​

​

Lightening of Pigmentation & Vessels
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology is a dermatological breakthrough that effectively treats skin discolouration, blemishes, dull complexion, enlarged pores and fine facial lines.

​

​

Treatment of Acne & Acne Scars

​

Hair Removal

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments have gained a reputation for being an effective hair removal option. IPL removes the melanin that is found naturally in both the hair shaft and follicle; it is able to remove hairs currently on the skin as well as reduce future hair growth. Usually, around 6 to 8 treatment sessions are needed for permanent hair removal. This treatment can be used on almost every part of the body.

Pre-treatment Care Recommendations

- Use adequate UV protection and avoid harsh sunlight

- Remove all makeup before the treatment

​

​

Post-treatment Care Recommendations

- Slight redness is perfectly normal after the treatment. The redness will fade off within a few hours to a few days. If you'd like to, you may apply ice to the affected areas to ease the redness

- Avoid strenuous activities for the remainder of the day

- Use adequate UV protection and avoid harsh sunlight

- Keep skin adequately moisturized
- Refrain from washing your face until the morning after your treatment. While the skin is still sensitive, wash with tepid water and a gentle cleanser. For 4 weeks following the treatment, avoid mechanical exfoliation

- Avoid picking at or scratching the skin as this may cause scarring. Allow the skin to gradually exfoliate on its own
