IPL Laser Skin Therapy

IPL is great for scar reduction, vascular conditions, skin tightening, improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles.


IPL laser skin therapy is a relatively new technology in the treatment of various skin problems, but we have found to be one of the best for getting results.

A laser treatment is simply a specific and focused single wavelength of light – an intense pulsed light (IPL) – that is able to induce powerful changes and improvements in the skin with relatively low risk and downtime.

IPL laser skin therapy can be used for the treatment of most skin-related concerns, including scar reduction, vascular conditions, skin tightening, improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles.

Before a treatment is started, you need a consultation and patch test, please book this in to help us work out the best treatments for you.

SkinBase Treatments

The SkinBase IPL laser system can be used for a wide range of treatments including hair reduction, photorejuvenation, acne and vascular lesions. IPL is different to laser based therapies that only produce a single wavelength of light and can therefore only treat a specific condition.

SkinBase IPL Acne Treatment Full Face

The light also stimulates collagen production in the area helping to improve the appearance acne scarring, and is a safe and effective way to treat acne breakouts.
