Who can have IPL Skin Rejuvenation?

Due to the wavelengths used, IPL is only suitable for those up to a skin type 4, a 5 in some cases. It is absorbed by melanin so is not safe for melanin rich skin.
Some medication, medical/skin conditions and a history of skin cancer may mean you aren't able to go ahead, so please speak with a member of the team before booking to confirm suitability.

Where can you have IPL Skin Rejuvenation?

We can IPL most of the body except veins on the legs (see Leg Veins for this for a deeper, more suitable laser) or near to a tattoo (including permanent makeup).
Any lesions which look a-typical will be declined treatment until a dr has confirmed it is benign and safe to treat with laser.

When should you have IPL Skin Rejuvenation?

Typically every 4 weeks. You may need 1 session, you may need 4+, it depends on the lesion size and severity but you should see improvements immediately. Appointments are on average 30 minutes long. 

How does IPL Skin Rejuvenation work?

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) uses controlled pulses of broad-spectrum light to target specific concerns within the skin. For visible vessels, the light is absorbed by haemoglobin in the blood, generating heat that helps coagulate the vessel so it can gradually be cleared by the body. For pigmentation, it targets excess melanin, breaking down areas of unwanted pigment which then gradually rise to the skin’s surface and shed. IPL can also help improve acne by targeting acne-causing bacteria and reducing inflammation, helping to calm active breakouts and improve overall skin clarity.

What to expect when having IPL Skin Rejuvenation at Bicester Glow Clinic?

Consultation

Every client must undergo a patch test & thorough consultation for each area they wish to treat. We will find the best settings for you and your specfic lesions and skin type. Ensuring your skins safety.
This is just £15. 

Outcomes

From the first session most clients report their concerns to have lessened already with some completely gone from 1 treatment. Larger clusters of lesions or more advanced lesions can take a few sessions to clear the area. Large patches of pigmentation are treated across multiple treatments to allow the skin to heal in small segments for best results.

Aftercare

Keep the area cool, dry, free from creams and chemicals, free from tight clothing etc. Try to avoid strenuous exercise straight away, swimming & steam. Most normal activities can resume from 24-48h. You will receive a full information pack on this upon booking.

Sensation

Is IPL painful? It's described as an elastic band flicking feeling. Or like a hot flick. Clients tend to rate it a 4-5 out of 10 and say the results are worth the mild discomfort.

Prepare

The biggest one? No sun exposure in the treatment areas. If the area is exposed and the skins melanin increases, we will need to wait for your skin to return to its base colour to safely treat as our laser is too powerful to ignore this. Your skins safety is our priority.

Maintenance

Will your concerns be gone forever once completed?
The lesions we have removed should be gone forever but it doesn't stop you from developing new ones as the human body is a living, growing, ever changing organism. Maintenance sessions are recommended every 6 - 24 months. This varies person to person and area to area eg acne may need bi-annual maintenance sessions as may nose veins whereas rosacea is typically annually.
