ELOS Skin Rejuvenation Treatments Available at Palm Clinic

ELOS/ Intense Pulsed Light treatments for facial pigmentation and redness from Palm Clinic are best done over the winter months when there is no tan. ELOS IPL is the treatment of choice at Palm Clinic for facial veins, rosacea, pigment spots and collagen stimulation.

ELOS IPL (electro-optical synergy) uses a unique combination of radio frequency and intense pulsed light (IPL) to target the brown spots or red veins while leaving the surrounding skin free from potentially harmful side effects. Using gentle pulses of two targeted energies means better results with lower overall energy output — assuring the highest level of safety and comfort. Treatment with ELOS IPL produces a slight tingling feeling, and on the most sensitive areas of the skin, patients may only feel a quick, light pinch. Side effects are very rare, and ELOS technology assures a higher comfort level than other laser technology.

The IPL arm of ELOS targets melanin and oxyhaemoglobin to produce the effect of improving pigment spots and broken capillaries in the face, neck and hands. This is augmented by the bipolar radiofrequency arm of ELOS which targets the deeper dermis to further stimulate collagen and assist with the treatment of rosacea and pigment change.

Permanent reduction of unwanted hair through ELOS IPL can also provide a long-term solution to waxing or shaving. At Palm Clinic they have two laser systems for effective long- term hair reduction – Coolglide (1064nm NDYAg laser), and Elos IPL. They are therefore able to treat all skin types and dark hair colours.

Palm Clinic has several years’ experience of this technology with full strength medical IPL systems. ELOS IPL with the medical strength SRA head has additional benefits for many patients but Palm Clinic will decide at the initial communication which technology will best suit or whether a combination of technologies would work more efficiently. Their technicians are fully trained and certified. They understand how to use IPL equipment safely, identify skin conditions and how to avoid hazards resulting in damaged skin. ELOS procedures require no sedation. The average procedure takes less than 30 minutes to perform. Any redness or dark brown spots on the face can be covered with makeup immediately. Following the procedure, patients can return to work or daily schedule.
