Intense Pulsed Light

Avoiding complex health issues such as allergy need to be identified during the early stages in order to experience the optimum results. Allergens and pollens cause major problems due to which proper health benefits are not realized.

IPL, also known as Flashlamp Therapy, is widely recognized for its ability to address various skin concerns, including age spots, acne, rosacea, vascular lesions, wrinkles, and unwanted hair. By emitting powerful pulses of multi-colored visible light, IPL targets and breaks down melanin, which contributes to pigmentation and age spots.

This treatment offers a range of benefits, from reducing facial lines and scars to removing unwanted hair, while also improving skin tone and texture.

Commonly Treated Symptoms:

Rosacea
Measles
Wrinkles
Acne
Lesions
Facial Lines
Age Spots

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) operates on the principle of using non-coherent light with varying wavelengths, ranging from 500nm to 1100nm. This light is directed at targeted areas of the skin to address specific skin issues. To ensure protection of the epidermis, IPL systems are equipped with cooling mechanisms, such as cryogen sprays, which help prevent damage to the skin's surface layer.

Process Overview:

Initial Diagnosis: Assessing the skin and identifying areas to be treated.
Laser Technique: Applying laser principles to focus light on problem areas.
IPL Laser Technique: Using intense pulsed light to treat various skin concerns.

For individuals dealing with age spots or those seeking skin rejuvenation, IPL is considered one of the most advanced and effective treatment methods.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment is designed to address a wide range of skin concerns, including rosacea, acne, fine lines, vascular lesions, unwanted hair, and spider veins.

Benefits of IPL:

Long-Term Skin Improvements: IPL delivers lasting effects, enhancing the skin's appearance over time.
Versatility: It is effective for all skin types.
Gentle & Non-Ablative: The treatment is less invasive, with minimal downtime.
Cost-Effective & Convenient: IPL is a more affordable and convenient option compared to many other treatments.

DOES TREATMENT HURT?

Not really! The treatment sensation varies from patient to patient.

HOW DOES IPL WORK ON FINE LINES AND WRINKLES?

When treating fine lines and wrinkles, the light stimulates the growth of collagen, which makes the skin feel plumper and more youthful.

HOW DOES IPL WORK ON SKIN PIGMENTATION?

When treating unwanted areas of pigmentation, targeted areas momentarily absorb the light & generate heat. This breaks down the pigmentation into tiny particles, which then either rise to the skin’s surface as scabs, which are exfoliated away naturally within 1-2 weeks, or the particles are filtered away through the lymphatic system in your body.

HOW DOES IPL WORK ON THREAD VEINS?

When treating thread veins (or other vascular conditions), the light is absorbed by the oxyhaemoglobin in the blood within the vein, causing the blood to coagulate and the thread vein to break up into particles that can be filtered away naturally through the lymphatic system in your body.

HOW DOES IT WORK? DOES IT REJUVENATE MY SKIN?

IPL technology improves the appearance of photo-aged skin, removes age spots (sun-induced freckles), most benign brown pigments, and redness caused by broken capillaries through a process called Photorejuvenation for the face and the body. The process is ideal for patients with active lifestyles because the procedure requires no downtime and has very low risk of side effects.

IN HOW MANY TREATMENTS CAN I HAVE OPTIMUM SKIN REJUVENATION?

At least 4 to 6 sessions are required (2-4 weeks apart).

IS IPL TECHNOLOGY SAFE?

IPL is safe, non-invasive, has minimal side effects and requires no recovery time. IPL is gentler than laser and much faster as a larger area can be treated with each flash.

WHAT KIND OF AFTER CARE IS NEEDED?

Apply sunscreen above SPF 30 daily.

WHAT IS AN INTENSE PULSE LIGHT?

A light based treatment similar to laser treatment, which is effective for reducing redness, brown spots, uneven skin tone and age spots.
