IPL treatment can be used to address:
Rosacea and persistent facial redness
Visible facial vessels and thread veins
Sun spots and pigmentation
Uneven skin tone
Selected acne-related concerns
General skin rejuvenation
IPL works by delivering controlled pulses of light into targeted areas of the skin. Different wavelengths are absorbed by pigment or blood vessels, allowing the treatment to address specific concerns while leaving surrounding skin largely unaffected.
Treatment settings are selected according to your skin type, concern and treatment area. A consultation and skin assessment are carried out before treatment to ensure IPL is suitable and to create an appropriate treatment plan.

What is IPL treatment?
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. It uses controlled pulses of broad-spectrum light to target pigmentation, redness, visible vessels and selected skin concerns.
Can IPL help with rosacea and redness?
IPL may help reduce the appearance of persistent facial redness and visible vessels in suitable patients. A consultation is required to determine whether IPL is appropriate for your skin.
Can IPL treat pigmentation?
Yes. IPL can target selected areas of sun-related pigmentation and uneven skin tone by directing light energy towards excess pigment.
Can IPL be used for acne?
IPL may be used as part of a treatment plan for selected acne-related concerns, particularly redness and inflammation. Suitability depends on your individual skin and acne type.
How many sessions will I need?
Most treatment plans involve a course of sessions. The number required depends on the concern, treatment area and your skin response.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is usually minimal. Temporary redness, warmth or mild swelling can occur following treatment, and pigmented areas may temporarily darken before fading.
