What Is Icon Skin Resurfacing?

Icon Skin Resurfacing is a light-based treatment that targets pigment and vascular concerns on the face, chest, hands and other exposed areas. It’s ideal for addressing:

  • Age spots and sun damage
  • Freckles and birthmarks
  • Broken capillaries and spider veins
  • Redness and rosacea

By delivering precise pulses of optimized light, the Icon system targets unwanted pigment and blood vessels while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed. The result is a clearer, smoother and more even complexion.

How Does Icon Skin Resurfacing Work?

The Icon platform uses optimized intense pulsed light (IPL) technology, which differs from lasers by using multiple wavelengths filtered for specific skin concerns.

  • Pigment correction: Dark spots absorb the light energy, causing them to darken temporarily before gradually flaking off as the skin renews itself.
  • Vascular treatment: Blood vessels absorb the light energy, causing them to collapse and fade over time.

Most patients see initial improvement within one to three weeks after treatment, with continued benefits over the following months as the skin regenerates.

The Benefits of Icon Skin Resurfacing

Patients choose Icon Skin Resurfacing in Denver because it offers:

  • Non-invasive treatment with no downtime
  • Quick, comfortable sessions (5–30 minutes)
  • Effective reduction of pigmentation and redness
  • Noticeable improvement in skin tone and texture
  • Minimal discomfort with no need for anesthesia
  • Long-lasting results with proper skin care

What to Expect During Treatment

Your comfort and safety are our priority. Here’s what a typical treatment looks like:

  • A cooling gel is applied to the treatment area.
  • Protective eyewear is provided to shield your eyes from the light.
  • The Icon handpiece is passed over the skin, delivering brief pulses of light. You may feel a slight snapping sensation, similar to a rubber band, followed by a gentle warmth.

Treatment is quick and requires no bandages or dressings afterward.
