IPL Acne Treatment and Management
IPL acne management targets acne-prone skin to reduce acne bacteria, breakouts and inflammation for a clearer, more balanced and healthier looking complexion.
What is IPL Acne Treatment
IPL Acne Treatment is a non-ablative procedure that uses intense pulsed light to target c.acnes bacteria in the skin. C. acnes bacteria live in an oxygen free environment and produce endogenic porphyrins. When these porphyrins absorb blue light, free radical damage and oxygen is produced. This process destroys the bacteria and reduces associated inflammation, assisting with resolution of acne lesions.
Indications
Spot treatments of papules and pustules
How many treatments will I need?
This will all depend on your individual situation, and we will carefully assess this for you during your consultation. Some clients may only need 4 treatments, while other may require 6 or 8 to achieve brilliant results.
Can I get on with my day after treatment?
You sure can! Some clients may experience redness immediately post treatment, but this typically subsides not long after treatment. As there is no downtime, you can get on with your day as usual.
