Laser Skin Treatment in Derby

What causes skin pigmentation?

The word ‘pigmentation’ refers to the natural colouring of hair and skin. Special cells called melanocytes produce a substance called melanin which gives our skin its colour. When the cells that produce melanin become damaged or unhealthy, it affects melanin production. If your body produces too much melanin, your skin – or patches of it – get darker. If your body does not make enough melanin, your skin gets lighter, or develops lighter patches.

Exposure to the sun without skin protection can cause uneven pigmentation of your skin. Dark spots – known as age spots or sun spots – often appear on the face, hands and other parts of the body that have had the most exposure to the sun’s damaging UVA rays.

How does the Lumenis M22™ IPL work on pigmentation?

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 ResurFX™ technology, 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.

How do I find out more?

Contact us to book a no-obligation consultation where we can explain the procedure in detail, answer any questions you have and give you a patch test so you can experience how the IPL feels on your skin.  Laser treatments may not be suitable for everyone and our technician will take your full medical history to ensure that the procedure will be safe and effective for you.

I've been going to Carly for years. I would recommend her to anyone and wouldn't go anywhere else. She's professional, knows what she's talking about, caring and funny.
Carly is absolutely amazing at what she does. I have had 6 sessions of laser hair removal for my underarms and the difference is insane. I used to have to shave everyday because my hair grew so quickly and now I hardly ever need to. There are no more dark patches either which I love and the skin is so smooth. I would never go anywhere else as Carly is so friendly and gives you invaluable advice. She definitely knows what she is doing and to be able to pay as you go without a higher price tag attached is amazing. I 100% recommend Avance Clinic.
Amazing results, wish I’d done it years ago. I’ve had 8 sessions on legs, bikini and underarms and have zero re growth. Totally recommend Avance Clinic and Carly. Thank you 😊

I’ve recently completed my 6th session with Carly, and I wish I did this years ago! The results from laser is amazing and has boosted my confidence with areas I’ve been self conscious about for years. Carly is also amazing during the experience, she’s very knowledgable about the whole process and makes you feel very relaxed - even whilst working on intimate areas. Every appointment is lovely and I always leave with a grin on my face after having a good laugh and a catch up with Carly. If you’re even thinking about laser, book it now and with Carly! ☺️
I have had sun damage/pigmentation on my face for years and I was starting to feel like it was really aging me, a friend had mentioned Avance Clinic so I looked it up and made an appointment on line for a consultation. Carly was very easy to talk to and answered all my questions, and was very knowledgeable so I instantly felt at ease. I had a skin test and booked in for the treatment.I’m so happy to say that my skin looks so much clearer and my concern areas have faded away, I’ve also had compliments that my skin look fresh! Thank you Carly… very satisfied client here.
Carly was very thorough getting rid of my Cherry angiomas, very happy 😊
I have used Advance clinic for 18 months. Carly is very caring, professional and yet has such a great sense of humour. I have had amazing results from my course and I will continue to use Advance Clinic. Thank you.
100% recommendedOn my 4th hair removal session and the results are amazing. Carly makes you feel very welcome. Love her sence of humour and she's professional with alot of knowledge as she talks you through the procedure. Lovely Lady. Lizzi B
great service, amazing results and really professional love it!
Before starting this journey I have done a lot of research and I am so happy I found this clinic in Derby. I started my laser hair removal treatments 6 months ago and the results I have so far are unbelievable. Lana is very knowledgeable and professional, she explains everything (knows everything about laser hair removal) and is very patient with me during the treatment. Also, as a bonus, every time I go to my appointments with Lana it feels like going to visit a long time friend for nice chat. 🤗
The clinic has a great modern and up to date look. All the staff are very knowledgeable, friendly and the prices very competitive, as a guy I was a bit in doubt about going, but I'm so glad i went to Avance clinic.I was fully made aware of the procedure, and treatment course length, and was quite amazed at what they offer. So happy with my treatment. Thanks alot Avance clinic.
Finding avance clinic has been one of the best things that happened to me this year. I am an frican lady with very stubborn dark marks on my face and have been looking for clinics that performs laser skin treatment on african skin, I have gone to many clinics in the uk but I get rejected because they do not have experience with my skin type. luckily for me that was not the case with avance clinic, they welcomed me with open arms and took the challenge, I have been undergoing q switched laser treatment and I must say they are the best. The care and attention I received is unbeatable, clean enviroment and very attentive staff. I have started seeing results after 4 treatmenst and can not wait to finish the whole treatment and get the final results, thank you so much Avance clinic for waking up my self confidence and making me a new woman.
I am very appreciated so much to Carly that she is very kind and patient , and she remove off my tattoo eyebrow lines that I always minded. She also helped me erase the cherry spot on my face. Boundless merit. I am very grateful to Carly.Highly recommended.
I have recently visited the clinic for laser treatment on my face and I honestly can not recommend this place enough!! Carly is very professional, she will only recommend what she thinks is going to be the best outcome and she absolutely does not want to take any more money than she has to! Really lovely, welcoming place and I'm looking forward to coming back soon 😊
Response from the owner: Lovely review ♥ thanks chick x
The clinic has a great fresh and modern look, the staff are very friendly and the prices very competitive, as a guy I was a bit sceptical about going, but the therapist made me feel at ease, and any misgivings soon went, I was made aware of the procedure, and treatment course length, and was quite amazed at what they offer. Very happy with my treatment. Would definitely recommend.
Response from the owner: Lovely review many thanks ♥
Booked to have a few thread veins zapped on face and from the very first phone call with Deborah then Sarah on Reception, the experience has been really positive.Carly explained everything and is very knowledgeable, really knows her stuff. Importantly, she didn't recommend i book several treatments as I probably wouldn't need them, very refreshing to have such honesty and the reason I will go back to Avance. Veins gone by the way!
Response from the owner: Thankyou Elizabeth , from us all xx
Fantastic Clinic. All the Ladies i met were brilliant. They put me at ease from the phone call, to entering the clinic. The ladies are down earth and there is nothing too big, too small or even too embarrassing you cant discuss with them. I am so excited to start my journey and seeing more of you ladies. Thank you so very much!
Response from the owner: Thankyou Lena xx
Had a laser treatment with the lovely Sarah Bailey, she looked after me and made sure I was well looked after. Would highly recommend!
Response from the owner: We love treating you hun xxx
An amazing experience right from the start. Carly is a true perfectionist and passionate in her work. I was sceptical about the results but they are amazing, money very well spent, can’t wait to move onto other areas. Goodbye tweezers and razors!
Response from the owner: 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I couldn’t praise these ladies enough, their lovely, energetic and make you feel more than welcome. I’ve had laser hair removal and thread vein removal on my nose and cheeks, The results for me where instant, I was absolutely amazed and beyond happy with my treatments. The prices are fantastic and the treatments are explained to you in a professional manner and followed through in the same way, with after-care advice provided. If you want to feel like a truly valued customer and be given a professional friendly service, I would highly recommend Avance Clinic.
Response from the owner: A lovely review thank you so much x
Hi, just thought I'd share my exciting news that for the first time in years I haven't had to shave this morning!!!! Thank you thank you!!! Cannot wait for my next session. You are my super hero!!
Response from the owner: Yay!!! Loving this xx
Great experience with the laser, fast results compared to IPL used previously. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Response from the owner: Thanks Rachel glad your happy xx
Carly is professional, caring, honest, knowledgeable and a really lovely lady. From the moment you have contact with her or meet her, youre put totally at ease and know youre in safe hands.i felt extremely vulnerable coming in to show somebody something about me i wanted changing, but Carly subtly coached me through the experience and supported me the whole way. Im rubbish with pain and Carly was incredibly. I barely felt a thing and she had all the best tips for a painless but super result.After leaving my first session i felt disheartened that my hair looked the same, however 2 weeks later over half of the hair has fallen out!!! It is a phenomenal result and im over the moon, and im only at the beginning of my journey with Carly and Avance.Im so thrilled to have been recommended Carly at Avance, its honestly changed my life.The treatment is worth every single penny and is priced at an absolute bargain. Keep an eye out for her monthly offers too, theyre bloomin brilliant!Honestly recommend Carly and Avance to anybody wanting genuine, affordable, permanent hair removal with super results.
Response from the owner: Thanks Pia, always lovely to see you xx
I’m amazed at the results my friend has received, i came with her on her 1st session and I couldn’t believe it,I’m so so shocked from her 1st session to now,after just 4 sessions the results are amazing. Carly is amazing so welcoming and professional and really easy to talk to.....brilliant service highly recommend
Response from the owner: Lovely feedback thank you x
Results are amazing, even after my 1st session. Now started another area of the body. I always look forward to my sessions, and see more and more results each time I go. Clean and professional place. Can't wait to get my whole body done. So wished I found avance clinic earlier. Would of saved me lots of money on pointless hair removal systems that aren't permanent. Carly you are a magician. Xxx
Response from the owner: Thanks for your lovely comments xx
Carly is so nice and makes you feel at ease. She's very professional, she really knows what shes talking about and explains everything to you. I've already noticed the difference after a few treatments which is great!
Response from the owner: Thanks Katrina, xx
Excellent service. Treatment quick, clean and effective. Good results. Highly recommended.
Response from the owner: Thanks xx
Carly is so professional and friendly person. She always puts me at ease at every session. I have had 6 sessions and I have seen amazing results. I am so impressed and hair removal has boosted my confidence. Thank you Carly. You are the best..xx
Response from the owner: Glad to be of service! Happy that your treatments have given you your confidence back xx
If I could give 6 stars I would! Carly does the most thorough job that I have ever experienced. I FLY FROM THE NETHERLANDS EVERY 6 WEEKS JUST SO I CAN HAVE CARLY I AM NOT JOKING! She is lovely, professional but personable and her results are amazing. I have laser hair removal. Can't recommend this place enough, you will not regret it, the results are better than I expected, bye bye hair for good!
Response from the owner: Thanks Victoria, Love treating you xx
Carly is so friendly and makes you feel so comfortable that it feels like you have known her for years. I cannot recommend her and her services highly enough. The results after only 4 sessions of laser hair removal have been unbelievable and I am barely seeing any regrowth. I have had laser hair removal before but never had these results. Carly is clearly very passionate and knowledgeable and I would say Avance is easily the best place in Derby for any hair removal services. Thank you so much x
Response from the owner: Thanks Samantha. So happy that your happy xx
I was a little nervous at first but Carly made me feel very comfortable the laser treatment is absolutely amazing I’ve noticed the results in a very short space of time can’t recommend enough
Response from the owner: Thanks Richard, I'm glad your happy with your results. It's fab isn't it!! xx
I've been going to Carly for a number of years now, she is friendly professional and reasonably priced. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services to anyone.
Response from the owner: Thanks Jane. Its always a pleasure to see and treat you xx
An amazing lady and experienced professionalCarly is like a magician, literally hair today gone tomorrow. I’m so glad I found Avance Clinic on Facebook. Carly gives great advice before and after treatments. Carly is a perfectionist to the latter. Always makes me feel special and I love her sense of humour and her drive. I look forward to my painless treatments (I have two going on) She is so experienced and explains every detail. Our skin care is her passion. I would highly recommend Avance Clinic and Carly all day long. Thank you so so much for giving me confidence again.
Response from the owner: Hair magician! Love it! thanks for your lovely feedback xx
Carly is an absolutely wonderful person, totally professional and you can see the passion she has for her work. I've only had one treatment, which is painless for those who were worried about that, but can see the difference already, so pleased I found Carly and Avance. Would definitely recommend 🙂
Response from the owner: Lovely review many thanks for you kind words x
What can I say ? As a person who used to do laser aesthetics I find Carly to be a very professional and friendly lady. Her work ethic is first rate and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Avance and Carly for your hair removing needs and all done in lovely relaxed surroundings
Response from the owner: Thanks Mhairi for your lovey comment. We look forward to seeing you soon xx
Carly gave me a warm friendly and progressional approach the minute I walked through the door. I had a thorough and enlightening consultation where she totally put me at ease about my treatments. I came out knowing everything I needed. First session yesterday and I'm delighted to have found Avance. Would definitely recommend!
Response from the owner: Thanks Joanne, we're happy that you're happy you found us xx
Carly is really professional, welcoming and friendly. Her prices are very reasonable and she is obviously very passionate about what she does. I've now had 4 sessions and the reduction in hair regrowth has been amazing, hardly anything there now and much finer! Would 100% recommend.
Response from the owner: Thanks for your kind words Sarah xx
After having a failed course of treatment elsewhere using a different machine I thought that was it and I was going to be left worse off than before. Then I came across Carly.I had a consultation and had my first treatment this week.The main thing I can comment on is that Carly is extremely knowledgeable in what she does, enthusiastic, passionate and most of all genuine!She has reinstalled faith in me that what I want can be achieved and I look forward to reviewing again based on the results, but so far the service and information I have received is excellent! Thank you! Abi.
Response from the owner: Thanks Abigail, it's always a pleasure to see you at the clinic xx
Just finished my course of Lazer and wow!! An amazing experience to be hair free under arm, certainly going back for other areas. Extremely well managed practice, highly qualified and very relaxed atmosphere.
Response from the owner: Lovely feedback thank you x
Wonderful service givenCarly is a very professional and lovely person. She makes sure you're cared for and understand the treatments.I had a free consultation and went for a package after seeing great resultsI look forward to getting more treatments done in the futureI highly recommend her and suggest that you try for yourselves.
Response from the owner: Thanks Asea xx
The discomfort of waxing and electrolysis trarments on unwanted hair prompted me to try laser hair removal. Carly welcomed me at Avance clinic answering all my questions which reassured me prior to the treatment. I have had a trial and 2 sessions so far. The treatment has not been painful and is such a relief compared to previous methods l have had. I am amazed with the results so far. Payment is per session or as a block which is really flexible. The clinic itself is convenient, with parking and really comfortable and welcoming.
Response from the owner: Thanks Nicola xx
After having my consultation with Carly where she answered all my questions and made me feel at ease whilst I had a patch test, I had my first treatment yesterday.Carly was professional, welcoming, friendly and made me feel at ease again whilst she completed the treatment. The treatment didn't take as long as I thought and the pain lasted seconds a lot less then waxing.Can not wait for my next session and to see amazing results.
Response from the owner: looking forward to seeing you xx
I've been going to Carly now for almost 2 years and I can not recommend her enough. She's such a skilled Beautician and her customer service is incredible. I always feel comfortable and relaxed whenever I visit her and can not imagine going anywhere else. Avance Clinic really is the best in Derby. Thank you Carly!!
Response from the owner: Thanks Ayesha, always lovely to treat you. Looking forward to seeing you soon xx
