How many sessions of photorejuvenation are effective?

Generally, photorejuvenation works by applying intense pulsed light to the skin tissue, restoring skin elasticity, minimizing pores, and brightening the complexion. The typical reference price for a photorejuvenation session ranges from 3000 to 6000 yuan, and improvements are usually noticeable after one to two weeks. The required number of effective photorejuvenation sessions is not fixed, primarily depending on the type and severity of the skin concern, as well as the individual's skin repair capacity. A detailed analysis is as follows:

For mild skin tone unevenness, fine dry lines, or superficial sunspots, significant improvement is typically observed after 3–4 treatments, with enhanced skin luster and a finer texture. For more persistent issues such as freckles, telangiectasia (dilated capillaries), or moderate photoaging, 5–6 sessions or more may be necessary to gradually fade pigmentation, improve vascular conditions, and stabilize overall skin condition.

The usual treatment interval is 3–4 weeks, allowing the skin to complete the repair process after prior light stimulation, thereby enabling the cumulative effect of subsequent treatments. Additionally, individual differences affect the number of sessions required: those with faster skin metabolism and who consistently practice sun protection and moisturization may achieve more noticeable results with fewer sessions. Conversely, inadequate post-treatment sun protection or weaker skin repair ability may necessitate additional sessions to consolidate the therapeutic effects.

Photorejuvenation should be performed as a course of treatment. The specific number of sessions must be determined by a physician following a skin assessment. Combined with post-treatment moisturizing and sun protection measures, the effectiveness of skin improvement can be significantly enhanced.
