As summer winds down in Marietta, GA, many residents are left with an unwelcome souvenir: sun-damaged skin. Whether it’s freckles that multiplied, uneven skin tone, or new dark spots that weren’t there before, the sun can leave its mark in more ways than one. The good news? You don’t have to live with it.

At Kayal Dermatology & Skin Cancer Specialists, we offer Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial treatments—a safe, non-ablative, and highly effective solution for reducing visible signs of sun damage while restoring a healthier, more youthful appearance.

A Smarter Way to Reverse Sun Damage

Unlike ablative laser treatments that remove layers of skin and often require significant downtime, IPL Photofacials are non-ablative. That means they target pigment irregularities below the surface of the skin without damaging the top layer. This results in smoother skin tone, reduced redness, and fading of brown spots, all without interrupting your daily routine.

Using broad-spectrum light energy, IPL gently heats the dermis, stimulating collagen production and breaking up areas of pigment caused by years of sun exposure. It’s particularly effective for treating:

  • Sun spots and age spots
  • Freckles
  • Uneven pigmentation
  • Rosacea and facial redness
  • Visible capillaries and blood vessels
  • Dull, tired-looking skin
  • Acne or other scars

And it’s not just for the face. IPL can be used on the neck, chest, shoulders, and hands—anywhere sun damage has made an appearance.

Treatment Plan: What to Expect

At Kayal Dermatology in Marietta, we typically recommend a series of five IPL sessions, spaced approximately three weeks apart. Each session takes about 30 minutes, and most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure. A mild sunburn-like sensation is common post-treatment, but this usually resolves within a day.

Over time, dark spots flake off, redness fades, and your skin begins to look brighter, smoother, and more youthful. Results build gradually, with most patients seeing significant improvement after the second or third treatment.

Quick facts:

  • IPL is FDA-cleared and clinically proven for skin rejuvenation
  • Over 90% of patients report satisfaction with IPL for pigment correction
  • No downtime – you can resume normal activities immediately
  • Safe for most skin types, especially lighter complexions prone to sun damage

Our Patient Reviews

First time ever at a dermatology office! So I was a little nervous... But they have a very friendly staff and it was nice meeting PA Joel! Felt comfortable and he was informative & made me feel like I wasn’t the only person dealing with my issue. I can’t wait to see some results and get some relief!!

Eve L.

Love this place! Everyone is so caring, and very helpful in each way possible. Highly recommend this place for skin care and even skin cancer!

Detlef K.

I’ve been going here awhile. I’ve got a few pesky issues, some due to my not allowing areas to completely heal, sins that prolongs my already glacier like speed healing! I really appreciate Dr. Kayal and Joel who combine to take of me and my family.

Michael V.

Was greeted upon my arrival, very nice waiting room, was taken back immediately. Very professional, caring and friendly staff. They want to help you. The PA Joel was very knowledgeable and knew exactly how to help me. I was given a prescription to address the problem. Will be back with other issues, keep up the good work.

Lisa W.

PA Brown is very attentive to my son's needs. I have not had any difficulty getting appointments when needed. I think this practice provides excellent service. I definitely recommend Kayal Dermatology for all of your skin needs.
