5 Signs It’s Time To Book An IPL Treatment During The Cooler Seasons

As we begin to farewell Summer and retreat indoors once again, it’s the perfect opportunity to give our skin some TLC that we often neglect during the summer hustle. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments come as a beacon of light (quite literally) for various skin concerns, from unwanted hair to uneven skin tone. But how do you know it’s time to book an appointment? Here are five signs that scream it’s time to get IPL in your life.

1. The Battle Against Hair Is Real (And You’re Not Winning)

Are you sick of the endless cycle of shaving or waxing? It can feel like a never-ending loop, especially when seeking lasting results. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance solution to hair removal, it’s time to consider IPL Hair Removal.

This technology targets the melanin in the hair follicle, heating and destroying it over time without causing harm to the surrounding skin. With the added bonus of our SHR (Super Hair Removal) for larger treatment areas, like the legs, get ready for notably quicker and more comfortable treatments, effectively slowing hair growth with each session. Farewell “I forgot to shave my legs for this”moments and make way for smooth, maintenance-free skin.

2. Light-Coloured Hair Has Left You In A Lurch

If lighter hair has been your barrier to permanent hair removal, it’s time to reconsider.

Dual-Mode, also known as E-Light, is the next step in IPL evolution, ensuring those with lighter-pigmented hair types, such as blonde or red hair, aren’t left out.

Dual-Mode technology debunks the myth that lighter hair colours can’t enjoy permanent smooth, hair-free skin. It combines IPL with radiofrequency (RF) to target hair follicles more precisely. The RF energy is not melanin-dependent, meaning it can effectively treat hair with less pigment. This dual-action approach provides a solution for those previously considered unsuitable for IPL treatments.

3. Concealer Has Become Your Best Friend

Are you tired of covering up redness and uneven skin tone with layers of makeup? IPL Vascular Therapy and IPL Pigmentation treatments offer a solution to reveal your skin’s natural radiance.

For pigmentation issues such as freckles, age spots, and sun damage, or vascular concerns like broken capillaries and flushed skin, IPL works by targeting the melanin (pigment) or haemoglobin (in blood vessels). The light energy is absorbed by these pigments, converting to heat, which either breaks down the pigment into smaller particles (to be absorbed by the body) or destroys unwanted blood vessels.

Over a series of treatments, IPL can significantly even out skin tone, decrease redness, and give your skin a luminous quality that makeup can’t mimic.

4. Acne Is Cramping Your Style

For those seeking a long-term solution to managing acne, IPL Acne treatment presents a promising option.

IPL treatments for acne target both the P. acnes bacteria responsible for acne breakouts and the inflammation associated with acne. The light energy destroys the bacteria on the skin and within the pores while reducing redness and promoting faster healing of existing acne lesions.

This dual-targeted approach means IPL Acne treatments can significantly improve skin clarity and reduce breakouts. The results can be even more transformative when layered with LED Light Therapy.

5. You’re Ready For A Skin Revolution

If you’re eager to use the cooler months to level up your skin game with more advanced treatments, IPL Skin Rejuvenation could be your go-to. This procedure treats dull, ageing, and sun-damaged skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production for a firmer, more youthful complexion.

It’s one of the most popular treatments that feature in our comprehensive skin plans thanks to its ability to transform your skin’s health and appearance and work in harmony with our skin treatments, such as LED Light Therapy and advanced facials.

The transformative potential of IPL is vast, addressing everything from unwanted hair to acne, pigmentation, and the signs of ageing. However, understanding whether IPL is the right choice for you involves a personalised consultation. Here, we can discuss your specific concerns, assess your skin type, and determine the most effective treatment plan tailored just for you. Before diving into the full treatment, we start with an essential test patch. This step ensures your skin’s compatibility with IPL, setting the stage for a successful, tailored treatment journey.

If any of these signs resonate with you, it might be time to consider IPL treatments this cooler season. Don’t let more time pass dealing with the same old skin frustrations – book a consultation with us today, and let’s make this the year where your skin truly shines, radiating health and confidence from within.
