IPL Treatment
Intense Pulsed Light therapy for multiple skin concerns
Harness the power of light to treat pigmentation, redness, acne, and vascular concerns. Our medical-grade IPL technology delivers targeted results with customised settings for your unique skin.
The Science
What is
IPL?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) uses broad-spectrum light to penetrate below the skin's surface and treat multiple concerns simultaneously.
Unlike lasers that use a single wavelength, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths in each pulse. This versatility allows us to target melanin (pigmentation), haemoglobin (blood vessels), and bacteria (acne) with precise, customised settings.
Our medical-grade IPL devices feature acne- and pigment-specific filters for safe, effective treatment. Settings are carefully adjusted for your unique skin type, ensuring results without irritation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does IPL work?
IPL uses broad-spectrum light to penetrate below the skin's surface. Different filters target specific chromophores (melanin for pigmentation, haemoglobin for blood vessels, or bacteria for acne). The light energy is converted to heat, which destroys the target while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed.
Is IPL treatment painful?
Most clients describe the sensation as a mild snapping feeling, like a rubber band against the skin. We use cooling gel and can adjust the settings based on your comfort level. Most find it very tolerable.
How many sessions will I need?
Most concerns require 3-6 sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart for optimal results. During your consultation, we'll recommend a personalised treatment plan based on your specific concerns.
What should I expect after treatment?
You may experience mild redness and warmth for a few hours. Pigmented spots may darken temporarily before flaking off over 7-14 days. It's essential to avoid sun exposure and wear SPF 50+ daily.
Is IPL safe for all skin types?
IPL is most effective and safest on lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick I-III). We carefully assess each client and adjust settings accordingly. For darker skin tones, we may recommend alternative treatments to ensure safety.
Can I combine IPL with other treatments?
Yes! IPL works wonderfully in combination with other treatments like LED therapy, chemical peels, and Hydrafacial. We'll create a comprehensive treatment plan that may include multiple modalities for best results.
