Intense Pulsed Light Treatment London

IPL therapy works by using a broad range of wavelengths to target vascular and pigmented components in the skin. Unlike laser therapy, which focuses on a single wavelength, IPL delivers visible light pulses to the deeper layers of skin, breaking down excess pigmentation and abnormal blood vessels while triggering collagen production. This process gradually fades dark spots, reduces redness, and improves overall skin texture.

Stimulates collagen growth to enhance skin firmness and elasticity.

Targets a wide range of skin concerns, including pigmented lesions, vascular lesions, and facial lentigines.

Reduces redness, broken blood vessels, and rosacea, improving complexion clarity.

Removes unwanted hair by disabling hair follicles, preventing future hair growth.

Minimal side effects, with fast recovery time and little-to-no downtime

Consultation & Skin Assessment – A consultation is conducted to assess skin type and suitability for IPL. Patients may be advised to avoid sun exposure and retinoids before treatment.

Treatment Process – A cooling gel is applied, and gentle pulses of light energy are delivered to the skin using a handheld IPL device.

Sensation – You may feel a warm, tingling sensation, similar to a light snap, but IPL is generally well tolerated.

Post-Treatment – Results improve over multiple sessions, with minimal downtime. Temporary redness may occur post-treatment, resolving within hours to days.
