Zusammenfassung

IPL-Systeme (IPL: ″intense pulsed light″) emittieren Lichtimpulse in einem breiten Spektralbereich des sichtbaren Lichts und im nahen Infrarotbereich. Durch den Einsatz verschiedener optischer Filter kann das Emissionsspektrum so angepasst werden, dass es den speziellen Absorptionsbereichen der beiden Hauptchromophore Hämoglobin und Melanin entspricht. Im Gegensatz zu Lasergeräten können bei den IPL-Systemen auch die Impulsdauern innerhalb eines großen Bereichs angepasst werden. Daher sind IPL-Systeme sehr vielseitig und können für die Behandlung zahlreicher Hauterkrankungen wirksam eingesetzt werden. IPL-Systeme sind in der Regel die Therapie der ersten Wahl bei der Rejuvenation im Gesicht (z. B. diffuse Rötungen, Teleangiektasien und epidermale Pigmentierung). Auch Fältchen können durch die Behandlung mit IPL-Systemen gemindert werden. In Kombination mit einer photodynamischen Therapie (PDT) kann diese Behandlung genauso wirksam sein wie eine fraktionierte Laserbehandlung. Die kombinierte IPL-PDT-Therapie hat sich als besonders effektiv für die Aknebehandlung erwiesen. IPL-Systeme sind inzwischen die am häufigsten eingesetzten Geräte für die Haarentfernung. Ihre Wirksamkeit entspricht annähernd der von Alexandrit- und Diodenlasern.
