IPL skin rejuvenation

IPL skin rejuvenation (Intense Pulsed Light) is used for the purpose of long term hair reduction, facial vein removal, facial rejuvenation and removal of sun freckles and pigmentation. The IPL machine releases an extremely strong light which can be selectively filtered to different wavelength bands to work on different lesions within the skin.

Long term hair reduction on many areas of the face and body is very popular. Photorejuvenation is achieved by reducing red vein and brown pigmented marks and by stimulating collagen production. The strength and intensity of light on skin cells also helps improve circulation, tightens skin and minimises slight wrinkles and pores. The lightening of the skin is achieved by selective photothermolysis to eliminate freckles, senile plaques and block superficial telengectasiae (veins).

Most people do not require anesthesia for IPL as an excellent cooling system in the treatment head makes the procedure virtually painless. Because it works on lower layers IPL leaves the top surface unscathed so you can immediately apply makeup and continue your usual daily activity.
