- Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
- Nose and cheek veins
- About 30 minutes per session
- Non-invasive

How it works
Our vascular lesion treatment uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). The veins and capillaries within a lesion absorb the light energy, while the surrounding skin absorbs very little.
The treated vessels break down and become less visible over time. Treatment is non-invasive and suitable for a wide range of skin types and ages, subject to assessment.
Targeted
Energy is absorbed by the vessel rather than the surrounding tissue.
Non-invasive
No incisions; most clients return to their day straight after treatment.
Assessed first
Each lesion is reviewed at consultation before treatment is planned.
Who it suits

Small blood vessels close to the surface of the skin, such as those on the nose and cheeks.
