The study, recently published in  a recent issue of the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology showed that topical antioxidants had a two fold benefit in helping to improve the desired effect of the IPL and to help ease the side effects of treatment.

The top layer of the dermis was measured to be thicker  in the group who received both antioxidant and IPL therapy.
