Restore Your Radiance with Advanced IPL & DyeVL Technology
At Instinct Holistic Medical Spa in Bozeman, MT, we offer photofacial treatments designed to safely and effectively correct visible signs of sun damage, dark spots, redness, and uneven skin tone. Using the advanced combination of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and the Alma DyeVL pulsed dye laser, a photofacial gently rejuvenates the skin while stimulating your body’s natural healing response.
What is a Photofacial?
This noninvasive treatment works by delivering targeted pulses of light energy that warm the skin cells, encouraging collagen production and cellular turnover. Over time, your complexion appears brighter, smoother, and more even, with reduced signs of pigmentation and age-related changes.

What to Expect During Treatment
A photofacial at Instinct typically takes 20–30 minutes and is performed in our comfortable treatment rooms. Here’s what you can expect:
-
Consultation – Our aesthetic experts will evaluate your skin concerns, such as sun damage, melasma, redness, or pigmentation, to ensure you’re a good candidate.
-
Preparation – Your skin will be cleansed, and protective eye shields will be provided.
-
Treatment – A handheld device delivers pulses of IPL and DyeVL laser energy across the skin. While you may feel a mild snapping or warming sensation, most clients tolerate the treatment easily.
After your session, it’s normal to experience mild redness or swelling that subsides within hours. Pigmented spots may temporarily darken and then naturally flake off within 2–5 days, revealing clearer, healthier skin.
Results and Recommended Sessions
Most patients notice visible improvements after just one session, though optimal results typically require a series of 3–6 treatments spaced about a month apart. With each treatment, collagen production and pigment correction continue to improve, creating lasting rejuvenation.
Aftercare & Skin Protection
To maximize your results:
-
Always apply broad-spectrum SPF daily.
-
Avoid picking or scratching treated skin as it flakes.
-
Use gentle, barrier-supportive skincare recommended by our team.
-
Consider pairing your photofacial with other treatments for enhanced results, such as light chemical peels, microneedling, or hydrating facials.
