An IPL skin rejuvenation treatment (or intense pulsed light) uses light energy to target accurately and remove pigmented or damaged skin cells or hair follicles.

Using a handheld device, we will target multiple wavelengths of light onto the skin. This light heats cells in the skin and breaks them down. The body then removes the damaged tissue naturally.

People may choose IPL as a treatment for a range of skin issues. These include:

• acne scars

• birthmarks

• rosacea, a condition that causes redness of the face

• hyperpigmentation, including liver or age spots and freckles

• melasma, a condition causing brown or gray-brown skin patches

• scars

• spider veins

• stretch marks

• sun damaged skin

• wrinkles

People may also commonly use it to remove unwanted hair or tattoos.
