10月22 Everything you need to know about IPL Skin Rejuvenation
What is IPL skin rejuvenation?
IPL is short for Intense Pulsed Light, although you may see it referred to as Photo Rejuvenation or Photofacial. Approved and patented by both the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), IPL skin rejuvenation is a non-surgical treatment that treats various types of pigment located throughout the skin’s layers.
Additionally, long-term treatment with IPL devices has also shown to offer some anti-ageing benefits.
How does it work?
IPL devices emit broad spectrum light that’s able to penetrate the different depths of our skin. Brown pigment tends to be located more superficially whereas red pigment sits a little deeper. IPL energy can traverse all layers and is absorbed by both brown and red pigments, thereby destroying them in the process. The healing resulting from IPL treatment produces a more even complexion as excess melanin deposits and vascular lesions are literally vaporised from the skin’s surface over several sessions.
IPL promotes the production of collagen deep in the dermal layers which helps to improve skin laxity and firmness. Pore size is reduced, fine lines and wrinkles are less noticeable and skin looks more radiant and youthful.
