IPL Treatments
Safe and effective, suitable for both men and women. More than one session may be needed for effective results and varies depending on which treatment is undertaken.
IPL works best at removing hair when it’s in the active growth phase. But not all the hair in the treatment area will be in this phase at any given time. So we spread our IPL treatments out over a period of time. This is to make sure that hair which isn’t treated in one session is affected in the next. The way hair grows is slightly different for everyone, so we tailor our treatment to suit you.
Laser IPL Treatments remove:
- Unwanted hair
- Thread veins
- Acne clearance
- Laser facial / skin rejuvenation
- Wrinkle reduction
- Remove sun damage, dark pigmentation
How intense pulsed light works
IPL technology is a type of laser that generates intense bursts of red or blue light. These heat the dermal tissue without harming or removing the outer epidermal layers of the skin. The body’s natural processes then work to break down and remove these marks. The appearance of any skin imperfection is then visibly reduced.
How long does it take ?
The treatment is pain-free but you may experience a slight tingling sensation and have some redness after for an hour or so. Each treatment takes around 20 minutes and you will be able to leave the clinic immediately after your session.
Regular treatments keep skin looking young and fresh
We also recommend a top-up treatment once or twice a year to maintain your rejuvenated skin. Around 6 treatments at 3 week intervals is usually recommended
What IPL treatment involves
A cooling gel is first applied to the area to be treated and you’ll be asked to wear protective eye wear. We then carry out the treatment using one of the latest IPL machines.This delivers precise pulses of light that eliminate the pigment or imperfection without damaging surrounding tissue.
IPL results
Your skin will appear fresher, rejuvenated and younger-looking even after just a few treatments and the benefits of a full course can last up to a year. Visible results can be dramatic with the increased collagen production toning and improving the elasticity of your skin. IPL is effective in itself but a combination of treatments could enhance results further.
IPL with other treatments
IPL is effective in itself but a combination of treatments could enhance results further. Other treatments capable of giving you firmer, younger-looking skin are microdermabrasion, microneedling or skin peels.
