Beacon Dermatology offers various treatments to help improve the appearance and health of your skin, including two of Calgary’s most sought-after procedures - Intense Pulsed Light Therapy (IPL) and BBL (Broadband Light Therapy) Forever Young. IPL uses rapid pulses of light to treat pigmentation concerns in the skin, while BBL uses slower, broad pulses of light to treat many skin concerns. Both treatments are forms of IPL that use non-invasive, highly effective light therapy to fight off signs of aging, acne, and unwanted pigmentation.
