PAIN-FREE IPL TREATMENT! almost :)

CAN IPL SKIN REJUVENATION BE A COMFORTABLE TREATMENT?


 

SO!!!  I have been having IPL skin rejuvenation treatments each winter for 6 years!  I have ALWAYS found them sooo painful that I actually cry real tears.  Although, I have noticed some patients don't find it painful at all. 

NOW listen... Before you start thinking I am soft.  I have always been the brave one in my family with needles, dentists & all manner of uncomfortable pain.  But IPL I cannot handle.  I only persevere because the results are just so good.

Let me explain my insistence on - what I find to be - an extremely uncomfortable treatment.

On my return to Australia, as a 29 year old - and after spending 3 years on-the-tear - I had accumulated definite forehead lines & severe pigmentation

Now as a 38 year old mother, I have not a line on my forehead & my pigment is practically clear, primarily because of IPL treatments.

BUT I HATE THEM!

Something AMAZING happened today.  I was introduced to the combination of a medical numbing agent with my IPL treatment.  My treatment was TOTALLY within my comfort levels.  I could still feel the pulses, but the sensation was completely within my threshold.  I did not flinch once, and the treatment was over a lot quicker than usual, as the Dermal Therapist did not have to stop for me while I composed myself.

I really was a wonderful turn of events.

There are a couple of things you may need to consider before adding a numbing agent to your next IPL treatment.
  • It is not recommended if your concern is capillaries or redness - as your results may not be as good - because your vessels temporarily constrict with the numbing agent.
  • Numbing agent cannot be used over a large surface area of the body ie, back and legs.
  • A patch test may need to be done if you may be sensitive to numbing agents.
  • There is an added cost
 I am planning to have one more treatment on my full face, neck & decolletage with the numbing agent this year.  Then if I have any capillaries that need treating, I will just have them spot treated without the numbing agent on my 3rd visit.  I think I can handle a hand full of zaps - full throttle, just not the whole face now I know there is an alternative :)

Happy Zapping!

L.E.D. Photodynamic Therapy

L.E.D. (Light Emitting Diode) was first developed by NASA in the 1980’s and studies confirmed that it would regenerate human cells – in fact NASA also proved that wounds exposed to L.E.D. healed 4 to 5 times faster than usual. L.E.D. Photodynamic Therapy is now used in skin clinics to effectively treat most skin types including acne, rosacea, wrinkles, lines, fresh scarring & psoriasis. L.E.D. ...
works so brilliantly on skin because the wave length can be tailored to be delivered to the layer of skin that needs to be targeted, as well as effectively killing damaging bacteria. L.E.D. is also able to treat general tiredness & S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder). The great news is that L.E.D. is completely pain-free! It is actually really relaxing. A course of 2 treatments a week for 5 weeks will give the best results. Call 97496261 to book your consultation, find out about our launch special package prices and to book your treatment! You are going to love your before and after photos!

Visible capillaries, Redness

Capillaries become visible when the capillary wall loses its elasticity.  A general redness in the skin is from dilated blood vessels close to the skin surface.   Satisfactory results for both conditions can normally be achieved after 5 IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatments.  Vitamin C Serum & Recovery Serum are great support.
