Due to lifestyle factors and sun damage many people start to suffer from premature ageing which starts from their early thirties. Sun damage can result in lines and wrinkles accompanied with dull, rough skin with enlarged pores, along side mottled skin tone and areas of abnormal pigmentation.
At Dr Sknn we use the Lynton Lumina which is a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System, which is also used by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, with specific hand pieces in order to address premature ageing in skin types I-IV by promoting fibroblast activity and subtly restructure collagen within the skin.
In specific this IPL - Light Assisted Skin Rejuvenation treatment is appropriate for people who wish for a more even skin tone and show mild to moderate signs of sun damage and photo-ageing. The benefit of non-invasive skin rejuvenation with intense pulse light is to allow busy people to return to daily activities due to the short treatment down time in addition to quick treatment times. By utilising specific wavelengths and hand pieces the light absorbed in treated areas is converted to heat thus destroying excess melanocytes and telangiectasia allowing for a more even skin tone, additionally a reduction of pore size, improved skin texture, luminosity, fine lines, superficial wrinkles, pigmentary and vascular changes occurs in addition to an improvement in mild to moderate acne and mild acne scarring resulting in a smoother and more youthful complexion.
