IPL Acne Treatment
IPL Acne Treatment
Laser Technology for Clearer Skin
Clinically proven, non-invasive acne management using advanced IPL technology.
What Is IPL Acne Treatment?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) acne treatment is a safe, non-surgical therapy that uses broad-spectrum light to treat acne at its source. At Skintastic Lasers LTD, we utilise IPL laser equipment designed to reduce breakouts, target acne-causing bacteria, and stimulate the skin’s natural healing processes.
The filtered wavelengths penetrate the skin to destroy Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) bacteria, reduce sebaceous gland activity, and calm inflammation—helping to clear acne and restore healthy skin.
Key Benefits
- Targets and reduces active acne lesions
- Destroys acne-causing bacteria within the skin
- Calms inflammation and redness
- Prevents future breakouts
- Improves texture and reduces post-acne pigmentation
- Boosts collagen to aid scar healing
- Suitable for face, chest, back, and shoulders
Who can benefit?
This treatment is ideal for individuals suffering from:
- Mild to moderate inflammatory acne

A full consultation and patch test is required prior to treatment to ensure safety and suitability.

Pre-Treatment Advice
To ensure the best outcome and minimise risk, please follow the guidance below:
- No sun exposure, sunbeds, or fake tan for 2–4 weeks before treatment
- Cease use of retinoids, glycolic acid, and exfoliants 5–7 days prior
- No waxing, plucking, or depilatory creams for 1 week before
- Arrive with clean skin—no makeup, creams, or perfumes

Aftercare Instructions
Following your treatment, the skin may feel warm or appear slightly red. This is a normal response and usually subsides within 24–48 hours. Please observe the following aftercare:
- Avoid hot baths, steam rooms, and strenuous exercise for 48 hours
- Apply a cold compress for comfort if needed
- Use a mild, fragrance-free moisturiser
- Wear SPF 30+ daily, even on cloudy days
- No exfoliants or active skincare products for 5–7 days
- Do not touch, pick, or irritate the treated area
Results & Maintenance
Visible improvement is often noted after the first few sessions, with maximum results seen at the end of the full course. Your skin will appear clearer, smoother, and less inflamed. To maintain results:
- Follow a prescribed skincare routine
- Consider maintenance treatments every 2–3 months
