How does IPL work?

The IPL device uses strong pulses of light that safely removes blemishes and small thread veins – leaving a smoother skin tone, healthier complexion, less redness, and visible sun damage.

Who is suitable for the IPL?

IPL for skin rejuvenation can be carried out on skin types 1-4 on the Fitzpatrick scale.

How many treatments will I need?

Each treatment session will build on the results of the previous one, therefore we usually recommend a minimum of 3 sessions to get the best results.

A consultation and patch test are both required before your first treatment.


What are the benefits of IPL?

IPL is excellent for rejuvenating the skin. As the redness and pigmentation disappear, the skin is left much healthier and clearer looking.

If you already have a good skincare routine, it works brilliantly to help maintain the health and appearance of your skin.

Rosacea

What is it?

Rosacea is a common chronic skin condition that affects parts of the face. The most common symptoms of rosacea is persistent flushing of the skin, permanent redness, visible blood vessels under the skin surface with a burning or stinging sensation to the affected area and spots or bumps . In severe cases you can develop thickened skin around the nose and cheeks with irritation around the eyes.

If you suffer with vascular Rosacea, which includes flushing, redness, and thread veins these symptoms can be successfully treated with laser or IPL to collapse the vessel making it shrink or even disappear entirely.  IPL will not cure your Rosacea but will help to manage the symptoms.
