IPL Treatment for Skin Rejuvenation The IPL Light has specific wavelengths that target different skin concerns. For example, shorter wavelengths of light are used to treat the blood supply to the sebaceous gland which reduces oil and sebum production which in turn reduces acne breakouts. These shorter wavelengths are also effective at treating pigmentation, sun damage and getting rid of spider veins on the face. OUR TREATMENT To stimulate new collagen and elastin production longer wavelengths are used which are similar to those that are used for IPL hair removal. These wavelengths provide complete skin rejuvenation by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, skin tightening as well as improving the texture of the skin. All IPL treatments require a consultation and patch test to discuss client skin concerns and treatment suitability. The patch test is required to see how your skin responds and to determine the settings needed for a full IPL treatment. Patch Tests are required 7 days before treatment Book Now OUR TREATMENTS WHAT TO EXPECT IPL uses light energy to target a certain colour in your skin. When the skin is heated, your body gets rid of the unwanted cells, and that gets rid of the thing you’re being treated for. Unlike lasers, an IPL device sends out more than one wavelength of pulsating light. It can treat a range of skin conditions at the same time. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS HOW LONG DOES IT LAST? Are you Suitable for IPL Laser Treatments? Unfortunately, IPL Light treatments are not suitable for all skin types. This is why we prescribe Obagi Medical Skin Care as we can achieve all the amazing benefits of IPL but using skincare at home in a similar time period of 14 weeks to transform your skin. HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE IT DONE ? Please see the Fitzpatrick scale below to see suitability for IPL. IPL can only treat Fitzpatrick 1-3 for Pigmentation and Red veins IPL can only treat Fitzpatrick 1-4 for skin rejuvenation IS IT PERMANENT? To stimulate new collagen and elastin production longer wavelengths are used which are similar to those that are used for IPL hair removal. These wavelengths provide complete skin rejuvenation by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, skin tightening as well as improving the texture of the skin. JOIN OUR MEMBERS CLUB More Details IPL is similar to a laser treatment. However, a laser focuses just one wavelength of light at your skin, while IPL releases light of many different wavelengths, like a photo flash. The light from IPL is more scattered and less focused than a laser. IPL penetrates down to the second layer of your skin (dermis) without harming the top layer (epidermis), so it causes less damage to your skin. You begin to see a change in your face within a week to 10 days and on the other treated areas of your body within 6-8 weeks. To successfully rejuvenate your skin with IPL, we usually 3-6 appointments, one month apart. Book Now Aftercare

Fractional Laser Resurfacing We believe that everyone should have at least one Fractional laser treatment a year to deeply exfoliate your skin and to give your skin that instant tightening, stimulate your collagen fibres and kick start your elastin production. OUR TREATMENT It’s one of the most advanced treatments to resurface and regenerate your entire skin. It will improve overall skin tone and texture, whilst taking years off your appearance. The bonus is that it's suitable for all skin types from Fitzpatrick 1-6! It works on every layer of the skin down to the dermis to stimulate the skin cell turnover, stem excess oil flow in the face, kickstart the collagen and elastin formation, resurface the skin's surface and rejuvenate the skin's appearance. Book Now OUR TREATMENTS WHAT TO EXPECT The treatment uses an Erbium:Yag Laser to create tiny thermal holes in the skin stimulating a healing process and a deep ‘peel like’ effect. It works on every layer of the skin down to the dermis to stimulate the skin cell turnover, stem excess oil flow in the face, kickstart the collagen and elastin formation, resurface the skin's surface and rejuvenate the skin's appearance. What does it do? If aging, acne, or too much time in the sun has left your face with blotches, scars, wrinkles, or lines, laser skin resurfacing may help your skin look younger and healthier. Laser skin resurfacing removes skin layer by layer with precision. The new skin cells that form during healing give the skin a tighter, younger looking surface. The procedure can be done alone or with other cosmetic surgeries on the face. Book Now FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS HOW LONG DOES IT LAST? On average, clients can expect laser skin resurfacing results to last anywhere from 3-5 years from having the procedure done HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE IT DONE ? The length of time between your laser resurfacing treatments will depend on our recommendations, your skin type, and other factors. In general, the skin needs about four weeks between laser treatments to recover and be ready for the next session IS IT PERMANENT There are no treatments out there that is a permanent solution as we can’t stop the ageing process. After a course of laser resurfacing we always recommend regular annual top up treatments. Many people do notice immediate results on their skin which continue to improve over the next 12 months. JOIN OUR MEMBERS CLUB More Details Is laser resurfacing worth it? Hell yes!! Laser resurfacing is a gold standard advanced treatment. It significantly decreases the appearance of fine lines and open pores in the face. It can also treat loss of skin tone and improve the texture if you have scars, acne scars or sun damage. Which is better chemical peel or laser resurfacing? Chemical peels do reduce fine lines, open pores and rough skin. Lasers tackle more noticeable skin conditions such as texture and skin tightening, and deeper lines and wrinkles, as well as all the peel benefits. We recommend one Laser Resurfacing treatment once a year to deeply exfoliate and maintain healthy glowing skin. What is a better treatment Laser Resurfacing or Microdermabrasion? Without a shadow of a doubt, Fraction Laser Resurfacing, it works on a much deeper level and has so many more benefits besides exfoliating the top layer of the skin. Microdermabrasion is an outdated, old fashioned dinosaur in the world of aesthetics and cannot compete with the results of a Fractional Laser Resurfacing treatment. Once you have had a Fractional Facial, you will never enquire about a microdermabrasion again and you will never need to. Book Now Aftercare

Over time, the results of a light peel can last for about 6 months. HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE IT DONE ? We would recommend that you book a course 4-5 weeks apart of peels to ensure your skin recovers and heals clear and glowing IS IT PERMANENT Research has shown that peels help to manage acne, the results vary based upon how many sessions you book, we recommend a course of 10 sessions. JOIN OUR MEMBERS CLUB More Details Is the Cleansing Peel better than Microdermabrasion? Traditional microdermabrasion can be very abrasive on the skin and cause microtears which can trap bacteria, dead skin and trap oils in the pores; this can result in further breakouts or congestion. Microdermabrasion is a short term solution, with results lasting roughly 48-72 hours. The Cleansing Acne peel gently eats away at the dead skin cells and unclogs the pores, whilst rebalancing the skin's moisture levels. It is non-abrasive and consists of no downtime. You will see an instant and lasting glow to the skin, that is made even better by entering an initial course of treatment to encourage the healthy skin cells to rise to the surface of the skin. Can anyone have a cleansing peel? Yes, we can adapt the peels to all skin types, including rosacea. The peel is suitable for all skin tones and is more superficial than the Obagi Blue Radiance Peel, so more suitable for sensitive skins. We even do a hydrating cleansing peel, that boosts the natural moisture levels in the skin. Caution: Not suitable for pregnancy. Depending on the skin concern being treated an application of 2.5-10% Lactic acid peel is applied during the facial. It is important to remember that when treating skin concerns, we use the correct product strength and application to suit your skin and get the best results for you. It's effective in purifying and assisting to control the appearance of congested and breakout-prone skin, as well as brightening dull and dehydrated skin. This unique and gentle peel helps to achieve visible improvements, leaving the skin looking radiantly healthy and refreshed. Book Now Aftercare

Body Microneedling BODY TREATMENTS Micro Needling is one of the popular and effective treatments for overall skin rejuvenation and is suitable for all skin types and all ages. It’s really popular for improving texture and reducing scars and acne scars on the face and body. Open pores are dramatically minimised which allows the skin to look and feel smoother. For anti-aging, it's very beneficial as it stimulates new collagen and elastin which reduces all fine lines and wrinkles. If you love micro-needling try the most talked-about treatment of 2021 and experience our radio frequency micro-needling! Book Now What does Micro Needling do for your skin? Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that has endless clinical trial to prove its effectiveness. It involves pricking the skin with microscopic sterilized needles. The small wounds cause trauma and the body goes into a healing response to produce more new collagen and elastin. This heals the skin and makes skin look younger and healthier. You might also hear it called collagen induction therapy aswell. For faster results try the our RF micro needling How long does it take to see results from micro needling? The needles create “micro-wounds” which trigger your body's wound healing processes to heal your micro wounds immediately. Whilst mild skin tightening is experienced within a few days the most dramatic results will not be visible for about four to six weeks post treatment as new collagen and elastin is formed. Is micro needling worth the money? The benefits make microneedling well worth the spend, once you try it you’ll be hooked. The treatment boosts collagen and helps to tighten and lift skin on the face. Microneedling are also ideal for treating acne scars, fine lines, and even stretch marks. For faster results see our RF Micro Needling What is better Microneedling or laser? There are benefits to both, laser treatments can often provide quicker, more dramatic, long lasting results than microneedling treatments. However, there is significantly more down time with laser that can last 5-7 days post Laser treatment. With Micro needling there is little or zero down time and both ultimately stimulate more collagen and elastin. We recommend that RF micro needling is significantly better than micro needling. Is Micro Needling painful? Our medical device isn't overly painful at all and requires no numbing cream at all. There is a vacuum on our device which makes the treatment more comfortable and there is hardly any redness or down time. Contraindications If you have any underlying health condition and or are taking any medications other than the contraceptive pill please email info@fijiskinclinic.co.uk to seek advice and treatment suitability before booking. TREATMENT CARE Do not use topical agents that may increase the sensitivity of your skin such as retinoids, exfoliants, topical antibiotics or acids 5-7 days prior to your treatment. Knowing what to expect on the day of your microneedling treatment will make this procedure as comfortable and anxiety-free as possible for you. As with any cosmetic skin treatment, it’s important to look after your skin following a microneedling procedure for best results. Book Now Aftercare
