VPL
Three times more powerful than IPL alone, the Ultra Plus is the latest technology in the war against anti ageing –successfully treating Pigmentation, Thread Veins, & stimulating Collagen for Skin Rejuvenation.
The Ultra Plus treatment offers a safe, non surgical treatment for many skin conditions often brought about by age or over-exposure to the sun. It is also very effective in reducing and controlling active acne and associated problematic skin.
VPL can treat virtually any skin type and is suitable for the following conditions:
Sun & Age spots on the face, hands or body
These conditions usually appear in later years. They are caused by an excess amount of melanin, the pigment which determines our hair and skin colour. Melanin absorbs the light energy from VPL and heats up quickly, whilst the surrounding skin remains cool. The heat means that the particles of melanin break up into smaller particles, that are then removed by the body’s natural waste processes, leaving skin clear and smooth.
Thread Veins, Spider Naevi, Cherry spots, Rosacea
Where small veins become visible on the skin’s surface.
Light energy is absorbed by the blood vessels that make up these imperfections. This absorption process breaks down the vessel walls. Effective VPL treatments allow the body to recognise these broken vessels as waste and removes them naturally.
Wrinkles & Fine Lines, Skin Texture & Open Pores
Collagen is the substance in our bodies that keeps our skin looking youthful and smooth. As we age, our bodies naturally produce less and less collagen, resulting in the appearance fine lines and wrinkles. The light from the VPL stimulates cells in the body called fibroblasts to produce more collagen. The new collagen moves outwards to the skin’s surface resulting in a smoother texture, smaller pore size and reduced fine lines and wrinkles.
Acne & Acne scarring
Acne is caused by excess sebum; oil naturally produced by the body which clogs up pores and causes irritation. Over long periods this can also result in acne scarring. VPL improves both active acne and acne scarring by destroying the bacteria that causes the irritation. Acne is healed significantly following a course of treatments and skin texture and tone is improved as the VPL initiates further collagen production.
