Pigment in a sun spot and hemoglobin in a small vessel take in light differently from the skin around them. With the right wavelength and pulse length, light can warm the target while leaving its surroundings largely undisturbed. This principle, selective photothermolysis, was described in 1983 and still guides how lasers and IPL are set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIPL filters\u003c\/strong\u003e cut off shorter wavelengths so the light suits your concern and your skin tone.
