PROCEDURES PERFORMED USING IPL or RF (E-light) MACHINES

1. HAIR REMOVAL (5-10 treatments):

Before surgery, it is advisable to avoid direct sunlight for about 4 weeks, and not to use self-tanning agents or tanning accelerators. It is also important to avoid pulling out the hair for at least 3 weeks prior to surgery.

Hair removal is non-invasive and almost painless ! The treatment must be performed several times, depending on the type of hair.

2. SKIN REJUVENATION (about 5 treatments)

Rejuvenating IPL machines have an advantage over lasers in that they are much safer and do not cause burns.

The aim of this method is to reduce wrinkles and to tighten the skin, which affects the reconstruction of the structure of the collagen fibers in the skin. After the treatment the skin is more elastic, firmer and smoother.

The IPL method does not cause skin burns, is painless and does not affect your normal activities during or afterwards. We perform a series of treatments, from three to twelve, depending on the condition of the skin and the effects that we want to achieve.

3. TREATMENT OF CAPILLARIES (about 5 treatments)

With IPL technology it is possible to close capillaries and spider veins under the skin. This IPL treatment is completely safe. The head of the IPL tool is touched onto places where the capillaries are open. The IPL light passes through the skin, is absorbed by hemoglobin and this change in energy raises the temperature of the blood. This process causes shrinkage and permanent closure of the capillaries. The treatment does not leave scars, it is non-invasive and is a relatively short treatment.

The number of treatments needed depends on the number, color and depth of the blood vessels. For small areas 1-2 treatments may be sufficient; for larger areas the method can be used with 3-5 repetitions at 3 week intervals.

4. REMOVAL OF DISCOLORATIONS (about 5 treatments)

During this procedure, the light emitted by the IPL is selectively absorbed by melanin, which heats the cells containing the dye causing their destruction. Directly after treatment the skin is darker, but later the skin begins to gently peel during the next two weeks.

5. THERAPY FOR SHALLOW GENTLE SCARS, FOR EXAMPLE ACNE SCARS AND THE TREATMENT OF ACNE VULGARIS (about 5 treatments)

Laser therapy is effective in treating acne. The laser light causes a rapid healing of existing lesions and prevents the emergence of new ones (ie. it has an antibacterial, antiseptic effect) which reduces the signs and scars of acne. A fine-tuned beam of light penetrates deep into the skin and acts on the sebaceous glands to reduce the production of sebum.

6. THERMALIFTING OF FACE AND BODY SKIN.

If the specialist RF head is applied to the skin this sends relevant pulses to heat the skin in the correct way. Reversible denaturation, followed by stimulation, of collagen and fibroblasts (skin cells) occurs to produce new collagen. This technique heats the deeper layers of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It is very safe and does not damage the epidermis and dermis with a controlled heating to a temperature of 45°C. After the procedure, the client can immediately return to normal life.

The skin significantly improves from day to day, from month to month, and is rejuvenated and regenerated, as the collagen fibers are reconstructed.

Visible effects after surgery using RF around the face are:

• Lifting (elimination of flabbiness)
• tightens the cheeks,
• Elimination of so-called ?hamster" cheeks,
• Shrinks a hanging chin,
• makes a clear outline of the jaw-line to improve the contours of the face,
• Reduces wrinkles,
• Relaxes nasolabial folds,
• Reduces marionette line wrinkles,
• Reduces wrinkles around the eyes,
• strengthens the resilience of the skin,
• Improves blood circulation (gives better tissue nutrition)
• Relaxes the facial muscles (softer facial features)
