What is IPL (Intense Pulse Light)
IPL is a non-invasive application of electromagnetic spectrum light designed to target:

• Skin rejuvenation
• Permanent hair removal
• Acne management
• Pigmentation therapy
• Vascular therapy

Each colour of light has a specific weight, temperature, wavelength, density and energy level having different effects on physical and psychological functions. The different lights will penetrate to certain levels of the skin to give us our amazing results. Heat from the lights will target specific chromophores such as blood, melanin, water and bacteria.

Permanent Hair removal

IPL (Intense Pulse Light) emits a light at wavelengths that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. When the hair follicle absorbs the light, the energy is converted into heat which results in thermal damage to the hair follicle. This thermal damage causes delayed regrowth of the hair follicle.

IPL is fast becoming the preferred choice for hair removal. It is fast, treats large and small areas and is relatively pain free. Most people don’t feel any discomfort. Instead of constantly putting up with painful waxing why not try IPL. Normally all you need is 4 – 6 treatments followed by occasional maintenance. Our technician is trained to high standards to give you the best possible results within all safety parameters. Your mind can be at ease that you are in safe hands.

Our state of the art IPL machine will provide proven results on most hair. For those with blonde, red and fair hair (grey hair cannot be treated) we can use e-light for hair removal.

Acne Management

For those who suffer with acne it can a debilitating condition that can impair your confidence and self-esteem. Most acne can be treated in 10 days leaving little trace of the original mark. There are many factors to the causes of acne, the main cause is bacteria in the pores and on the skin. Blue light is used to attack bacteria on the skin which creates and spreads acne.

 

Skin Rejuvenation

IPL releases precisely controlled pulses of filtered light that stimulates the fibroblast cells within the skin that produce collagen and elastin. This will improve the firmness and complexion of the skin and control enlarged pores.

LED Bio-Synthesis

LED Bio-Synthesis is a light activate rejuvenation system that utilise high intensity light emitting diodes (LED’s) ranging from yellow, red, green and blue to stimulate the skin to help reduce acne and hyperpigmentation and to detoxify and increase skins firmness. LED can be used in conjunction with our treatments including IPL (Intense Pulse Light), with no down time, no pain, no surgery.

Pigmentation Therapy

IPL light is absorbed into the melanin in freckles, sunspots and liver spots. The pigmented area absorbs the light and is heated, and is removed by skin renewal. The pigmentation area that is being treated will turn darker and may crust. A Pigmentation treatment is accomplished through thermal defragmentation (shattering) of the melanin whilst retaining the integrity of the surrounding tissue.

Radio Frequency (skin tightening)

Radio frequency can be used on the face and body and will tighten, tone and firm loose, sagging or aging skin. Electrical currents from RF (Radio Frequency) cause molecules to collide, transforming into heat. This heating causes local contraction of collagen fibres, tightening the skin (temporarily). The thermal damage will cause an increase in collagen and elastin synthesis, improve circulation increasing lymphatic flow, increase oxygen supply and greater toxin clearance. Radio Frequency non-invasive and can also be used to improve cellulite. Using RF in conjunction with Fat Cavitation aids in further fat breakdown and skin tightening.

Ultrasound Cavitation (Body contouring)

Ultrasound Cavitation is a non-surgical technology that works to reduce stubborn areas of fat and cellulite. Using a low frequency sound wave we can target and disrupt fat cells, breaking down the fatty tissue and allowing it to be filtered through the body’s lymphatic system.

Ultrasound Cavitation and Radio Frequency Skin Tightening work hand in hand to reduce fat and tighten the skin in areas such as thighs, arms and abdomen.

Vascular Therapy

Strong pulses of IPL filtered light is absorbed by the blood vessels, heating it to a point where it is destroyed. These vessels quickly clear and are re-absorbed by the body leaving the system via the lymphatic system.
