IPL Skin Rejuvenation Treatment
What is IPL?
IPL skin rejuvenation treatment is a skin care procedure that works to rejuvenate your skin and visibly reduce skin imperf ections. IPL delivers intense pulsed light to the skin and is absorbed by unwanted skin pigmentations, causing the pigment to shatter and seal the surrounding small blood vessels. The heat energy of the laser stimulates new collagen production, firms the s kin and reduces skin pore size, resulting in a more perfect looking skin.
What skin conditions does IPL (Intensed Pulse Light) treat?
- Freckles, sunspots and other hyperpigmented areas
- Acne (the light energy destroys bacteria colonising your skin)
- Sun damage and/or redness
- Broken capillaries
- Decreases pore size
- Uneven skin tone
- Fine lines (Stimulates the production of collagen, a natural protein that fills in lines, making the skin smooth and youthful)

IPL Skin Rejuvenation
IPL skin rejuvenation, also known as Intense Pulsed Light therapy, is a treatment that uses light to improve the appearance of the skin. The light is absorbed by the skin cells and converted into heat, which then destroys the damaged cells. This process stimulates the production of new collagen and skin cells, which results in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
IPL therapy can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns, including sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, rosacea, and more. It is a non-invasive alternative to other skin rejuvenation treatments, such as chemical peels and laser resurfacing.

What Happens During an IPL Treatment?
During an IPL treatment, a hand-held device is applied to the skin, emitting bursts of light energy that target the pigments in the skin. The light penetrates the skin’s surface and targets the underlying skin cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin fibers. The sensation of the light hitting the skin is often described as a warm, tingling sensation. Treatment sessions typically last 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the size and location of the treatment area. Depending on the severity of the skin concern being treated, patients may require multiple sessions over a period of several weeks or months to achieve optimal results.

What to Expect After an IPL Treatment?
After the treatment, some redness and swelling may occur, similar to a mild sunburn. This is generally temporary, lasting from a few hours to a few days. Patients may notice an improvement in their skin texture and pigmentation immediately after the treatment, with further improvement over the following weeks. It is important to avoid sun exposure and to wear sun protection, such as a hat and SPF, after an IPL treatment to prevent further damage to the skin.

Who Is a Good Candidate for IPL Skin Rejuvenation?
IPL skin rejuvenation is suitable for most skin types and tones. However, those with darker skin tones may be more susceptible to hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation after treatment. It is important to book a comprehensive skin consultation with our skin therapist to determine if IPL is the right treatment for you. Those with active skin infections or certain skin conditions, such as psoriasis or eczema, may need to avoid IPL treatment. Additionally, individuals on certain medications or with certain medical conditions may not be suitable candidates for the treatment.
IPL skin rejuvenation is a safe and effective treatment option for those looking to improve the appearance of their skin without the need for invasive procedures. By stimulating collagen production and reducing pigmentation, IPL therapy can help to rejuvenate and restore a more youthful appearance to the skin. If you are considering IPL therapy, then please book a skin consultation and we can determine if it is the right treatment for you.
