IPL Skin Rejuvenation

IPL is a skin rejuvenation treatment , similar to laser therapy, and is sometimes referred to as photo-rejuvenation. It reduces the appearance of superficial pigmented lesions, such as sun spots, and superficial vascular lesions, such as broken capillaries, on the surface of the skin, whilst improving skin texture through collagen stimulation and reduction of pore size. It is commonly used on the face, neck, chest and hands. After a short treatment programme, muscles are more toned with an average increase in muscle mass of up to 16%. Patient satisfaction following the Emsculpt treatment is 96%.
