Skin Rejuvenation
Photo Rejuvenation uses Intense Pulse Light (also known as IPL), a non invasive laser treatment to gently and safely combat the appearance of damaged skin, such as;
- Facial Imperfections
- Signs of photo aging
- Pigmentation's
- Freckles
- Sun Spots
- Redness
- Rosacea
Facial skin is supported by underling collagen and elastin, which diminishes over time, causing fine lines and wrinkles. The light energy used stimulates the production of collagen and as the new collagen forms it softens the appearance of these fine lines and wrinkles. The redness associated with Rosacea can also be dramatically reduced. Photo Rejuvenation can be used to treat the full face, neck, chest and hands.
How Does it Work?
A broad spectrum of light is transmitted through a small glass hand-piece, which is gently placed over the skin. The light penetrates the tissue and is absorbed by either the blood when treating vascular lesions or the melann when treating pigmented lesions, damaging them. The body's natural processes then remove the injured tissue giving the skin a more even and youthful appearance.
How Long Does it Take?
Depending on the area being treated and the purpose of the treatment, treatments will vary from 5 minutes, to 30 minutes.
Is it Painful?
Photo Rejuvenation is not painful. it may give a slightly warm sensation and once again, depending on the purpose of the treatment it may feel, some say, like the snap of a rubber band.
How Many treatments Will I Require?
Depending on each individuals needs and the area being treated, treatments can range from 1 treatment to 10.
Is There Any Down Time?
No, the treated skin may appear a little flushed, however this soon fades, leaving the skin looking younger.
Is the Treatment Safe?
Yes. Photo Rejuvenation has been used safely for many years on millions of people worldwide. These treatments treat only the targeted tissue, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched and intact.
What Results Can I Expect?
After the first treatment your skin will have a more even tone with a smoother look and feel. Over a cause of treatments sun spots will fade and fine lines and wrinkles will reduce in size, pore size will also decrease. Clients with Rosacea will see a progressive decrease in redness with every treatment and can expect an improvement of 80%-90%.
