Is it Safe?
Many cosmetic procedures can come with adverse side effects and IPL
treatments do have a few minor side effects including slight redness of the skin, swelling and a sensation of soreness or sunburn, however these symptoms generally only last a day or two. Occasionally there can be some slight pigment change, which can make the treated area either darker or lighter, though this generally occurs in darker skin tones and should fade within a few weeks.
Some medications such as some antihistamines, antidepressants, antibiotics and contraceptives, for example, are light sensitive so make sure your clinician is fully informed.
All Griffins House of Beauty staff are thoroughly trained and qualified to operate IPL machinery which all meet TGA (Therapeutic Goods Australia) approval leaving you in the best hands to safely undergo your IPL treatment.
