Frequently Asked Questions

What is IPL?

IPL stands for intense pulsed light. Light has got different wavelengths, for example, red light has got a wavelength of 620 to 750 nanometers whereas green light has got a shorter wavelength. IPL is light that is filtered through a crystal so that only a few wavelengths of light get to your skin. These are typically wavelengths that will be absorbed by brown colour (for example pigment) or red colour (for example vessels with blood in them).

When these colours absorb light, they develop heat and become damaged. As a result, brown spots and redness on your face will fade.

What benefits do I get from an IPL Facial?

An IPL Facialis a popular treatment to improve signs of early again such as fine lines and wrinkles. It also gives your skin a mild lifting effect. Because it is a light-based treatment, it can improve redness or brownish pigmentation on your face at the same time and works well for acne.

Who is a good candidate for IPL?

IPL works for most people who wish to rejuvenate their appearance. It is also a good treatment option for dark spots and uneven skin texture. This makes it the ideal treatment for people with signs of skin ageing and dark spots or age spots.

Can IPL improve all types of pigmentation?

IPL does not work very well for a skin condition called melasma, a brownish type of pigmentation that is caused by hormonal changes in your body. It is therefore important that one of our doctors assesses your face carefully before any IPL treatment. This is to make sure that you are a suitable candidate for this treatment. If our doctor examines you and thinks that you have got melasma, we would recommend different forms of treatment for you.

Is IPL painful?

IPL delivers short pulses of intense pulsed light. Each pulse feels like a slight pinch and most people tolerate the treatment well. Should you experience any pain or become too uncomfortable, please let us know straight away so that we can apply a numbing cream.

How long does the treatment last?

An IPL Facial usually lasts 30 minutes. It is a simple and straightforward procedure and most people resume their daily activities straight after the treatment.

Do I need downtime after the IPL Facial?

Most people resume their daily activities straight after their facial. Mild redness on your face is fairly common but you can easily cover this with make-up.

How much does an IPL Facial cost?

An IPL Facial costs 250 NZD for the face and 350 NZD for the face, neck and decolletage. If you wish to add your hands, this will cost 75 NZD extra. Most people require 3 or 4 sessions for maximum results. Please check our attractive packages for more information.

Are there any side effects?

IPL is a very gentle treatment and side effects are very rare. You can experience some redness and maybe even mild swelling in your face after the procedure. But this can be covered with make-up. Occasionally, the skin can become a bit darker or brighter after an IPL Facial but this will usually resolve within a few weeks. It is very important that you use a high-quality, SPF 50+ sunscreen after the treatment to avoid any inflammation, redness or colour change of your skin.
