Service Description

Our Intense Pulse Light system by SkinBase emits beams of visible pulsed light onto the skin. This light is absorbed by melanin in the hair and turns into heat energy. Providing there is sufficient melanin in the hair this heat disables the hair follicle so it can no longer produce a hair. Unwanted hair can be removed from most parts of the body including legs, upper lip & chin, bikini line, underarm and back. Permanent hair reduction is only possible when the hair is in a particular growth phase (known as the anagen phase). Around 30% of hairs are in this phase at any one time, which is why for permanent hair reduction, most areas of the body will need between 6-10 treatments. A slight warm tingling sensation best describes the feeling experienced during the IPL treatment. This is minimised further by a specially developed cryo-handset that cools the area before and after the treatment. The SkinBase IPL is infinitely more comfortable than most conventional methods like waxing, laser and electrolysis and many other IPL or laser systems Prices start from £55 and we offer a reduction for courses. IPL treatments are tailored to suit each person so call Devine Skin to discuss your specific needs. Patch test is needed for new customers.
