How Does IPL Laser Treatment Work?

IPL laser treatment uses targeted energy to remove damaged or pigmented skin cells or hair follicles. A trained IPL technician will use a handheld device to direct wavelengths of light onto the skin.

This area will heat up and break down the discoloured area or hair follicle. The damaged tissue is then removed naturally by the body. IPL is a little different to traditional laser treatment, because it sends out more than one wavelength of light at a time.

IPL laser treatments are safe, short and effective treatments that can even be administered in a lunch break! IPL is most effective on untanned, pale skin and the treatment is best for:

Who Shouldn’t Get an IPL Treatment?

If you’re pregnant, have a skin condition or take medication for another condition, you should consult your doctor before getting IPL laser treatment. IPL also isn’t a good idea if you’re sensitive to light, are very dark skinned, you have skin cancer or you have a skin resurfacing disorder. If you’re unsure if it’s right for you, book a complimentary consultation, with a Face Solutions expert skin consultant.

IPL Laser Pigmentation Removal

Skin pigmentation or discolouration can be caused by a range of reasons including sun exposure, skin trauma, hormonal influences, genetics and age. IPL laser treatment is one of the most effective ways to treat a variety pigmentation types and can be tailored to each client’s skin type, tolerance and preference.

A Face Solutions skin technician will assess your skin, talk to you about your desired outcome and select an IPL laser technique and setting to target the correct skin layer and skin type. IPL is effective at treating any size and severity of pigmentation, quickly and safely.

IPL Laser Treatment for Hair Removal

IPL laser is an extremely effective hair removal treatment for the face, lower body and upper body. It’s a faster and less painful solution than general laser treatment to get rid of unwanted hair, even in delicate areas.

The number of sessions you’ll need for the best results will vary depending on your age, skin type and hair type/thickness. But generally, clients see significant and lasting results after 6 to 8 sessions. Contact us today for a complimentary consultation.
