What is Photo Rejuvenation of the skin?
Photo Rejuvenation is a cosmetic treatment designed to produce younger and healthier looking skin.  As they age, most people find their complexions impacted by sun damage, time, and lifestyle choices.  Photo Rejuvenation is a series of Intense Pulse of Light treatments that improve many of the unwanted effects of ageing.

It has long been known that light therapy has the power to stimulate skin cells on a molecular level, assisting the production of collagen and growth factors which help the skin cells grow and rejuvenate. The SIPL Angelite Facial treats age spots and pigmentation from sun damage, small veins and capillaries which make the skin appear red, pink or purple. Broken blood vessels in the skin can leave the skin with a sallow appearance. SIPL Angelite Facials will help clear the unwanted pigments in the skin, thereby improving its colour and texture.

The Angelite uses filtered non-coherent light to selectively destroy melanin-laden cells, blood-filled capillaries and hair roots in a process called Selective Photothermolysis. The Angelite Intense Pulse of Light technology can also be used in selective killing of diseased (various pre-cancerous lesions), aged and sun damaged (actinic keratosis) or infected cells (propionibacterium acnes complicating acne).

Patient Journey
Before any treatment, you will meet with your Doctor or Nurse Practioner for a consultation to discuss whether this is the right procedure for you. Your Doctor/Nurse will take a medical history and will ask specific questions. It is important to notify your Doctor if you are pregnant, if you are trying to become pregnant, if you are breastfeeding and also if you are taking any medications. Your Doctor will also discuss with you your motivations and expectations. It will be explained what anti-wrinkle injections can and can't do for you and what type of results you can expect.

The treatment
First the treatment area will be cleansed. An intense pulse of light is applied in a series of gentle pulses over the treatment area. Without damaging the skin, the light penetrates through the skin and is absorbed by tiny capillaries or blood vessels visible through the skin, or is absorbed by any pigmentation, sunspot or freckle or hair follicle present. The intense pulse of light is transformed into heat energy, which causes damage to the blood vessel or pigmented area and through a natural process, the body clears the debris away. The treatment may vary from 10 to 30 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated. Most treatments are painless, but specific treatments may feel almost like a rubber band snap to the skin. Topical or skin anaesthetic may be applied if required. The cooling head on the Angelite makes treatments with this technology almost completely painless.
