Photo Rejuvenation

IPL photo rejuvenation is a non-invasive treatment that erases skin damage without disruption of the skin’s surface, with minimal risk and perhaps most importantly, no “downtime”

How is the Photo Rejuvenation Procedure performed?

A cold gel is usually applied to the area to be treated. An intense light is applied in a series of gentle pulses over the treatment area. You might feel a slight sting, like the snapping of a small rubber band. Without damaging the skin, the light penetrates through the skin and is absorbed by abnormally dilated vessels or pigmentation. The heat causes the damage to the vessel or breaks down the pigment, and body begins its natural healing process. Each treatment takes about twenty minutes depending upon the area to be treated and can be carried out as frequently as every three weeks.

How many Treatments will I need?

For optimal results, a series of three to five treatments are recommended. Follow-up treatments may be desired once a year to maintain results. The same treatment can be used effectively on the neck, the chest and the hands.

What are the benefits of Photo Rejuvenation?

Treatment Improves sun spots, age spots, dull complexions, uneven pigmentation and large pores. Visible signs of ageing get diminished along with flushing of the skin, broken capillaries and rosacea. Skin gets revitalised, become smoother and even toned. To achieve superior cosmetic enhancements of the face photo rejuvenation can be done soon after microdermabrasion followed on from a mild chemical peel.

Are there any possible side effects?

Side effects are rare. Immediately following the treatment, the skin may appear flushed, brown pigmented spots may appear darker, and capillaries may be more visible. In rare instances, temporary swelling or blistering can occur. In order to minimise such unforeseen side effects it is advisable to apply cool compression and continue to use recommended recovery cream and moisturiser with sun protective factor cream between the treatments.
