Spots, redness, spider veins: the annoying signs of age

Age spots often betray our age. They appear naturally over time or are the result of too much sun exposure.

In addition, they can also commonly be accompanied by ​​redness (rosacea) or superficial spider veins. The treatment is however the same for all and extremely simple: a Skin Flash session (IPL laser, pulsed light).

The technique

A flash lamp is a powerful light (IPL laser, pulsed light) with a specific wavelength that will be absorbed by the targeted element: brown melanin for pigmentation spots and blood for vascular lesions.

The light will transfer the energy to the target which will be erased.

The skin is therefore purified from brown spots, spider veins and vascular irregularities.

Another advantage to this technique is the way it stimulates and awakens fibroblasts, the cells responsible for the synthesis of collagen and elastin. In addition to being a treatment that improves the overall appearance of your skin, it is also antiaging and treats the skin in depth and revitalizes it.

The session

It takes an average of 30 minutes for a Skin Flash session. The result is fully appreciable after 10 days.

All Skin Flash sessions (IPL laser, pulsed light) begin with a careful diagnostic examination of the skin to be treated by the doctor.

Once the diagnosis has been established, the treatment has been defined and consent has been given, the doctor’s assistant carries out an antiseptic cleansing of the skin and the application of an anaesthetic cream to make the treatment perfectly painless. A conductive gel will also be applied.
