SKIN REJUVENATION (IPL)
About Sun Damaged Skin
Everybody loves the sunshine! It’s good for the soul and the immediate effects it has on the skin such as a tan and healthy glow are much desired. However, in the long term, sun exposure decreases the production of collagen, which in turn causes damage to the skin making it feel wrinkled and coarse and looking red and tired.

Skin Rejuvenation using Safe Light Technology (IPL)
Our Skin Rejuvenation treatment rejuvenates the skin using industry renowned light based technology, without the need for injections used in similar procedures. All parts of the skin and body can be treated using the safe, visible light in Ellipse’s technology, leaving you looking younger and fresher with the skin feeling smoother by removing age spots, sun damage and diffused redness. Uneven pigmentation is also reduced, many female patients reported that it becomes easier to apply make up following treatment.
This unique technology carefully filters the light to ensure that only clinically relevant wavelengths reach the skin, meaning optimum safety in the procedure. Naturally, the body responds to this safe and visible light to absorb it to the targeted area.
Suitable for All Skin Tones
The skin rejuvenation is based on light absorption in melanin and haemoglobin, therefore treatments are more effective on light skin that is not sun tanned at the time of treatment. However, Ellipse has pre-programmed settings for each treatment so all skin tones can ensure they will receive the correct energy output for their complexion.
Age spots contain a substance called melanin, and diffuse redness contains a substance called haemoglobin. When cells containing lots of these substances are targetted with the IPL light, they disappear almost immediately.
Painless and Short Skin Treatment
A full-face treatment should take less than 20 minutes and the skin will look rejuvenated after 1-3 treatments, depending on the severity of treatment required. The procedure is painless, although darker skin may experience a sensation similar to that of the warming feeling one has after a day on the beach.
There is no other post-treatment care required other than a sunscreen (minimum SPF30) for a month following treatment.
