Intense Pulsed Light - Hands

Service Description

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a highly effective, non-invasive treatment for reducing hyperpigmentation, sun spots, age spots, and liver spots on the back of the hands. By emitting broad-spectrum light that targets melanin, IPL breaks down excess pigment, allowing the skin to rejuvenate, improve texture, and restore a more even, youthful tone. How IPL Helps Pigmentation on Hands: Targeted Light Therapy: The IPL device sends light energy into the skin, which is specifically absorbed by the melanin in dark spots. This causes the pigmented cells to fragment. Destruction of Pigment Cells: The absorbed light is converted into heat, which destroys the excess pigment-producing cells without affecting the surrounding skin. Natural Exfoliation: After the treatment, the targeted age spots or sunspots often darken temporarily (looking like "coffee grounds" or "peppering") before flaking off naturally within 7–14 days. Collagen Stimulation: In addition to fading spots, the heat from the IPL stimulates collagen and elastin production, which improves skin texture, reduces crepiness, and firms the thin skin on the back of the hands. Treatment Details and Results: Number of Sessions: A course of 3–5 treatments is typically recommended for optimal results, spaced roughly 4–6 weeks apart. Results: Visible improvement can often be seen within 1–3 weeks after a session. Experience: The procedure is relatively quick (15-30 minutes) and is often described as a warm, stinging sensation, similar to the snapping of a rubber band. Downtime: There is minimal downtime, allowing for a return to normal activities immediately. Hands (Pigmentation) £75. 4 sessions - £275 _____ Any Questions or unsure?
