TOTAL BODY CONCEPT

If broken capillaries and veins have you feeling frustrated, rest assured Total Body Concept has the treatments for you. Both IPL and Laser Excel V are proven to reduce redness and pigmented skin spots, meaning you can walk out feeling more confident and more radiant in your own skin.

Laser Excel V
Is the most advanced aesthetic technology that combines two powerfully precise lasers to target and eliminate vascular concerns (redness, unsightly veins) and benign pigmented lesions (age spots, sun spots, discolouration) on the face and body.

How does Excel V work?
Your therapist will select one of excel V's two lasers and customise the treatment settings to target the colour and depth of your skin concern. Most treatments are finished in just a few minutes.

Is the treatment painful?
Treatments can feel similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. Depending on the procedure, a cooling treatment tip will be in contact with the skin to protect and provide comfort to the area.

Are there any side effects or any downtime?
Redness and/or swelling can be expected following treatment and will resolve within a few days. Treated brown spots will darken and slough off within 3 to 6 days. For full face treatments, swelling will peak 24 to 48 hours post treatment and usually resolves within a few days.

Photorejuvenation (IPL – Intense Pulsed Light)
IPL works by emitting a range of lightwaves that break down the vessel walls of the haemoglobin, causing them to fragment and be reabsorbed by the body, meaning any discoloured blotches in the face, neck, chest or hands will become much less visible.

IPL works on the following:

• - Lightening and reducing redness, rosacea, dilated blood vessels and “broken” blood vessels on the face, neck and chest.
• - Lightening and removing “sun spots”, “age spots”, and pigmentation on the face, neck, chest, hands and other areas of the body.

What’s the process? The process starts by applying a cold gel to the area to be treated, and appropriate eye protection will be provided. The smooth crystal surface of the IPL handpiece is gently placed for each pulse of IPL. You may feel a slight sting, like the snapping of a small rubber band, but people often report the first treatment to be the ‘zingiest’, with following treatments less invasive.
