Let There Be Light
While applying SPF daily can push signs of aging years down the road, age spots and sunspots are inevitable. As your skin grows weaker with age, it struggles to fight off common conditions like brown spots, redness, and scarring.
With expert care from Rose Injectables, you can reclaim your clear complexion! Our medical staff is thrilled to offer IPL (intense pulsed light) in Cañon City to rejuvenate your skin from within. By stimulating collagen production and returning your pigmentation levels to “normal”, you can address a range of concerns.

The IPL Process
When you come to Rose Injectables for intense pulsed light in Cañon City, rest assured that the technician performing your treatment is an experienced medical professional. Our on-site medical director will perform a skin assessment and talk through your goals to ensure IPL is right for you.
After getting comfortable in a reclined position, we’ll cleanse and numb the treatment area. Next, we pass the handheld Lumecca device over sections of your face, emitting a range of wavelengths. As the light quickly flashes, you may experience a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping. Your provider will ensure your comfort throughout the 30–minute process, providing additional numbing and cooling agents as needed.
How Intense Pulsed Light Works
Age spots and other patches are your skin’s response to overactive pigment cells. IPL technology uses advanced Lumecca laser technology to target these cells beneath the surface. Your body converts this light energy into heat which damages and eventually kills the affected darkened spots on a microscopic level.
We recommend intense pulsed light in Cañon City to patients struggling with premature aging, persistent acne scars, and rosacea to retrain your skin to combat these issues from within.
Benefits of Intense Pulsed Light
Kill Bacteria at the Source
Intense pulsed light (IPL) technology relies on a precise laser to target problem-causing bacteria, improving your skin’s ability to fight off diseases long-term and reducing related inflammation.
Large Impact With Little Downtime
By boosting your body’s natural collagen and elastin production, IPL effectively treats brown spots, dark spots, and redness/rosacea without the recovery period of surgery.
Buildable Results
IPL improves your skin’s health, rather than mimicking younger skin at the surface. Our on-site physician will work with you to determine which additional treatments will help you reach your goals.

About Rose Injectables
Our owner and on-site medical director, Dr. Knies, moved from emergency medicine to aesthetics when she discovered a gap in her own aesthetic care options. After struggling to find professional help for her skin concerns, she took it upon herself. Soon after, she met ER nurse Chandler who shared her passion for quality aesthetics. Together, they founded Rose Injectables to provide exceptional aesthetic and wellness treatments to Cañon City, Penrose, Lincoln Park, and beyond.
Our Most Common Questions
After treatment, you’ll notice your dark spots deepen in color right away. As your damaged skin cells shed over the next week, you’ll begin to see improvements develop over the following month.
Immediately after undergoing intense pulsed light in Cañon City, your skin may feel slightly warm and appear pink—similar to the effects of a mild sunburn. These side effects will subside within 2 hours, so you’ll be free to return to your day!
