Skin Rejuvenation

Restore Your Skin’s Radiance with IPL Skin Rejuvenation

At Peppermint Clinic, our IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatment is designed to restore your skin’s youthful glow and address a range of common skin concerns. This non-invasive treatment uses powerful light pulses to rejuvenate your complexion, improving skin tone, texture, and overall appearance. If you’re looking to reduce signs of aging, sun damage, pigmentation, or even fine lines, IPL Skin Rejuvenation could be the perfect solution for you.

What Does IPL Skin Rejuvenation Treat?

Our IPL treatment is effective in addressing several skin concerns:

Uneven skin tone and pigmentation
Sun damage and age spots
Fine lines and wrinkles
Redness, flushing, and broken capillaries
Enlarged pores and skin texture irregularities

IPL Skin Rejuvenation works on the face, neck, décolletage, hands, and other areas that are prone to sun exposure and premature aging.

The Process: What to Expect

During your IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatment, light energy is delivered to the deeper layers of your skin without damaging the surface. The procedure typically lasts 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. You may feel a slight warming sensation, but most patients find the process comfortable with minimal downtime.

After the treatment, your skin will gradually begin to regenerate as collagen production increases. Within a few weeks, you’ll notice a more even skin tone, reduced pigmentation, and a smoother, firmer texture.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

While some patients may notice an improvement after just one session, optimal results are usually achieved after a course of 3 to 6 treatments, spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions can also help prolong your skin’s youthful appearance over time.

Long-Lasting Results

Following your IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatments, you’ll enjoy long-term improvements in skin clarity, texture, and radiance. However, as with any treatment, results are best maintained with a good skincare routine and sun protection. At Peppermint Clinic, we recommend using a high SPF sunscreen and keeping your skin hydrated for long-lasting results.

It is most often used on forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines. It can also be used for other areas such as the mouth and neck whilst also being an approved treatment for migraine relief and excessive underarm sweating – Check out our menu to read more about our advanced injectable aesthetics treatments.
How long until I see visible results?

You will not see a result straight away. It takes 2-3 days* to begin working, and approximately 2-3 weeks* to see the full effect. If after 3 weeks you are not 100% satisfied, get in touch with us and we can book you in for a top-up treatment free of charge. *Alluzience® begins working within 24 hours so visible results may be seen sooner than with standard botulinum toxin-a products.
How long do the results last for?

Botox® and Azzalure® generally last 3-4 months. There will certainly be patients in which it lasts longer, in the 4–6-month range, or shorter, in the 2-month range. It is also common for first time users to notice that it may not last as long initially but may last longer after the second treatment. Alluzience® is an advanced botulinum toxin-a new wrinkle-relaxing injection launched by Galderma, the world’s largest independent dermatology company). It starts to work sooner than other standard botulinum toxin brands and can last up to 6 months. Individual lifestyle choices may affect the longevity of the treatment e.g. people who exercise a lot or are very expressive may find the effects fade faster.
What products do we use at Peppermint Clinic?

We use Botox®, Azzalure® and a fairly new product called Alluzience®. Alluzience® has the potential to last up to 6 months so you can reduce the number of treatments you undergo per year, but it is not suitable for all areas. If you have questions, please contact us to discuss the individual products in more detail or book a free consultation to come in and have all your questions answered and discuss your suitability for the treatment, your goals, and expectations in more detail.
Does it hurt?

Pain is very subjective and personal - how we feel pain varies a lot from person to person and from time to time, e.g. studies have shown that women rate pain significantly higher in menstrual and premenstrual phases than during the rest of their cycle. A small pinch or sting that you would expect from inserting a small needle into any part of the body and you may feel a brief stinging sensation. The site of injection also influences the sensation of pain e.g. injections around the lips might feel more sensitive than those on the forehead.
Pre-treatment do’s & don’ts

Schedule your appointment at least 4 weeks prior to any special event or holiday to allow time for complete healing and optimal results. Reschedule your appointment if you develop a rash, cold sore or blemish in the treatment area. You should avoid taking blood thinning medications and anti-inflammatory medicines like ibuprofen for the 2 weeks leading up to your treatment. Also avoid aspirin, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba, ginseng, St. John's Wort, and Omega 3/Fish Oil supplements. You may wish to consider taking arnica tablets, available from most pharmacies, for one week prior and one week post treatment can help reduce the risk of swelling and bruising. Avoid alcoholic beverages at least 24 hours prior to treatment. Alcohol may thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising. Discontinue Retin-A two (2) days before and two (2) days after treatment.
Post-treatment do’s & don’ts

Avoid any strenuous activity or exercise for 24 hours after treatment. Avoid aggravating the injection site by rubbing or massaging the area. After 6 hours, you may gently wash the injection site but not before then. Avoid lying down for the first 4 hours post treatment. It is best to avoid alcohol for 24 hours post treatment. If possible, do not restart any blood thinning medication for several days after your treatment. If you are taking prescription blood thinning medication, please contact us to discuss your treatment options or book a free consultation to discuss this aspect of your treatment further. Avoid heat, tanning, self-tan, and tanning beds for 72 hours post treatment. Avoid any facials, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion for a minimum of 10 days following your procedure. If you are unsure about how long to wait before having a certain procedure, contact us or ask your practitioner during your appointment. Using a good sunscreen will protect the longevity of your treatment. Wearing sunglasses to reduce squinting will protect the longevity of your treatment.

The Science Behind It

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) targets both pigmentation and vascular lesions by emitting light at specific wavelengths. The light penetrates the skin’s surface and is absorbed by melanin (responsible for pigmentation) and haemoglobin (found in blood vessels). When absorbed, the light is converted into heat energy, which breaks down the unwanted pigmentation and closes off tiny blood vessels beneath the skin. At the same time, IPL stimulates collagen production, which enhances skin elasticity and improves overall texture.

Breaking it Down

IPL Skin Rejuvenation works by using pulses of light to address spots, redness, and fine lines. The light breaks down brown spots and closes small blood vessels, while also boosting collagen to smooth out your skin, making it look fresher and younger.
