IPL

With the help of this cutting-edge aesthetics laser, our medical professionals can safely and effectively resolve specific skin issues.
Intense pulsed light is quite effective in improving a broad range of conditions in the skin, including unwanted discoloration. However, some visible spots on the skin could be signs of abnormal cell growth under the skin. It is essential to choose the right practitioner when considering an IPL treatment because, while intense pulsed light can mask the critical visible signs of this health risk, it does not affect abnormal cell growth occurring under the skin, and could put the patient at increased risk for more advanced stages of possible cancerous or precancerous lesions.

How does IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment work?
An IPL treatment delivers a broad spectrum of light, which may be adjusted to particular wavelengths, into the layers of the skin. The Intense pulsed light is absorbed by chromophores, or areas of concentrated pigment, creating a thermal injury, either breaking up the deposited pigment or cauterizing capillaries. Delivered to the deeper layers of the skin, this thermal heat causes the contraction of collagen fibers and stimulates new collagen growth that may persist for up to 6 months after an IPL treatment.

What Our
Clients Say
Since my first visit to Bellatudo Skin and Wellness Center, I have always felt friendly. The general environment is quite relaxing, and the people are very pleasant. Dr. Cho is a professional; she listened to me and recommended the right treatment for my skin type. The facial helped me to relieve stress, and my skin looked radiant for several days after the treatment. I can only say that I wish everyone could experience it to have at least once an idea of what it is like to be in this place.
The last thing I considered was trying cosmetic treatments, but when I met Dr.Cho, I felt very comfortable. I asked her several questions, and she made sure to expound on each procedure that was followed. The effects of Botox were great! I looked fresh as if I had not been treated with freezing at all. This was efficient, and I love the kind of attention I was given, and I’m excited about the next time I have to come back.
I always didn’t believe that skin treatments could work, at least that’s what I thought until I tried the chemical peel service at Bellatudo. Dr. Cho carefully examined my skin and designed a treatment course; nothing ever went wrong. And after the first treatment, one can observe the positive effects – skin becomes smoother and receives more brightness. This aftercare advice was also quite appropriate to help me sustain these results. I wasn’t limited in my choice, and the atmosphere was very relaxing, so I will go back for more treatments.
I have had acne scars for as long as I can remember, and I decided to go to Bellatudo for assistance this time. Dr.Cho was very kind and knowledgeable. She suggested that I undergo a series of microneedling treatments, and honestly, I am glad I had done that. Most scars have disappeared, and I feel much more assured now. The whole team was friendly and helpful during these visits, which made them a joy to be around. I must say, I was glad to see that I highly recommend this center!

I came in wanting to fix my left upper eyelid since it had a droopy appearance compared to my right. I've always wanted to correct it but wanted a noninvasive alternative to a blepharoplasty. Dr. Cho recommended I do plexr for my upper lid. The procedure itself was painful but tolerable despite them using topical anesthetics. The pain was worth it because I noticed a significant improvement after the scabs and swelling subsided. I highly recommend Dr. Cho! She is very meticulous and it's obvious that she cares for her patients. She made sure to check on my healing progress everyday and was available anytime to text if I had any questions. I've had an amazing experience with Bellatudo and I can't recommend it enough!

Wow Dr. Cho is amazing! I found her office on yelp because all of the fantastic reviews and they were right! I wanted to find an office that can remove my light facial moles and some hyperpigmentation. I was able to easily book the consultation online and the appointment was confirmed. Once I arrived Dr. Cho greeted me and we discussed what I wanted to get done. She explained the whole process and got to it. I was in and out within 30 minutes and booked a future appointment. Free parking and they take Apple Pay. This place is amazing! A hidden gem!

I've been coming to Bellatudo for my med spa services for 1.5 years now and my experiences have always been very positive. Dr. Cho and the nurses and staff are friendly and professional. They go above and beyond to ensure the quality of care is top notch. Dr. Cho listens to my wants while recommending her professional options to make sure I get what's right for me. I've done their facial laser treatments, and injectables. 100 percent satisfaction every visit. A hands on med spa where you get the one on one time and not just a number in their patient roster. Best personalized care and treatment!
