IPL (intense pulsed light) is an effective treatment for reducing skin redness and visible capillaries and evening the complexion. It is well suited to people who want to ease couperose-prone skin, rosacea or localised redness on the face.
IPL light pulses pass through the surface of the skin and target the blood vessels responsible for redness. The light is absorbed by haemoglobin and converted into heat, which closes the unwanted capillary. Over time, the treated vessels shrink and fade, reducing redness. The surrounding tissue remains unharmed, leaving the skin looking calmer and more even.
1. Consultation: The specialist assesses your skin and confirms whether the treatment is suitable.
2. Skin preparation: The skin is cleansed and covered with a special gel.
3. Device settings: The IPL device is adjusted to the extent of the redness and your skin characteristics.
4. Light pulses: Controlled pulses are applied to the areas of concern to reduce redness.
5. Cooling and protection: A cooling system helps keep the treatment comfortable.
6. Finishing care: A soothing product and sunscreen are applied at the end of the treatment.
IPL redness treatment can help with:
First results: Usually visible within 2–4 weeks after the first treatment.
Treatment course: For the best result, a course of 3–5 treatments at intervals of 2–4 weeks is generally recommended.
