Using Intense Pulse Light (IPL) technology in a series of treatments your skin can
regain it’s youthful appearance by treating conditions that are associated with aging such as sun damage, age spots,
redness,large pores, uneven texture and fine lines; while REGENERATING your collagen and elastin!
(This is the only known treatment available which actually regenerates your collagen
and elastin!!).
How Does it Work?
IPL systems work on the same principles as lasers in that light energy is absorbed into particular target cells with
color (chromophores) in the skin. The light energy is converted to heat energy, which causes damage to the specific target
area.
IPL photo-facial procedure differs from the lasers in utilizing many wavelengths (or colors) in each pulse of
light instead of just one wavelength. With the use of filters most IPL systems are able to provide the exact amount of energy
output that is required for specific treatment of the affected area. This helps to enhance penetration and avoids the use
of excessive energy reaching to the target tissue preventing any damage.
Photo-facial treatment is considered a non-ablative
resurfacing technique in a way that it targets the lower layers of skin (dermis) without affecting the top layers of skin
(epidermis). The results are not as dramatic as ablative resurfacing where both the dermis and epidermis are injured to produce
a much more noticeable overall outcome.
- Skin Tightening Head: Utilizing Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), we can successfully tighten the
loose and sagging skin on your neck and cheeks. This skin tightening procedure is ideal for targeting those telltale signs of aging, including jowl
and neck laxity.
- Skin Rejuvenation Head: Eliminates sun damage progressively
and effectively as well as improving uneven skin tone and texture.
- Vascular Rejuvenation Head: For reduction
of the appearance of fine veins on the face or body.
- Acne Treatment: The IPL targets
the bacterium which causes acne, killing it and thereby getting rid of your acne. You will need to be treated with the IPL
once a week for at least 4-6 weeks. After that treatment should only be needed once every 3-6 months.

IPL PhotoFacial 3 simple steps:
|
|
|
1. Using the spectrum of IPL
appropriate to the clinical
objective, light energy is
transformed to heat energy
|
|
|
|
|
2. The chromophore in the target tissue - such as hemoglobin or pigment - responds to the heat
energy |
