Does it hurt?
It is a very quick, comfortable treatment. You may feel a slight tingling sensation during the fruit peel and the IPL can be mildly uncomfortable, feeling warm and like a quick pin prick.
The illumiFacial is described as a natrual filter for your skin. It is a four-stage treatment that combines skin care and IPL. This quick and simple rejuvenating treatment dramatically improves skin tone and appearance, helping your skin feel and look it’s best as if lit from within. This scientifically proven and advanced skin treatment is a restorative and illuminating facial that gives your skin long-lasting luminosity and a brightening of skin tone for optimal skin health.
The four stages of this treatment include:
Cleanse - The first step in achieving clear, healthy, radiant skin will involve a deep cleanse using a specialist formulation to remove any impurities.
Tri-Fruit Acid Peel - Following a deep cleanse, a unique Tri-Fruit Acid Lynton Fruit Peel will be applied to your skin, for anywhere between 3 – 10 minutes. This peel resurfaces skin texture and decongests pores, priming the skin ready for stage 3 of illumiFacial®.
Lynton IPL - Post fruit peel, your skin will be at its optimum condition for the application of the IPL treatment. This works by both stimulating collagen and targeting any discolouration on your skin, e.g. freckles, pigmentation, vascular lesions, general redness. In most cases, the results are instant, providing you with dramatically clearer, firmer skin.
Hydrate & Protect - To help maximise the results your of your illumiFacial® treatment, a trio of specialist serums will be applied to your skin post-IPL, helping soothe, regenerate and protect your skin.
It is a very quick, comfortable treatment. You may feel a slight tingling sensation during the fruit peel and the IPL can be mildly uncomfortable, feeling warm and like a quick pin prick.
The number of treatments varies but results can be seen after just one session. We recommend a minimum of 3 and up to 6 treatments, at 4-6 week intervals.
This treatment is great for anyone whose skin is congested, discoloured or shows visible signs of ageing with the aim of improving the appearance, texture and health of your skin. We'll carry out a full consultation to determine your needs and tailor your treatment plan dependent on your concerns.
Your skin may be red and slightly swollen immediately after treatment, but this will subside very quickly. You may also have some patches of dry skin and in very rare cases, a small blister can form with some temporary lightening or darkening of the skin. However, most people experience absolutely no side effects and any reactions usually disappear within a few hours, leaving the skin feeling and looking radiant.
