What is IPL skin rejuvenation?
IPL treatments work very well to reduce and remove brown and red spots on the skin and create an overall better complexion.
How does it work?
The powerful light generated penetrates down to the second layer of the dermis without harming the top layer (Epidermis) The pigment cells in your skin absorb the light energy which is converted into heat. The heat destroys the unwonted pigment to clear up freckles and other spots.
Does the treatment hurt?
The sensation can feel hot and tingly, some people describe it as being flicked with a hot elastic band. The process is very quick so the pain does not last for long.
