Frequently Asked Questions

What areas can be treated?

Light-based permanent hair reduction can remove hair from faces (except around eyes), backs, chests, arms, underarms, bikini lines and legs.

Am I a good candidate for this procedure?

Permanent hair reduction is available for all skin types, including very light and very dark skin, and most hair colours. Your provider will determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure based on a variety of factors.

How does it work?

Light is used to target and destroy hair follicles responsible for hair growth without harming surrounding tissue, so there's minimal risk.

How long does it take?

Permanent hair reduction treatments take just minutes for small areas and about a half hour for larger areas.

How many treatments will I need?

Several treatment sessions are recommended for the best aesthetic outcome. Permanent hair reduction technology can only affect hair in active phases of growth so several treatments are needed to affect all your unwanted hair. You do not need to let hair grow out between treatment sessions.

What will the treatment feel like?

Most people feel only a slight, momentary "snap" at the treatment site during the procedure.

How quickly will I recover?

You can resume regular daily activities immediately following treatment.

Are there any side effects?

Typically, most people experience a mild, sunburn-like sensation, possibly accompanied by some minor swelling, immediately following the treatment. This usually lasts two to 24 hours. Ask your provider to discuss other possible side effects and the necessary post-treatment care with you.

WHAT IS PHOTO REJUVENATION?

Today's active city lifestyle means that clients are requesting a more effective skin rejuvenation treatment with little or no downtime. Photo Rejuvenation is a dynamic non-invasive procedure using intense pulsed light [IPL] to rejuvenate the skin.

HOW IS THE PHOTO REJUVENATION PROCEDURE PERFORMED?

A cold gel is applied to the area to be treated. The smooth glass surface of the IPL hand piece is gently placed on your skin and pulses of light are applied. A slight sting, like the snapping of a small rubber band will be felt. Treatment is administered in a series of procedures that provides excellent long-term results and high client satisfaction.

WHAT CONDITIONS CAN PHOTO REJUVENATION TREAT?

Imperfections from sun damage and photo ageing.

The overall appearance of aging skin is primarily related to the quantitative effects of sun exposure with resultant UV damage to the collagen and elastic fibres of the skin. This results in skin imperfections such as: skin laxity, dull complexion, enlarged pores, mottled pigmentation, excessive freckling and red and brown sun spots. IPL minimises or eliminates red and brown spots, evens out skin colour and texture and minimises red or flushed appearing skin.

Broken veins and capillaries

Over time, aging, trauma, sun exposure and certain lifestyle factors cause a number of veins and capillaries to break. These appear as red streaks or blotches on the face. IPL therapy can eliminate damaged veins and capillaries by removing virtually all traces of these unsightly blemishes.

Rosacea

Rosacea is a skin ailment that leaves people red faced with chronic flushing. This is caused by the dilation of capillaries and blood vessels. Rosacea can also cause white pimples and blisters on the nose and cheeks. This condition can affect both men and women. IPL can successfully treat dilated blood vessels and redness without injuring the surrounding healthy skin, while greatly reducing the episodes of flushing with long-term effectiveness.

WHY ARE MULTIPLE TREATMENTS NECESSARY?

Depending on the number of conditions you are treating and the severity of the individual problem, a series of five or six treatments may be recommended. Each treatment takes about 45 minutes.

HOW DOES INTENSE PULSED LIGHT WORK?

IPL non-laser technology, which supplies a broad spectrum of light that reaches deep down to the collagen level of the skin to produce remarkable results. The therapeutic light energy is transformed to heat energy. The target tissue is then fragmented and absorbed without damage to the surrounding skin. The skin surface is left smooth and rejuvenated.

• An excellent Botox/filler alternative.

• The technique is nearly painless.

• The needles used are sterile and for single use only.

• Illuminates the complexion.

• Smooths and plumps the epidermis.

• Globally improves firmness.

• Revitalizes the epidermis while delivering a supplement of essential active ingredients.

• Stimulates tissue repair and reactivates the fiber production process, due to its high concentration in epidermal and dermal cytokines, with corrective action on wrinkles and fine lines.

• Helps reduce cutaneous slacking due to the premature aging process.

• When micro-perforation occurs, neutrophils (from the white blood cell family) release growth factors that stimulate fibroblast activity. Once stimulated, the fibroblasts produce collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans (including hyaluronic acid). These substances remain present at the dermo-tissue.

• Contrary to micro-rollers micro-puncture lab does not lift the epidermis and therefore does not cause trauma.

• Result: skin is refined, fine lines and wrinkles smoothed and cutaneous imperfections such as scars attenuated.
