Intense Pulsed Light (IPL™ ) can simultaneously treat a wide range of facial concerns safely and effectively, such as broken capillaries, benign brown pigment, age spots (sun-induced freckles), mottled pigmentation and poikiloderma. Both the pleasures and stresses of life, along with the simple passage of time, tend to cause our skin to appear older. And the signs of photo-ageing and sun damage are typically most visible on a person’s face and body. While numerous treatments from simple creams to major surgeries exist to improve various facial flaws, skin specialists have always sought dramatic improvement with low risk and no “down time”. Additionally, many conventional treatment options can only address one condition at a time, while they entail a prolonged recovery time, considerable pain and potential side effects. What is Intense Pulsed Light? Photorejuvenation using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL™) technology is a breakthrough treatment that can correct a variety of benign skin conditions, such as facial skin imperfections, the signs of photo-aging, birthmarks, unwanted hair, unsightly small veins, and other blemishes. It offers a safe, non-invasive solution that can be tailored to your individual condition and skin type, providing superior cosmetic results and outstanding satisfaction. How is Photorejuvenation performed? A cold gel is usually applied to the area to be treated, and you may be given dark glasses to protect your eyes from the bright light. The smooth glass surface of the IPL™ handpiece is gently applied to the skin and pulses of light are applied. You may feel a slight sting, like the snapping of a small elastic band. An anaesthetic cream may be used, but is seldom required. Treatment is generally administered in a series of 4 to 6 sessions that provide excellent long-term results, minimal adverse effects and high satisfaction. Each treatment takes about twenty minutes. Why are multiple treatments necessary? Depending on the number of conditions you are treating, and the severity of the individual problem, a series of four to six IPL™treatment sessions may be recommended. You can return to work the same day and resume all your regular activities. By dividing the full program into several treatments, the procedure provides gradual improvement with very low risk – and it preserves the wonderful “no down time” feature that people appreciate so much. How do other treatments compare to Photorejuvenation? While there are lasers that treat telangiectasia and broken capillaries, other lasers that treat benign brown pigments and others yet that are used for resurfacing facial skin, no technology provides the longterm improvement of complexion and texture of the IPL™ skin treatments using Photorejuvenation program – all without the slightest interruption in your busy lifestyle. What should I expect after laser treatment? Redness, mild swelling may occur after your treatment. Your skin may feel hot afterwards. Area can be cooled by applying aloe vera. Pigmented area or sunspots may appear darker for up to 7 days before fading. What conditions can Photorejuvenation treat? Imperfections from Sun Damage and Photo-ageing Facial imperfections or abnormalities can detract from your well being and appearance, no matter how healthy and young you feel.
