IPL treatment – an effective solution for many skin problems
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment is a modern and versatile cosmetic treatment device that offers an effective solution to many skin problems. It can treat age-related changes, pigmentation disorders, rosacea, acne scars and even remove unwanted hair. In this blog, we’ll go through what IPL can be used for, who it’s best suited for, what to consider before treatment, what results to expect, and what to do after treatment.
So what exactly is IPL treatment for?
IPL treatment is a non-invasive method that uses light pulses. These light pulses penetrate deep into the skin and correct various skin condition problems, while stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. This, in turn, helps to reduce fine lines, firm the skin and improve its texture. IPL treatment provides a natural face-lifting effect, giving skin an instantly more youthful and firmer appearance – without surgery or long recovery times!
IPL treatment is an excellent choice if you want to reduce or eliminate, for example:
– Sun-induced pigment changes and signs of ageing
– Rosacea redness
– Acne scars and uneven skin tone
– unwanted hair from certain areas
IPL treatment is suitable for practically everyone and our experts will be happy to advise you on which IPL treatment would be most suitable for you.

What should you consider before coming for IPL and who is it suitable for?
Before your IPL treatment, it is important to avoid sunbathing and using self-tanning products for about two weeks before your treatment, as darker skin can increase the risk of side effects. In addition, certain medications such as anti-inflammatories or blood thinners may be affected, so it is important to discuss these with our professionals first.
The treatment can be recommended to almost anyone looking for an effective solution to unwanted hair growth or other skin problems. IPL treatment technologies are suitable for a variety of skin and hair types, including light hairs and dark skin (especially E-Light and SHR), making it a superior device for hair removal. Our customers have praised the painlessness of the treatment, compared to traditional waxing or sugaring.
What results can you expect and what are the intervals between serial treatments?
The results of IPL treatment vary from individual to individual, but many clients notice a significant improvement in the appearance of their skin immediately after treatment. Pigmentation spots lighten or, at best, disappear completely, skin tone evens out, and hair growth in depilated areas is significantly reduced. However, several treatments are often required, so results will develop gradually over the course of the treatment.
Treatment intervals usually range from 3-5 weeks, and typically 5-7 sessions are required to achieve lasting results. However, this depends on the individual hair growth cycle. We will be happy to tell you more at your assessment visit.
