IPL is the first and only technology that combines optical (light) energy. Gentle pulses of targeted energy isolate the treatment area and leave the surrounding skin free from potentially harmful side effects. In addition to permanent hair reduction for most hair colors and skin types, IPL effectively and comfortably treats pigmented lesions, moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris, ephelides (freckles), and vascular lesions caused by sun damage, age spots, enlarged pores and uneven skin tones. A series of IPL treatments will leave your skin smoother clearer with a tighter more youthful appearance.

What IPL Photofacial Treats
- Skin Rejuvenation
- Pigmentation Treatment
- Vascular Treatment
- Wrinkle Treatment
- Acne Treatment
Treatment Of Ephelides (Freckles)
Collagen effectively absorbs the spectrum of light. This results selective thermolysis of collagen resulting in heating and contraction of collagen bundles. The retraction of collagen bundles makes this process effective in the management of fine superficial freckles.
Treatment of Vascular Lesions & Moderate Inflammatory Acne Vulgaris
The target chromophore for vascular lesions is hemoglobin. The light absorbed by hemoglobin is converted to heat thereby effectively cauterizing the endothelial walls of capillaries.
Treatment of Pigmented Lesions
Light is absorbed by melanin is transformed into heat energy. This process causes the breakdown of pigment molecules and is cleaned and by phagocytes and are also shed off by the normal process skin renewal. Transient erythema and darkening of pigment molecules can be expected.

Dermaplaning is a skin care treatment that removes dead skin cells and vellus fine hair. The blade is used on clean, dry skin on the forehead, cheeks, chin and neck. You can expect to see an instant improvement in skin texture and tone, while the long-term effects are increased cell turnover, fewer wrinkles and dark spots, reduction of acne scarring, better product penetration and the removal of fine facial hair.
Microdermabrasion treatments use a minimally abrasive instrument to gently sand your skin, removing the thicker, uneven outer layer. This type of skin rejuvenation is used to treat light scaring, discoloration , sun damage and stretch marks.
We use a hard and soft wax for different areas these waxes are great for sensitive skin.
Waxing is a form of semi-permanent hair removal which removes the hair form the root. New hair will not grow back in the previously waxed area for four to six weeks, although some people will start to see regrowth in only a week due to some of the hair being on a different growth cycle.
At IPL and Skin Wellness we turn all our wax clients into IPL Permanent Hair Removal Clients!

Brow and Lash tinting creates a polished & put-together look. It is a perfect way to look made up with minimum effort. Your eyebrows and eyelashes will look defined with out a slick of makeup. If you’re after a more dramatic look you can choose a contrasting shade or you can always top up your look with mascara.
Blondes, red heads and those with a fair complexion particularly benefit from the added definition. Even dark hair gets lightened by the sun, with the ends and lower ashes often barely noticeable. Tinting is great if you lead an active lifestyle, whether that’s playing sport or just wanting to look good in any sort of weather.
Single strands of synthetic lashes are applied to one of your own natural eyelashes. Each synthetic lash is placed at the base of your natural lash with an adhesive. Refills will be needed every 2 weeks to replenish the fallen out hairs and to maintain the look.
