What is IPL?
IPL treatment uses a beam of many different wavelengths of light to break down the accumulated spots of melanin, reddened areas and the blood which has leaked out of broken capillaries.
How is IPL different?
IPL treatment is gentler and more customisable than many other skin treatments. It is also more targeted towards removal of pigmentation, whereas other procedures are usually aimed at wrinkle reduction.
What are the benefits of IPL?
IPL treatment has a wide range of benefits. We can use it to treat:
- Freckles, sunspots and other hyper pigmented areas
- Acne (the light energy destroys bacteria colonising your skin)
- Sun damage and diffuse redness
- Broken capillaries
- Uneven colouring
