Settings matched to your skin
The Nordlys system's Selective Waveband Technology lets your practitioner fine-tune the light for your skin type and concern.
What is IPL treatment?
IPL treatment is a skin rejuvenation procedure designed to target a range of skin conditions and offer long-lasting results.
IPL stands for intense pulsed light. Put simply, it’s a flash of filtered light that stimulates the skin’s natural rejuvenation process. Melanin and visible blood vessels absorb the light and convert it to heat that breaks down the target cells. The skin around them is left largely alone, and your body clears away what’s left over the following weeks.
At our Upminster clinic, we use the Nordlys system, which narrows that light with Candela’s Selective Waveband Technology, so your professional can set the treatment for your skin rather than using one setting for everyone.
What can IPL skin rejuvenation help with?
- Sun damage – Age spots, also known as sun spots and Poikiloderma of Civatte, the reddish-brown discolouration on the sides of the neck and chest
- Fine lines and wrinkles – Fine lines caused by natural ageing and sun exposure
- Dull or uneven skin tones – Tired-looking, lacklustre skin
- Pigmentation issues – Brown spots, freckles and other pigmented marks
- Acne and scars – Active acne, by calming redness and inflammation and red or discoloured scars – for raised or pitted scarring, see our scar reduction treatments
- Vascular issues – Facial redness and rosacea and thread veins (telangiectasia) on the cheeks and nose
