Laser Skin Treatment in Derby

The M22™’s Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and ResurFX laser technologies produce improvements you will love in the look and feel of your skin. But, they can also be combined in one session to deliver the unique Lumenis Photofractional Solution.

This is a complete skin rejuvenation system that can tackle the early signs of skin ageing, but also bring dramatic improvements for mature skin. In one treatment it can work on brown spots of uneven skin pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, broken blood vessels, red patches and rosacea.

How does the Lumenis Photofractional Solution work?

By using IPL and ResurFX technologies in one session, both skin pigmentation and texture can be treated at the same time.

Lumenis IPL technology removes unwanted redness, brown spots and broken blood vessels from the skin, while the ResurFX fractional laser stimulates the production of new collagen and elastic fibers in the deeper layers of the skin. ‘Fractional’ means that it only affects a fraction of skin because the laser light is delivered precisely to the problem area. It is the stimulation of collagen production that is the key to more radiant, youthful-looking skin.

Who can benefit from the Lumenis Photofractional Solution?

In younger clients it can work on acne scarring and traumatic scarring. In more mature clients it can be used on lines and wrinkles, old acne scars, sun damage, pore size and generally creating fresher, more youthful skin.

What is the Lumenis Photofractional treatment like?

Clients tell us the treatment is easy and the cooling tip built into the handset, used by the technician, adds to the comfort. The IPL is described as feeling like a rubber band snapping against your skin and the ReSurFX feels like a tapping or slight prickling.
An average session lasts between 15-30 minutes, depending on what is being treated. There is very little down-time and clients may experience a slight redness or very minor swelling for a few hours but they are able to go about their normal activities with little chance that anyone will see they have had anything done.

After one session, you may begin to notice improvement in skin tone and pigmentation. Typically, about three sessions are needed to have visible improvement in the skin texture. Best results are typically achieved after three to five sessions at two to six week intervals. However, you may continue to see improvements for up to six months following the treatment.
