Rosacea Treatment Staffordshire

We offer a range of Acne treatments tailored to suit your skin from IPL and Laser to LED Light and Chemical Peeling. A complimentary consultation is required to advise on the best treatment for you.

Rosacea can be effectively treated using the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) mode of the Lumenis M22 machine. IPL uses controlled light in specific wavelengths to ease the inflammation, redness, spots and uneven skin tones caused by rosacea. IPL offers a gentle, long-lasting solution by gradually and naturally improving the skin’s appearance. The IPL procedure sends short, targeted bursts of light energy into the skin’s layers. Our technician can set the machine to target the haemoglobin in your blood vessels. Haemoglobin is a protein found in the red blood cells that carries oxygen around your body and gives blood its red colour. The light energy is absorbed by the haemoglobin and the blood vessel walls are damaged – in a controlled way. This triggers the body’s natural defence mechanisms to break down and then remove the damaged tissue. New cells grow which provide clearer skin. You will be able to return to your usual daily activities immediately after a treatment. What do I do next? Contact us at Avance Clinic to book a no-obligation, free consultation where one of our expert technicians will examine your skin and take a medical history. We can then discuss a programme of treatment with you and give you a patch test so that you can experience how IPL treatment feels. You can ask any questions and receive an assessment of how many sessions you may need to see the results you want. Many clients report improvements from the first session. As the body responds to the treatment, the skin will continue to clear.

The IPL technology in the Lumenis M22 machines sends light energy into the skin cells that contain deformed blood vessels and heats them up. It is non-invasive, safe and effective. The heat closes the vein’s walls, eventually causing them to disappear. IPL is very precise and can treat the specific blood vessels only, without affecting or damaging the surrounding skin. Our technician will apply a few pulses of light energy on each blood vessel source and the treatment is likely to take 10 to 20 minutes depending on the size of the birthmark being treated. Improvements can usually be seen from the first treatment and our clients report that there is minimal discomfort. You will be able to go straight back to your day after our treatment without delay making it ideal for people with busy lives. How do I find out more?

The Lumenis M22 offers a powerful solution for rejuvenating skin that is marked with age spots, sun spots and other forms of light skin pigmentation. Lumenis IPL technology treats the skin with short and powerful pulses of light energy, which penetrate into the skin layers below the surface where the extra melanin is gathered. The heat breaks down this pigment into tiny particles, which can be carried away by the body's lymphatic system and expelled in the natural way. Because IPL uses multiple wavelengths of light, it can target problem areas with precision and does not shoot light energy into areas of the skin that do not need treating. IPL can also be combined with one of the M22 machine’s other modes, the ResurFXtechnology, so that both skin pigmentation and fine lines can be treated simultaneously. IPL technology removes pigmentation and blood vessels while the ResurFX fractional laser stimulates production of collagen and elastin in the deeper layers of the skin to give more radiant, younger-looking skin.
