Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is an advanced light-based technology. It works by delivering shots of light of many different wavelengths over the area being treated. Similarly to Laser treatments, for example for Hair Removal, light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair [melanin] causing hair follicles to heat up. This results in destruction of hair follicles. Different sets of configurations are used to treat various hair and skin types and conditions.  At Shines & Shimmers, we use the latest state-of-the-art European equipment (SPL and VPL).

While keeping your budget in mind we offer fast, comfortable, effective treatments for 

• progressive permanent hair reduction

• vascular treatments (damaged capillaries and spider veins; fine diffused redness)

• skin rejuvenation treatments (powerful collagen boosters resulting in fresher, younger, firmer looking skin)

• pigmentation treatments (sun damage; age spots; freckles)

Please note: Laser hair removal treatments, acne treatments, vascular treatments, skin pigmentation treatments can all be performed using this amazing technology. However different parameters are used for each treatment, for every patient.
