RevitalEyes Med Spa is proud to include Icon IPL among our arsenal of beauty promoting products and dry eye treatments. Book a consultation to see what Icon IPL could do for you.
Icon IPL for Dry Eye Management
Icon IPL has been effective in reducing irritation from dry eye disease.
Dry eye disease is caused by an interruption in the tears. The oily, top layer of tears is made in the meibomian glands, and dry eyes are often the result when these are plugged.
The light produced by the Icon IPL system gently warms the glands, eliminating blockages and allowing the right amount of oil to coat the eye’s surface.
Reveal Stunning Skin With Icon IPL
Icon IPL has been used in skin rejuvenation to reduce the appearance of dark spots and wrinkles, revealing your natural beauty.
Intense pulsed light (IPL) is designed to use multiple gentle wavelengths of light to penetrate down to the second layer of the skin without damaging the top layer. Cells in your skin convert the light to heat, which helps stimulate healing of pigmented areas, including:
- Age spots
- Sun damage
- Varicose veins
- Damaged blood vessels
- Rosacea
Icon IPL is also effective in reducing the appearance of undesired body hair. The handheld device allows our aestheticians to target specific areas more accurately.
The IPL Treatment Process
Know what to expect before you book your appointment! We’ve broken down the treatment steps for you here.
Before
If you’re interested in Icon IPL, come in for a consultation. We’ll discuss your expectations from IPL, your medical history, and any other relevant information. If you’re a good IPL candidate, you’ll be sent home with preparation instructions, including:
- Avoid tanning
- Avoid excessive sun exposure
- Avoid waxing
- Avoid chemical peels
- Avoid collagen injections
During
Avoid applying sunscreen, lotions, or deodorant to the treatment area on the day of your appointment. We may apply a cooling gel to the treatment area right before the IPL process begins.
As your practitioner applies the IPL device to your skin, you may feel a slight pinching sensation, similar to having an elastic band snapped on your skin.
After
There’s some recovery time with IPL treatment. In the hours following your visit, you may have a red or pink sunburn-like appearance on the treatment area, and it may sting. Applying an ice pack may help with this feeling and any slight swelling that may occur.
Protect your skin with sunscreen in the weeks following your treatment. It may require several treatment sessions to achieve your desired results.

Our Testimonials
Dr. Peacock was instrumental in advising an IPL treatment plan to help me with my dry eye. It has helped improve my dry eye symptoms tremendously. The bonus was it helped so much with the appearance of my skin. I’m so happy this treatment is available to help other people in our small community.
Judy Wilson, Alliston
I am currently receiving IPL therapy for my dry eyes post lens implant. I’ve already noticed an improvement after just one treatment. I am looking forward to my second treatment. Danielle & Sandy are very knowledgeable and supportive in providing my IPL treatments.

I broke the frame on my glasses which I need to be able to see the computer screen for work. They got me in for an appointment the next morning and I got a new prescription, found new frames, and got my new glasses ordered in an hour. I still needed a solution for the next 10 days until new glasses came in. They were able to find an inexpensive frame in the store that my current lens fit with a little shaving. I was back at work and able to see the computer screen that afternoon. Wonderful!
Sharon P., Alliston
I was very pleased with the whole setup from the point of entry. The whole COVID thing aside! Everything was explained to me every step of the way. From checking my eyes, puff of air, pictures through to the testing. I’ll definitely be back for my next testing in two years. I learned things about my eyes I never knew. Glad I came here. Live and learn at its finest! Thank you Dr.Peacock and Associates.

The characteristics that demonstrate best practice customer service were all in evidence: friendly atmosphere, competent knowledgeable staff, technical capabilities, responsiveness, efficiency. It also helped that the new clinic is bright, open and welcoming, incorporating both an appropriate level of privacy and a free-flowing movement of clients and staff. It was beneficial to see prior staff, I almost said old, and new faces.
Long-Time Patient, Alliston

Thank you for your positive attitude, and for the smiles that can be felt with the heart, even though we can not see them through the masks. Thank you for your always cheery welcome, and for always caring. Thank you for keeping all of us safe, with the implementation of sanitation measures, and for everything you do during these trying and uncertain times.

Stay well, stay safe!
Sincerely,

Even in these difficult times the staff and service are top notch. Professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. I admit that I tried to cheap out, but quickly realized that the products, knowledgeable people and impeccable service cannot be substituted. They have been taking care of my whole family for 15 years. So grateful to have you. Many, many thanks. My new Rx Sunglasses are perfect. The guidance to go that route was from the expertise given. Thanks NTOC.

I have been going here since they opened and i have always enjoyed great service from both the doctors and staff. I have been seeing Dr. Clarke for the past few years and he has been very helpful, explaining my particular case in terms I can understand. I highly recommend NTOC for anyone looking for an optometrist.

I started going to Dr Amarnath in 2013 & was so glad to have found him. He is an amazing, professional, kind & caring, and very knowledgeable doctor who really cares about your well being. I have suffered for years with dry eyes which has also caused me many headaches. The burning in my eyes was totally taking over my life. He introduced me to Intense Pulsed Light Therapy.
After having four treatments I have had a year of my eyes feeling the most comfortable they have felt in years. I just had one maintenance treatment this week & am looking forward to another awesome year.
The girls that run the Revital Eyes Med Spa are really wonderful. They are so kind, thoughtful, caring & very professional who take the time to answer any questions & concerns you may have.

I came to see Dr. Peacock roughly 8 years ago. I have had an issue with very dry eyes ( burning, blurriness, itchiness and sensitivity to sunlight) since my 30’s. I went to countless doctors trying many different medications with no success. I got to the point where it was so uncomfortable for me to go outside for extended periods of time in the summer months so I could never go on a holiday. Back in the 80’s I lost my eyesight for 6 weeks from a new medication for my Lupus condition. At that time I went back and forth to an eye specialist every other day trying every medication to get my eyesight back. Following that experience I tried blood serum drops and it was working but nothing was ever helping with the dryness. That’s when I found Dr. Peacock, he recommended the IPL therapy for me. After having this series of treatments I could read a book, sit out in the garden, hand quilting and do arts and crafts projects. I haven’t been able to do any of these things for years. I now thank Dr. Peacock and all the wonderful staff with all my heart.
