SKIN REJUVENATION
Expert Help Guidance Support
Skin rejuvenation is a term that applies to any treatment intended to make the skin appear younger, reducing the signs of aging. The benefits of using IPL for skin rejuvenation are extensive, from reducing fine lines and wrinkles, rosacea, spider veins, skin discoloration and scarring.

IPL intense pulsed light skin rejuvenation unlike many other light therapies and laser treatments causes minimal damage to the skin and has minimal recovery time and the treatments can be carried out in your lunch break.
As with all treatments a consultation and patch test are required to assess the best course of treatments to give the incredible results and assess your suitability for IPL
Vascular Therapy
​The IPL process is among the best treatments for curing blood vessel conditions. That’s because red blood cells absorb the light so efficiently. An IPL facial benefits most patients by dissolving spider veins and broken capillaries for a youthful appearance. Besides obtaining an even appearance, this process is perfect for treating skin-related conditions such as rosacea.
Rosacea Treatment
IPL can be very effective for the redness and flushing component of rosacea. By treating the blood vessels causing rosacea the vascular response is massively reduced. I have seen incredible results for patients and after several treatments their symptoms are frequently gone. Whilst IPL Therapy will not “cure you” of rosacea, it will significantly treat the physical affect of the disease.
Normally 3-4 sessions is required then another treatment once a year for maintenance purposes
The treatments are relatively quick treating the entire face in about 20 minutes.
Acne Therapy
​One of the laser Photofacial benefits is helping address the causes of acne and its side effects, such as scarring. It also helps reduce inflammation and redness by destroying harmful bacteria. With the help of intense pulsed light, your body will eradicate scar tissues by shedding and creating a new skin layer. Before engaging in this process, ensure that you stop taking systemic and topical medication for about six months
Sun Damage
Skin conditions associated with aging are mainly the result of direct exposure to sun rays. UV radiation disintegrates the collagen in the skin, exposing it to sagging and wrinkling. Besides that, sun rays play a significant role in forming dark spots on the face and hands, giving the skin a weathered, leathery, lined look.
IPL treats the effects of sun rays by penetrating and drawing out discolored cells in the dermis. The skin later eradicates the excessive freckling and dark spots to generate an even skin complexion. After completing this process, the skin generates lots of new collagen that restores the collagen lost after being damaged by the sun.
This treatment process promotes stronger and more vibrant skin. Besides, fine lines and wrinkles will disappear while facial sagging reduces.
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation, commonly known as (age spots, liver spots, sun spots) are typically caused from sun exposure or the natural aging process and are common on the face neck and hands,
IPL works by targeting the melanin, breaking the bonds between the cells to lighten the patches and disperse the clusters over a time.
As pigmentation can often lie deep beneath the skins surface most cases require 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart to allow skin cell renewal to occur.
After the treatment the affected area can often look darker but this will fade normally between 3-5 days

Scar reduction
Many of us have scars which do not affect our lives or confidence but those on our face can have a massive impact.
Luckily IPL is fantastic at reducing the visibility of scars leaving you with more evenly toned skin.
IPL works by triggering the healing response in the skin to remove the existing collagen within the scar and producing new smoother layers of skin, dramatically improving the visibility of the scar.
