Treatment Information

  • What is the difference between IPL and laser?

    The main difference between IPL and laser is the wavelength of light produced. Lasers produce light with one specific wavelength whilst IPL uses an entire waveband. Different wavelengths penetrate the skin to different depths so using IPL is like using a group of lasers in a single treatment. This means that IPL can be used for a wide range of treatments, including hair removal, photorejuvenation, pigment reduction, vascular treatment and acne treatment.

    What do IPL Treatments feel like?

    Generally treatments have a very small level of discomfort and the majority of clients would say it is less painful than waxing. You may feel a slight pinch such as that of a snap of a rubber band.

    Is there any down time or restrictions on activity after IPL?

    You can return to work the same day and resume regular activities. Treated areas must be kept protected from the sun for 6 weeks after treatment.

  • Pigment Treatment

    Hitech Skin offers a treatment to reduce the colour of pigmented lesions caused by sun damage. A doctor’s letter confirming that no skin cancers are present is required before commencing treatment. One treatment is often enough to see stunning results, but 2 or 3 at 4 to 6 weekly intervals may be needed for optimal results. Sun damage typically seen on the backs of hands, forearms, décolletage and legs will respond well.

    Vascular Treatment

    Hitech Skin offers a treatment which will reduce facial vascular blemishes like the fine thread-like vessels found on legs. Often at least 4 sessions, 4 to 6 weeks apart are needed to obtain optimal results.

    Hair Reduction

    Hitech Skin offers permanent hair reduction. This means that in most cases the majority of hair will not return after a short series of treatments. The hair that is going to disappear for good will usually stop growing within this initial course, with any residual hair growth being finer, softer, lighter in colour and regrowing at a dramatically slower rate. This residual hair growth can be left alone, or you can have occasional maintenance treatments at yearly intervals. Typically 6 to 10 treatments are required.
