IPL is a non-invasive light-based technology used to remove unwanted hair and improve many skin conditions. Conditions including age spots, sun spots, freckles, superficial capillaries and other unsightly discolouration of the skin can be eliminated using this technology. IPL is also effective for those who suffer facial redness and can stimulate fibroblast causing increased collagen production in your skin.
HOW DOES IPL WORK?
We apply a specially designed handpiece to your skin which generates an intense pulse of light that will be absorbed by targets in your skin. The light delivered from the handpiece is delivered at high intensity during a very short time. This rapid discharge of light provides the high energy levels required for each IPL treatment to be effective.
SKIN TONE CORRECTION AND FRECKLES
Whether born with them or acquired over a lifetime, virtually everyone has one or more sunspots, freckles or skin discolouration. A doctor’s letter confirming that no skin cancers are present is usually required before commencing your treatment cycle and a series of 4 – 6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart are required for optimal results. Treatments areas such as backs of hands, forearms, décolletage and face will respond well.
REJUVENTATION TREATMENT
Long-term sun exposure decreases the production of collagen, which in turn causes damage to the skin making it feel wrinkled and coarse, and look red and tired. Skin rejuvenation treatments will improve skin tone and texture, and refine and refresh the skin by increasing the production of collagen.
ACNE
We offer IPL based acne management programs. These treatments are designed to slow the overall production of oil that leads to acne, thus dramatically reducing the chance of spots and minimising the appearance of pores in general. Results will vary, but most people will see a significant improvement in skin condition. Treatment is spaced approximately 1 – 2 weeks apart.
REDNESS REDUCTION
We offer treatments that will reduce facial blemishes such as red flushing and red spots found on cheeks and around the nose with minimal downtime or risk. IPL is particularly well suited for the reduction or elimination of visible rosacea. LSB has achieved amazing results with the IPL for redness reduction.
