IPL Facial 'Laser' Treatment

Lumenis IPL Laser Treatment

One of the most advanced, non-invasive and non-surgical laser rejuvenation treatments available, effectively treating sun damage, rosacea & common signs of ageing.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) is a method of skin treatment and rejuvenation that uses light-based energy to improve the appearance of the skin. It selectively heats and damages specific targets in the skin without disrupting the surface, making it a safe and popular treatment for both men and women with little pain or discomfort and limited downtime.

It is one of our favourite and busiest Lasers, and we use it to treat a range of skin problems ranging from medical conditions such as Rosacea, redness, thread veins, and sun damage to common issues such as lines, wrinkles, pigment irregularities, and age/sunspots.

How does ipl work?

Intensive Pulse Light (IPL) Skin Rejuvenation is one of the most effective methods of treating skin damage in a non-invasive way. IPL is not a laser but a broad-wavelength light pulsed onto the skin.

IPL is particularly effective at treating Rosacea Redness and Sun Damage.

Rosacea

Rosacea is a condition that causes facial redness, flushing, and dilation of tiny blood vessels in the skin, nose, and cheeks. IPL light therapy uses wavelengths to absorb Oxyhemoglobin found in the blood, which causes redness.

Redness & Skin flushing

By removing some of the superficial tiny blood vessels in the face that swell with blood when you become warm, we can reduce embarrassing episodes of facial flushing and improve your confidence in social situations.

IPL effectively targets and treats a variety of skin concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, and uneven skin tone, helping you achieve a more youthful and radiant complexion.

    what our therapists say

    “It helps remove anything red and brown in the skin, so pigmentation and broken capillaries and thread veins.”

    “I really love the results, because as well as treating pigmentation and thread veins, you also get the collagen stimulation as well.”

    What does the treatment involve?

    Following skin cleansing, a cool conducting gel is applied to the area to be treated. The treatment is delivered then through a sapphire tipped rectangular block. Some patients liken the experience to that of an elastic band ‘snap’. Immediately after treatment the skin is cooled as it can feel quite warm.

    At your initial consultation a test patch is performed to assess the skin’s response. Most patients will have a series of at least three treatments, spaced a minimum of 4 weeks apart.

     

    What are the side effects?

    The treatment can be uncomfortable. The skin is often red immediately afterward. This usually settles within a few hours but can last a few days. Less commonly there can be some associated swelling, again usually only for a few hours. Any pigmented age spots tend to darken and fall off.

    Crusting and blistering are rare. Scarring, although possible is also very rare. It is to minimise the risk of this that a test patch is performed a week prior to treating the entire face.
