Dye-VL Photofacials in Lumberton, TX

At Boudreaux Dental Group, we offer Dye-VL Photofacials—a powerful yet gentle treatment that targets uneven pigmentation, redness, and sun damage to reveal smoother, more radiant skin. Using the Alma Harmony laser platform, this advanced light-based therapy can restore clarity to your complexion with minimal discomfort and virtually no downtime. If you’re bothered by discoloration, age spots, or visible veins, a photofacial may be just what your skin needs to glow again.
What Is a Dye-VL Photofacial?
Dye-VL (Dye-Visible Light) is a form of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy that delivers targeted bursts of light energy to the skin. It’s particularly effective at treating vascular and pigmented lesions by gently heating and breaking down the unwanted pigment or blood vessels beneath the skin’s surface.
This treatment can dramatically improve:
- Sun damage and age spots
- Redness and facial veins
- Rosacea and broken capillaries
- Uneven tone and blotchy skin
- Brown spots and freckles
The Alma Harmony’s Dye-VL handpiece offers more precision than traditional IPL devices, allowing for safer and more effective treatment with minimal irritation.
How Does It Work?
During your session, we’ll cleanse your skin and apply a cool gel before passing the Dye-VL handpiece over the treatment area. The device emits short bursts of light that penetrate the skin to target melanin (pigment) or hemoglobin (in blood vessels)—effectively treating discoloration without damaging surrounding tissue.
Most sessions take about 30 minutes, and the procedure is well-tolerated with little to no downtime. Some patients experience mild redness or darkening of pigment for a few days, followed by clearer, more even-toned skin.
For best results, we typically recommend a series of 3–4 treatments, spaced about a month apart.

Have light to medium skin tones
Want to reduce sun spots, redness, or visible veins
Are looking for a non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment
Want clearer, brighter, and more even skin
