IPL (INTENSE PULSE LIGHT) SKIN REJUVENATION/PIGMENTATION/CAPILLARIES

As the population ages, ever increasing numbers of people are interested in improving their appearance. We are all born with beautiful skin, unfortunately many of us ruin our skin with exposure to UV rays from the sun and other environmental toxins such as smoking, excessive alcohol and drugs.

IPL skin rejuvenation works by a broad spectrum light that penetrates the tissue and is absorbed by either blood (vascular lesions/broken capillaries) or melanin (freckles) and denatures (damages) it. The body’s natural processes will then remove the injured tissue, leaving the skin with a more even tone and youthful looking appearance.

What can IPL treat?

IPL photorejuvenation improves the appearance of photo aged skin, it will remove age spots (sun-induced freckles), most benign brown spots, redness caused by vascular lesions (capillaries), and reduces pore size while stimulating collagen and elastin fibres.

You may feel a slight sting similar to that of a small elastic band to the treated area during the treatment.

How Many treatments are needed?

To achieve maximum results, a series of 3 – 6 treatments are recommended, depending on skin condition, at 4 – 6 week intervals. You may require IPL to be used in conjunction with other treatments for ideal results.

What to expect post treatment?

Post treatment you may feel flushed and appear red, similar to that of an exercise workout. Brown age spots (pigmentation) will darken, as will vascular lesions (capillaries). This will clear anywhere from 3 to 10 days leaving the skin more even, refined and glowing.

IPL can be used to treat the face, neck, chest, hands and most other parts of the body. This is an ideal treatment for those with a more active lifestyle as the procedure requires minimal downtime with a low risk of side effects.

We ask that you have no sun exposure or the use of fake/chemical tans to the area to be treated during the course of IPL treatment.
