Micro-needling - hands with Biostratum Peel & Retinol

A noninvasive skin care procedure which uses Intense Pulsed Light to rejuvenate the skin and treat common concerns such as rosacea, sun damage, ageing, dark spots, pigmentation, elasticity and broken blood capillaries.


HOW DOES IPL TREAT THESE CONCERNS?

IPL treats Pigmentation by targeting the pigment within the  skin to break it up.

IPL causes Skin Rejuvenation by stimulating the Fibroblast cells to produce more collagen. This helps to improve wrinkles and elasticity as well as contributing to the production of hyaluronic acid which is a substance that keeps skin hydrated and contributes to a youthful appearance.

IPL treats Rosacea by targeting a compound in the blood called oxyhemoglobin. 
When the temperature of oxyhemoglobin is adequately raised, it destroys the dilated capillaries close to the skin's surface which are responsible for the red appearance seen in rosacea patients.
