What is IPL Skin Rejuvenation?
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. The IPL system regenerates the skin by heating the cells known as collagen within the skin so to regenerate cells and tissue to improve your complexion, skin texture and tension. The series of treatments stimulate the increase of the production of collagen over a period of time to increases the elasticity, skin thickness, smoothness, wrinkle reduction and resurfaces the top surface.

What kind of Skin problems can be treated?
Sun damaged Skin: Rejuvenation and resurfacing of the skin as a result of sun damage and can be corrected and dramatically improved with compliance to the treatment regime and refraining from intense sun exposure. Skin damaged by the sun is treated by IPL to stimulate the healing and regenerative properties of collagen and elastin below the skin surface.

Facial Redness, flushing or a condition known as Rosacea can be treated effectively by IPL and the YAG treatment head. The redness is significantly reduced or ceased leaving you with a face that you want to show with embarrassment.

Rosacea: Broken veins or capillaries on the skin surface or just below can cause embarrassment and require camouflage makeup. Our range of treatments can be used to break down the vessel walls and reduce the visible effect of the blemishes on the skin surface. The IPL treatment can be used on all areas of the body where broken vein, thread veins and capillary redness are visible and problematic.

Age Spots & Melasma: Brown age spots or discoloured skin pigmentation can be reduced to reveal a younger more even skin tone to improve your visual image and confidence.

Hyper or Hypo Pigmentation: as a result of various causes can be reduced and corrected by using IPL in combination with other dermatological products if required.

Freckles: Can be significantly reduced and a clearer complexion revealed.

Does it hurt?
As the controlled intense pulsed light passes in to the skin the most regular description is on of feeling a very slight ping like a hot elastic band on the skin surface. The patch test will help you understand the treatment and feel your own sensation.

What are the Side Effects?
Side effects are rare.
Slight reddening and swelling of the treated area may occur after treatment but usually goes away within hours.
Blistering or bruising is very rare.
Hyper / hypo pigmentation. In rare occasions the skin around the treated area may become temporarily darker or lighter but is usually returns back to normal very quickly.
This is why it is vital to undergo a full pre assessment to ensure that your skin type is fully assessed and to be honest about medical history.
