Ageing Skin
IPL will rejuvenate your skin by stimulating deep collagen production. Your skin will appear smoother, plumper and lifted, with uneven skin tone and skin texture greatly improved. Open pores will also be minimised.
During this treatment the light is absorbed by the appropriate structure in the skin stimulating collagen production or coagulating the tiny blood vessels, or breaking up the melanin in the pigmentation patch. Most people will need around 6 treatments for rejuvenation and up to 6 treatments for other conditions.
Red Veins
The light is absorbed by the veins causing coagulation of these tiny blood vessels.
Pigmentation
The light is absorbed by the sun spot, age spot or other pigmentation and breaks up the melanin – melanin is the substance in the skin which causes pigmentation.
Active Acne
The light stimulates the production of oxygen which destroys the bacteria responsible for the pustules and other blemishes associated with acne. The pustules heal and redness and inflammation are greatly reduced. The skin’s healing response kicks in which improves any scarring and reduces further outbreaks.
Note: The treatment of red veins, age spots or other pigmentation, rosacea and scar tissue are all included in a rejuvenation session.
