How Does IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Facial Treatment Work?

The skin is first cleansed to remove any impurities, creating an optimal surface for the IPL treatment.

A handheld IPL device delivers pulses of light to the skin. The light penetrates below the surface, targeting melanin (for pigmentation) and haemoglobin (for redness).

The light energy heats the deeper skin layers, which stimulates collagen production, leading to improved skin elasticity and a reduction in fine lines over time.

IPL specifically addresses areas of pigmentation and vascular irregularities, breaking down dark spots and reducing visible redness.

After the treatment, a hydrating serum and SPF are applied to protect and soothe the skin, helping to lock in moisture and preserve results.
