How Long Does It Take For Your Skin To Heal After IPL Skin Rejuvination?
IPL skin rejuvenation is a popular treatment for improving the appearance of the skin and reducing the signs of aging. The treatment uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to target and damage the underlying layers of the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
After an IPL skin rejuvenation treatment, the skin may be slightly red and swollen, and you may experience some mild discomfort or sensitivity. This is normal and should resolve within a few hours to a few days, depending on the individual. Most people can return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment, although it's best to avoid exposing the treated area to direct sunlight for at least 24 hours.
The full effects of an IPL skin rejuvenation treatment may take several weeks to become apparent, as the skin continues to heal and produce new collagen and elastin. In general, the skin will continue to improve over the course of several months, with the final results typically visible after about 3-6 months.
Overall, the healing time after an IPL skin rejuvenation treatment varies depending on the individual and the severity of the treatment. Most people can expect to experience some redness and swelling, which should resolve within a few days, and the full effects of the treatment may take several weeks to become apparent. By following your healthcare provider's instructions and protecting your skin from the sun, you can help to ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
How Does IPL Skin Rejuvenation work?
IPL skin rejuvenation is a popular non-surgical treatment for improving the appearance of the skin and reducing the signs of aging. But how does it work?
At The Mind Body & Soul Colchester, we use intense pulsed light (IPL) to target and damage the underlying layers of the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells.
During the treatment, a handheld device is used to deliver pulses of light to the skin. The light is absorbed by the underlying layers of the skin, damaging the targeted cells and triggering the body's natural healing response. As the skin heals, it produces new collagen and elastin, giving the skin a more youthful and radiant appearance.
One of the key benefits of IPL skin rejuvenation at The Mind Body & Soul Colchester is that it is a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime. Most people are able to return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment, and the results are often noticeable within just a few days.

Before Treatment
We will examine your skin at your initial consultation to better understand your unique skin concerns. Our skin care experts will then advise you on the best course of treatment for your skin. With IPL Skin Rejuvenation, we will need you to carry out a skin patch test before treatment. Without this, we cannot treat you even if you have had previous laser or IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatments elsewhere.
During your initial IPL Skin Rejuvenation consultation, we will run you through any pre-treatment care. This will include avoiding sun exposure before and after your treatment. If you have a holiday planned, please let us know during your consultation so we can schedule your appointments around it. Direct sun exposure before or after IPL Skin Rejuvenation can cause serious damage.
During Treatment
IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatments at the Mind Body and Soul Colchester are relatively quick, depending on the size of the area being treated. This also applies to other laser treatments, such as SHR Super Hair Removal. First, we prepare the skin by gently cleansing it to remove any dirt or makeup. We will then apply a room temperature gel to the skin while providing you with protective eye goggles.
Once treatment starts, it will be relatively painless. Most of our IPL Skin Rejuvenation clients describe the treatment as similar to an elastic band snapping against the skin. Any discomfort is short-lived and is followed by a feeling of warmth. Our IPL Skin Rejuvenation specialists will be there to reassure you throughout the entire process, so you can rest assured in the hands of fully trained experts.
After Treatment
Immediately after IPL Skin Rejuvenation at our Colchester clinic, it is normal for the skin to be a little red. Our expert aestheticians will finish the treatment by applying the prescribed SkinCeuticals antioxidant, serum, moisturiser and SPF to your skin. This will be followed by any other products that our skin care specialists recommend. This is an essential part of aftercare, and it is important that you also avoid any prolonged sun exposure.
You may experience slight swelling after your IPL Skin Rejuvenation treatment. This is completely normal and will settle down after 24-48 hours. As the heat breaks down pigment, it will rise to the skin’s surface forming scabs, crusts and possible flaking. This will naturally heal or fall off within 7-10 days.
