Laser Facials

A laser facial helps people that are looking to improve fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, pigmentation, acne scars, rosacea by using a focussed light energy to stimulate collagen and renew skin cells. It can address skin conditions such as ageing and laxity, pigmentation and sun damage, scars, redness and vascular issues and texture and pores.

Prior to treatment commencing our doctor will review your skin, medical history, medications and goals, and check that you are a suitable candidate.

Some medications, recent tanning, active infections or pregnancy may mean treatment is delayed or not advised. A patch test will be required beforehand to check how your skin reacts, treatment can be carried out 72 hours after this.

You will be asked to avoid sun exposure, self-tan, retinoids and exfoliants for a period before treatment.

• Cleansing: makeup and skincare are removed so the skin is clean.
• Photos: often taken to track progress.
• Treatment: the laser is passed over the skin in sections. Most people describe a warm, prickling sensation.
• Soothing: a calming product and SPF are applied at the end.

Your treatment usually takes 15 to 45 minutes, the number of sessions required will be discussed at your initial consultation but results can be seen in 1-4 treatments.
