light-based skin treatments
Available from Energist, the iPulse Systems offer effectiveAcne management through the use of IPL. This portable and economical system offers the opportunity to deliver a range of treatments including Acne management with a limited investment.
Alternatively, Ecolite is a versatile IPL system that works by emitting a broad spectrum of light via a specially constructed xenon flash lamp and focusing optics. This non-laser technology converts the light to heat energy spanning across a broader range of wavelengths, producing benefits for a whole variety of skin conditions and
disorders.As the pulses of light are short in duration, clients will experience virtually no discomfort. Furthermore, the Ecolite the system filters light emitted from the flash lamp to remove harmful, shorter wavelengths including UV.
Skin tone and appearance can be improved, with Ecolite evening out and removing blemishes, marks and other skin
imperfections.Acne,Acne scarring and other scars on the skin can be effectively treated too, including conditions such as Rosacea and sun damage. This process is ideal for clients with active lifestyles as the procedure requires no downtime, they simply benefit from the effects of the proven procedures. Each treatment can be tailored to your individual client’s condition and skin type for the most effective outcome.
Another effective system is the Ellipse SuperLight SPT+, which offers skin rejuvenation,Acne clearance and the removal of facial thread veins for all skin types. This single intense pulsed light system can be used for many different treatments, such as treating sun-damaged skin, uneven pigmentation, age spots, large pores and diffusing redness and superficial veins in the face.
It’s easy and safe to use, simply enter client data via an on-screen keyboard, then client parameters such as skin type and degree of suntan are entered too before a treatment session is started. The system calculates safe, effective settings based on these parameters, and every treatment is automatically logged in the database.
Another option available is the SkinFirst Systems SuperMPL Combi, which features advanced IPL (known as multi pulsed light orMPL) and both monopolar and bipolar radio frequency. The machine features two handpieces with regular and large prisms to treatAcne, skin rejuvenation, pigmentation, veins and Rosacea using a combination of light and
sound therapy. Broad light spectrum options are provided within intense pulsed light and the advanced multi pulsed light treatments, using a number of sub pulses and delay options to protect the epidermis and to deliver a broader range of treatments.

LED (light emitting diode) coloured light therapy is also an effective way of using light to treat problematic skin. Using a selection of different coloured lights set at various wavelengths to penetrate to certain depths within the dermis, the LEDs stimulate the cells within the skin to promote a change. For instance, the change could be a decrease in bacteria or an increase in collagen.
LED light therapy is non-invasive and doesn’t use lasers, but still stimulates specific cell processes to create advanced skin renewal, making it ideal for those looking to treat conditions such asAcne, Rosacea and pigmentation.
Angela Barbagelata-Fabes of Carlton Professional says: “Used in combination with other treatments or separately, colour therapy treatments stimulate the skin’s cells to facilitate change. The inclusion of four colours (red, green, blue and yellow) using LED lights and set at varying wavelengths offers a wide range of benefits.”
It is the selection of benefits offered by the different colours of light that makes LED treatments so versatile and popular. Therapists are able to treat a multitude of skin conditions all from one system that has a selection of different coloured lights.
