again, or to schedule waxing before holidays and important nights out! Energist
UltraPlus (VPL™) Variable Pulsed Light system has become the industry standard
for effective, long-term hair removal. VPL technology uses short, safe
controlled pulses of filtered light to remove unwanted hair quickly and
effectively, by affecting the ability of the hair follicle to regenerate,
leaving your skin feeling silky smooth. The flexibility of the UltraPlus VPL to
safely treat darker skin types has made it a leader in its field. VPL also
treats a range of other including wrinkles and fine lines, age & sun spots,
thread veins, rosacea, as well as acne management. Ask your beauty therapist at
The Cheshire Skin Clinic for more information about VPL treatments.
How does Energist
UltraPlus VPL technology work?
VPLTM technology is a revolutionary new technique
for hair removal and all aspects of skin rejuvenation. Using short pulses of
light energy, which can be varied in number, length and frequency, for example-
(2-15 pulses 3, 5, & 7 ms on time and 1-20ms off time, this allows the user
to have access to a total of 840 different
pulse options therefore making the Energist UltaPlus a very competitive
versatile system, this complex technology has been made simple with its windows
touch screen software which includes user friendly illustrations when using our
systems.
The
VPLTM systems emit light across a range of wavelengths, allowing a
greater range of more gentle treatments to be performed on virtually all hair
and skin types.
The
safe and effective VPLTM technology helps to remove and improve the
effects that age, hormonal activity, and over- exposure to the sun can have on
the skin using short, safe controlled pulses of filtered light to help improve
texture and tone, VPLTM leaves skin clearer and smoother.
Treating
a wide range of conditions from unwanted hair, to active acne, thread veins,
fine lines and wrinkles, age and sun spots and rosacea, VPLTM
technology is the way forward for beauty salons and clinics.
Generally
IPL technology can be used anywhere on the body, but caution must be taken when
treating near mucus membrane areas such as; the mouth (lips) eye sockets, and
genital areas.
