FAQ

How does it work
Intense pulses of light are sent through the outer layer of the skin (epidermis) and energy is concentrated on the deeper layer (dermis). The blemishes absorb the light and the heat energy breaks down the blemishes into minute particles. These particles are then absorbed into the blood stream eliminated through the lymphatic system. It also stimulates cells in the dermis to produce new collagen which plumps out the complexion, smoothing it out and ridding it of fine lines creating a more youthful-looking skin.

How many treatments will I need?
For most skin types, maximum long-lasting results are achieved with a total of 5 to 6 treatments, with a 3-week interval between each treatment. In some cases, the person will notice a 'glow' and smoother complexion as early as after the first treatment.

Who is suitable for this treatment?
Most people are suitable except for the very dark-skinned or recently tanned individual. A doctor's consultation is mandatory before starting IPL.

What should I expect during and after the treatment?
You may feel warm and tingling sensation during the procedure but the built-in cooling chiller tip will aid your comfort.

There are very minimal side effects; no downtime and hardly any interruption to the person's routine. Some cases may have transient mild burning sensation, temporary flushing, slight bruising and discolouration of the skin.

How long does the procedure take?
Each session takes about 30 minutes.
