Your IPL/LASER/VPL Questions Answered

What can IPL/VPL treat?

Hair Removal
Unwanted hair can be removed from all parts of the body, including legs, chin, upper lip, bikini line, underarms, back and chest, including nipples.

Did you know, the following can also be treated…

Skin Rejuvenation
IPL/VPL rejuvenates skin by stimulating deep collagen production. Skin appears smoother, plumper and lifted with uneven skin tone and skin texture greatly improved. Open pores will also be minimised.

Skin Conditions
About Face also use IPL/VPL in the treatment of: red veins; age spots or other pigmentation; rosacea; and scar tissue.

How does IPL/VPL work?

The Energist Ultra VPL system is designed so that each shot of light comprises a sequence of rapid shorter pulses. These variable pulses ensure more controlled absorption by the appropriate structures whilst minimising heating of the surrounding tissues. This means that a greater range of skin and hair types can be safely and effectively treated than was previously possible.

What makes this IPL/VPL system special?

Traditionally, light-based treatment has been associated with lasers. As technology has progressed, research has shown that Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), and in particular Variable Pulsed Light (VPL) are regularly producing better results than the laser units originally available.

Pulsed light units are non-laser, emitting light across a broad range of wavelengths that are preferentially absorbed by the appropriate structure in the skin.

What is the IPL/VPL treatment process?

After a full consultation with one of our fully trained IPL/VPL therapists, a comprehensive treatment programme can be developed to match your needs.

The area to be treated will be prepared and the applicator head will be stepped progressively across the skin to ensure complete coverage. An intense flash of light is applied to each section of the area to be treated. It feels like a tiny sting and is quite tolerable – much more comfortable than, for example, waxing.

For hair removal: the light is absorbed by the melanin (the pigment in the hair), causing the cells which stimulate hair growth to be heated and destroyed. Most areas will require between 6 and 10 treatments, however, the darker the skin or the lighter the hair, the more treatments will be required.

Is there anything I need to do prior to or after IPL/VPL treatment?

Sun or tanning beds must be avoided for at least four weeks prior to treatment, to ensure your skin is as close to its natural colour as possible. You must also avoid the sun for seven days after IPL/VPL treatment.

Your therapist will advise you at the time of any other precautions to take.

For Hair Removal: the area you wish to be treated should be shaved 2 or 3 days before treatment.
