could be attracted to retina vesicles. I like to make sure my patient is comfortable with the goggles, they’re in place and no we’ll get started. You’re going to feel me put a little gel, clear gel, on your face and I do this with a tongue depressor. I just like to paint the face so that it provides cooling to the skin as the IPL works, as well as helps my hand piece move smoothly. Sometimes we use more of a lighter lotion or sometimes we use a heavier gel. What I do is really I depend on how active I want to be. If I want a lot of energy and the patient is very fair skinned I will use a very light lotion as my guide to conduct light. If the patient is a little more tan I want a lot of gel to act as a protective barrier and just kind of slow down my treatment. Now that the gel is applied, I’m going to come over to my light series IPL hand piece. I have a 550-small filter. I’ve got it set for skin type 1 to 2, 15 millisecond pulse duration, 16 joules fluence. When I set the machine up the machine recommended 18 and I’m always just conservative, I like to do 3 pulses a little bit lower and see my tissue response and then work my way up. That’s just the way I have been treating patients for 22 years and I still do it that way. I always just like to start slowly and kind of see where I’m at. We’ve got our machine now in a ready mode. It’s asking me to calibrate, we’re just going to acknowledge. About every 3 to 4 months you need to actually go through the calibration, it’s really just validating the hand piece. Now we’re going to start on her lateral cheek. You’ll notice I didn’t remove her earrings because its IPL. With laser we have to remove anything shiny. With IPL, because it is a diffused light, that is not part of the protocol. I’m going to take my hand piece, put it on the skin. This is going to be my first pulse Beth, you ok? 1, 2 ready. Ok. And I’m going to do one more above it. Now I’m going to wait a minute and I’m going to see my tissue response. What I am looking for with this IPL treatment is for the redness and the brown spots to grab the light. I want to see generalized erythema, which I’m seeing. I don’t want to see the mark of the handpiece, that would be too much energy. If I didn’t see any generalized erythema I would go up. I feel this setting is actually perfect for her. I’m seeing generalized erythema and I’m ready to proceed. Now there are very different patterns you can use when doing IPL. I usually start with my test on the lateral cheek. Always test on the lateral cheeks. When somebody looks at you, if you over treated somebody, you don’t want a big patch right here on your cheek. So always use the lateral cheek, not in a visual axis. Then come over, we overlap 10%, were going to put our hand piece down, hold our elbow up, and here’s our next pulse Beth. 1, overlap 10%, and were just going to kind of go over the whole skin.$
