Before treatment:
Using correct IPL spectrum to clinical object, a light energy beamed to skin in non-invasive way.

While on treatment:
Light energy transformed to heat energy. Chromophore on target tissue such as hemoglobin will react to that heat.

After treatment:
Fragment the target and then absorbed without damaging surrounding tissue. Make skin surface smoother and looks younger.
