Photorejuvenation

Learn More

At Luxe Eye and Wellness, we use advanced digital retinal imaging to evaluate the health of your eyes without the need for traditional dilation drops. Our optometry office in Old Town Alexandria offers Optomap wide angle retinal imaging, which captures a detailed view of the retina in seconds. This technology allows our doctors to screen for retinal conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal tears while minimizing discomfort and avoiding the side effects of dilation. The imaging process lets patients see the back of their eyes just as the doctor does and is safe for children, adults, and pregnant patients seeking comprehensive eye exams in Alexandria VA.

Why Photorejuvenation?

Photorejuvenation is a fast, gentle treatment that improves:

  • Pigmentation
  • Age/sun spots
  • Broken capillaries
  • Overall skin appearance by boosting collagen and elastin production.

What to Expect:

The treatment targets imperfections and stimulates collagen production over multiple sessions. Results for light pigmentation and sun spots can appear in 1-2 treatments, while most concerns may need 2-6 sessions, spaced 2-4 weeks apart.

Post-Treatment:

You may experience some redness that usually fades within hours. Makeup can be applied right after, and normal activities can resume. Avoid direct sun for a few weeks and use sunscreen as advised.

What is IPL?

Intense Pulsed Light technology is used to treat age spots, freckles, rosacea, and broken capillaries by targeting skin imperfections and stimulating collagen for clearer, smoother skin.

Is It Right for Me?

Not suitable for individuals with active infections, inflammatory skin conditions, or skin cancer. Possible risks include redness, swelling, scarring, or pigmentation changes. Consult with your provider to ensure it's appropriate for you.

​​​​​​​How It Works:

The IPL technology targets pigmentation and vascular issues, improving skin tone and texture. The controlled heat stimulates collagen production while the body naturally removes treated tissue, enhancing overall skin appearance. The procedure typically lasts 15-30 minutes and is well-tolerated with minimal discomfort.
