Pigmentation & Capillaries

The Ellipse IPL is a clinically proven method of treating thread veins on the face, sun damage and sun spots on the face, chest and hands. IPL not only targets pigmentation and blood vessels but is also used for photo rejuvenation. It helps you keep a younger fresher look by improving your skin texture.

When melanocytes (cells that produce melanin) are overactive, dark patches of skin known as hyperpigmentation may appear. Other names to describe this condition are age spots, melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

The first sign that the skin’s melanin protection mechanism is overwhelmed is the freckle. Freckles are vertical clumps of melanin in the skin. With prolonged sun exposure, the skin will also develop horizontal clumping of melanin, which often appears in large patches on chronically sun exposed areas of the skin. The chest, neck and forearms are particularly vulnerable.
