Intense Pulsed Light
PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL
Put an end to slow, messy and painful methods of hair removal.
Shaving, waxing, tweezing and hair removal creams have been replaced by hair removal in a flash.
Ellipse IPL uses short, safe beams of light to remove unwanted hair from all body sites in minutes.
How does it work?
Hair contains pigment (melanin) that absorbs the light and converts it into heat. The hair transmits this heat into the hair follicle, which is then destroyed and rendered unable to produce a new hair.
How long does a treatment take?
Treatment can take 10 minutes for the upper lip to 60-120 minutes for legs or back. Between 6 – 8 sessions are required.
Safety
The treatment is approved by the FDA, who have deemed it safe. AHSC is registered with the Healthcare commission, a governing body responsible for monitoring independent hospitals and clinics in the country.

THREAD VEIN REMOVAL
What is it?
A method of destroying the thread vein by focusing an Intensed Pulsed Light beam onto the vein which is absorbed by the hemoglobin. When the temperature reaches about 60-70C, the blood coagulates, and the inner cells of the blood vessels denature. This causes the vein vessel to collapse.
The vein then dissolves.
It’s for the removal of narrow thread veins (broken blood vessels that break through the skin’s top layer) on the face. Facial veins can be hereditary or occur as part of the ageing process, sun exposure or by a “flushing” skin condition known as rosacea.
How long does it take?
Quick. It takes only five or six seconds to treat a vein 3-4cm (1-2in) long.
Nose/cheek area: 30 minutes.
Frequency of treatments
Usually one to three treatments at three week intervals.
Single veins from £20
Cheek and nose £85 per session
SKIN REJUVENATION
(Intensed Pulsed Light)
Excellent for pigmentation, rosacea, high colouring, a collagen boost and acne.
The treatment works by directing well-controlled pulses of light into the upper skin layer. The light is absorbed by two of the body’s own natural chemicals - melanin in the pigmented areas and haemoglobin in the red blood.
Both these pigments convert the light energy into heat. This heat is used to destroy the parts of the cells in which the melanin is stored, and to damage the walls of the vessels supplying blood to the areas where vascular damage is seen.
The visible light produced by the Ellipse Light systems are carefully controlled to produce the correct pulse length and right amount of energy to destroy the targets without damaging surrounding tissues.
The Ellipse Light Skin Rejuvenation system will treat diffuse redness and pigmented disorders caused by sun-damage and also improve the skin texture.
