Dye-VL intense pulsed light that clears sun spots, redness, and broken capillaries.

Sun spots, flushing, and the little broken capillaries that never quite fade — a photofacial clears them by targeting the pigment and vessels underneath in a single treatment. At Vue we lead with Dye-VL on the Alma Harmony XL Pro, which combines pulsed-dye and IPL technology to treat both brown pigment and redness at once, with little to no downtime.
Common areas: face, neck, chest, hands, and arms. Prefer a Cutera-based option? We also offer a LimeLight photofacial on the Xeo — your provider recommends the right fit at your consultation.
Most patients describe the pulses as a warm rubber-band snap. Brown spots often look darker for the first few days — a sign it's working — then lift and flake away over about 7–14 days, while redness settles over the same window. Most skin does best with a series of about three treatments spaced roughly four weeks apart. Sun protection before and after is essential, and we'll walk you through it.
Priced by area — full or half face, neck, chest, hands, face and neck, face with neck and chest, or an individual spot treatment — with a series of three available for the full-face photofacial. LimeLight full face is also offered. Appointments run 30–90 minutes depending on the area. Pricing is confirmed at your consultation.
IPL is best suited to lighter-to-medium skin tones and isn't right for every complexion. We assess your skin first and will recommend a gentler, all-tone option like Laser Genesis if IPL isn't the safe choice for you.
Most people compare it to a warm rubber-band snap. No numbing is usually needed, and a cooling step keeps you comfortable.
That's expected — the pigment rises to the surface (patients often call it a coffee-ground look) and then sheds over one to two weeks. It's the treatment working.
Most skin does best with a series of about three, spaced roughly four weeks apart, with maintenance as needed.
IPL suits lighter-to-medium skin tones and isn't right for every complexion. We assess your skin first and recommend an alternative like Laser Genesis when IPL isn't the safe choice.
A photofacial targets pigment and vessels (spots and redness). Laser Genesis is a gentler, all-tone treatment focused on redness, pores, and glow. Many patients do both.
With a recent tan or sunburn, or certain medications — we'll review your history and timing at the consult.
