Overview: One obvious benefit of intense pulsed light (IPL) systems is that the user is given access to a broad wavelength output available from the flash-lamp. Most systems produced today, by various manufacturers, use a xenon arc lamp as a light source. The normal, unfiltered output of a xenon lamp at typical application levels is between 370 and 1800 nm. Selecting portions of the output spectra to better target specific chromophores in the skin can be accomplished through several methods, of which filtering the output of the xenon lamp is the most commonly used. There are two primary methods of filtering this output: diachronic mirror filtration and absorption filtration.
