IPL exploits the skins complex responses to powerful bursts of tailored light to treat a variety of skin problems and imperfections.

At your free consultation the Permalase therapist will recommend an appropriate course of treatment and give you a full cost breakdown. Successful IPL treatment depends on your skin and hair type, and the severity of the problem.

Example prices per session

Upper Lip £49 Underarms £110 Bikini £148 Forearms £120

The following pages will show you the exciting improvements you can expect for a range of skin problems.

Unwanted Hair

Shaving and waxing can be a thing of the past, leaving you with beautifully hair free skin

In this case the light pulses from the IPL machine are set so that the hair itself heats up and conducts its heat into the hair root which is killed off, removing the problem hair forever.

The hair has no nerves so no pain is felt, and the light is carefully set by the therapist so that the surrounding tissues are unaffected.

A course of treatments can permanently remove over 90% of unwanted hair and can leave the surviving hair roots so weakened that they produce only very pale, thin hair.
Treatment areas include:
•Underarms
•Legs and Arms
•Bikini Line
•Back
•Facial Hair

Thread Veins

Disfiguring and unsightly tread veins can be eliminated with a short course of IPL

Thread veins are the embarrassing result of
exposure to the sun over many years and are
also an unavoidable consequence of ageing.

They are unsightly and difficult to hide with
makeup. Fortunately it is possible, using IPL
technology, to selectively heat these fine
networks so that they are destroyed and
carried away by the body's natural processes.

Whether appearing on face neck arms or legs,
they can be completely or partially removed
by a course of IPL from Permalase.

You may suffer from one of a number of similar
venous imperfections that are also treatable
by this method - a consultation will show you
how we can help in just 6-8 treatments

Treatment areas include:
•Face
•Neck and Chest
•Legs and Arms

Goodbye Acne

If you suffer from embarrassing acne outbreaks IPL can treat and reduce the impact of attacks

For many sufferers acne seems impossible to
cure, with the recurring outbreaks and
resulting scarring making life a misery. These
problems can be dramatically reduced with
IPL treatment.

Appropriately tailored light pulses can be
made to kill off the bacteria that are causing
an active acne attack so that it is reduced in
duration and intensity. If caught early we may
be able to forestall an eruption altogether..

A further benefit is that the course can also

reduce the appearance of scars resulting from
previous attacks, leaving you skin clearer and
smoother looking.

Treatment areas include:
•Face
•Shoulders
•Back and Arms

Skin's Rejuvenation

The effect of time is inevitably written on our faces, IPL puts a new complexion on ageing

The passage of time is inevitably written on our
faces. The list to the right shows the
unwelcome signs of ageing that start to show
in our thirties and are usually only treatable
with invasive and expensive plastic surgey.
Fortunately IPL can help with all of these very
common problems. The deeply penetrating
light pulses reverse the loss of elasticity of the
skins collagen, reducing wrinkling and
improving the skins elasticity and tone. The
result- a winding back of the clock to a
younger looking you. A typical course of
treatment is 4 to 8 sessions, at one per month.
Treatment areas include:
•Sagging Skin
•Fine Wrinkles on Face and Neck
•Loss of Skin Tone and Smoothness
•Brown Age Spots on Hands, Face and Chest
