IPL Treatments & Treatment Areas

IPL, which actually stands for "Intense Pulsed Light", uses powerful light rays to treat various dermatological conditions as well as providing an effective means of Hair Reduction. 

It works by ​using polychromatic light (full spectrum) and low-range infrared radiation to target the dark pigment (melanin) found in skin and hair, and which is found in higher concentration around the base of the hair follicle. As the light energy is absorbed by the melanin around the hair root, heat is generated which in turn destroys the papilla, which produces the hair. This causes the hair to be shed, usually 2 -4 weeks following treatment.

The aim is to damage the hair follicle sufficiently to prevent hair regrowth. It is for this reason that IPL is really only suitable for those with good contrast between skin and hair tone. If you have pale skin and dark hair, you are the ideal candidate for this type of hair removal. If your skin tone is too dark, then the risk of the skin absorbing the light and burning becomes greater. 

I WILL NOT TREAT SUN TANNED OR TANNING BED SKIN!
