If sun spots, redness, or uneven tone are making your skin look older than you feel, you’re not alone. Years of sun exposure, hormonal shifts, and everyday inflammation can show up as blotchiness, brown spots, and a tired-looking complexion. IPL is a light-based face treatment that targets discoloration and visible redness to help your skin look clearer, brighter, and more even.
At Solace Med Spa in Searcy, AR, IPL treatments are guided by Dr. Brad White, MD, a board-certified dermatologist with more than 25 years of experience in skin health. Our entire team focuses on safe, personalized care in a calm environment rooted in comfort and renewal. We proudly offer Alpha Pro IPL as an advanced option within our IPL services.
What Is IPL?
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. It uses controlled pulses of light to target pigment (brown spots) and visible redness in the skin. IPL is often called a “photofacial” because it’s commonly used on the face, but it can also be used on other areas affected by sun exposure.
IPL is often used to address:
- Sun spots and discoloration
- Redness and visible broken capillaries
- Uneven skin tone and blotchiness
- Freckles that have become more noticeable over time
- Dullness caused by uneven pigmentation
What Is Alpha Pro IPL?
Alpha Pro IPL is a modern IPL platform that delivers light-based energy in a precise, controlled way. It’s designed to target pigment and redness while allowing your provider to tailor settings based on your skin type, the concern being treated, and the area of the body.
At Solace Med Spa, Alpha Pro IPL is used as part of a customized plan to help you achieve clearer-looking skin with results that still look natural.

IPL is popular because it can create a visible improvement in tone with minimal downtime.

- Reduced appearance of sun spots and discoloration
- Less visible facial redness and blotchiness
- A clearer, more refreshed complexion
- A smoother-looking “overall finish” to the skin

You may be a good candidate for IPL if you want to improve discoloration or redness and have realistic expectations about gradual improvement.
IPL may be a good fit if you:
- Have sun damage, age spots, or freckles
- Struggle with facial redness or uneven tone
- Want a non-surgical treatment with minimal downtime
- Are committed to sun protection after treatment
