IPL Rosacea Treatment

m22 iplOur M22 multi-application platform offers the very latest IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments, here at our Northamptonshire skin clinic.  

The M22 Universal IPL is classified as a medical device and is only available in elite skin clinics.

We offer IPL treatment primarily for rosacea, where intense pulsed light treatment can be helpful in calming the symptoms of redness and flushing. We often use this in combination with prescription skincare such as ZO Skin Health for best results.

The M22 IPL works by delivering controlled shots of light energy to the skin through a continuously cooled applicator. Settings are optimised depending on the patient’s skin type and the conditions being treated.

IPL treatment is carried out by former nurse, Liz Tanqueray, who has many years experience in carrying out laser and advanced skin treatments.

IPL promotes healing within the skin and can improve the symptoms of rosacea including:

  • Vascular lesions – spider veins, telangiectasia, broken capillaries
  • Skin tone – tackling redness and flushing

IPL Skin Rejuvenation FAQs

IPL light penetrates the skin and warms the deeper tissues, stimulating production of collagen and elastin as well as cell renewal. This can help the skin to heal from within.

When the light penetrates the tissue, it is absorbed by the blood chromophores that form vascular lesions such as broken capillaries and generalised redness/flushing. The IPL damages and destroys them to be then removed by the body’s metabolic system, leaving clearer and more youthful skin. This serves to improve poor complexion caused by rosacea.

IPL hair removal is carried out by Liz Tanqueray, a former nurse with many years experience of carrying out laser and hair removal treatments. IPL treatment for rosacea may be carried out by Dr John Tanqueray.

You may see results after just one session, but for the best outcome, we recommend a course of treatment. Each session builds on the progress made in the previous treatment, building up better results each time.

This will depend on the area being treated.

During your consultation, we will assess your skin, discuss your goals and provide advice on what to expect in terms of treatment and potential results.

The use of M22 IPL could cause redness, swelling, scarring, change of pigmentation.

IPL is generally described as a short-sharp sensation – a bit like an elastic band snapping against the skin. It passes very quickly.

M22 Universal IPL is a very versatile treatment, suitable for women and men, face and body. However, we are not able to offer it for patients with active infection, viral, fungal or bacterial diseases.

IPL is not suitable for tanned skin. Please avoid sun exposure (including sun beds/fake tan) before and during courses of IPL treatment.

IPL treatment is carried out at our clinic in Hardingstone, near Northampton, Northamptonshire. We are close to the M1 and  welcome clients from Coventry, Rugby, Leicester, Birmingham, London and further afield.
