Acne treatment
IPL therapy is a great solution for those struggling with persistent breakouts and inflammation. The primary cause behind acne, Propionibacterium acnes bacteria, is specifically targeted by light pulses that permeate the skin. Under the influence of IPL, pores are cleansed, sebum production is reduced, and bacterial infections are suppressed. Therapy also promotes cell renewal and aids in the healing of affected areas.
Key benefits:
- Lessens inflammation and breakouts: IPL reduces sebum production and gets rid of bacteria that cause acne.
- Prevents new breakouts: By decreasing sebaceous gland activity, the treatment protects against future outbreaks of acne.
- Improves overall skin condition: After treatment, skin appears brighter, healthier, and less irritated.
Post-Acne Treatment
After acne, scars, skin irregularities, and dark spots often remain, which can cause psychological discomfort. IPL phototherapy improves skin texture and stimulates the generation of collagen to help address these problems. During the process the light pulses reach the skin’s deeper layers by enhancing skin tone and promote natural tissue regeneration. This procedure is also suitable for treating both fresh acne marks and old scars.
Key benefits:
- Reduces redness and scarring: IPLstimulating the synthesis of new collagen, which aids in skin healing and lessens the prominence of scars.
- Even skin tone: By reducing pigmented and dark patches, the process leaves the skin with a more even tone, improves skin texture.
- Improves skin texture: After a course of treatment, the skin becomes smoother and more even, without bumps or scars.
Pigmentation Treatment
Pigment spots are a common problem, particularly for those with hormone imbalances or those who spend a lot of time in the sun. IPL phototherapy is a safe and efficient way to balance out skin tone and lighten pigmented spots. During the procedure, the light pulses target melanin—the pigment that causes skin darkening. As a result, the pigment progressively disappears, making the skin more even and brighter.
Key benefits:
- Reduces pigmentation spots: IPL efficiently reduces hyperpigmentation by focusing on melanin pigment directly.
- Even skin tone: After the procedures skin looks a smooth, natural tone without dark spots or pigmentation changes.
- Encourages the creation of collagen: The process triggers the skin’s own natural regeneration processes, which further improves the condition and firmness of the skin.
How does IPL Phototherapy work?
IPL-phototherapy is an effective method for treating a range of skin problems and cosmetic issues by using intense light pulses. Unlike traditional laser treatments, which use a single wavelength of light, IPL generates light at different wavelengths and this helps it to target several layers of the skin and resolve a variety of problems.
The basic principle of IPL is the effect of light pulses to pigmented skin patches, such as melanin (which gives skin its colour) and haemoglobin (a pigment found in blood). These pigments absorb light, dissolving undesirable cells and structures including dark patches, swollen blood vessels and bacteria that cause acne. In addition, this treatment can increase the creation of college and a protein that enhances skin renewal and appearance overall.
Consultation with a specialist
Before starting the procedure we advise to have a consultation with our specialist, who will analyse your skin condition and determine the best locations for treatment.
Avoid suntan
Refrain from sun exposure and tanning beds 2-4 weeks before the procedures. Because the light targets pigmented parts of the skin, tanning increases the risk of burns or pigmentation during IPL treatment.
Use sunscreen:
Always use sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater to protect your skin from UV radiation, even if you’re not in direct sunshine.
Avoid of hair removal:
A week or more prior to your visit, avoid using wax tweezers or hair removal treatments on the areas that will be treated because they may cause skin irritation.
Arrive skin-clean:
Don’t apply moisturisers, makeup, perfumes or any other products on the regions that will be treated on the day of your treatment.
Avoid clear or harsh treatments
Don`t do peelings, laser treatments and other harsh skin care procedures one week before RF Lifting.
Hydration:
Use calming and moisturising cosmetics on the skin. This will improve the procedure’s effectiveness and help keep the moisture level of your skin.
Avoid clear heat treatments
Saunas, hot baths and other treatments that could result in skin overheating should be avoided for a few days after the procedure
Avoid the sun:
Use sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and avoid direct sunlight for the next two to four weeks after your treatment.
Steer clear of heat treatments:
To prevent overheating of the skin, stay out of hot baths, saunas, hot tubs and physical activity for 48 hours following your treatment.
Schedule your next session:
Make your next appointment in 4-6 weeks if you think you’ll benefit most from repeated HydraFacial sessions.
