Skin Rejuvenation
How Ellipse Skin Rejuvenation works:
Ellipse treatment works by directing well-controlled pulses of light into the upper Skin layer. The light is absorbed by two of the body's own natural chemicals-Melanin in the pigmented areas and Haemoglobin in the red blood.
Both these pigments convert the light energy into heat. This heat is used to destroy the parts of the cells in which the melanin is stored, and to damage the walls of the vessels supplying blood to the areas where vascular damage is seen. The technique has the name "Selective Photothermolysis"
The visable light produced by Ellipse Light systems are carefully controlled to produce the correct pulse length and right amount of energy to destroy the targets without damaging surrounding tissues.
The Ellipse Light Skin Rejuvenation system will treat and diffuse redness and pigmented disorders caused by sun-damage and also improve the skin texture.
Acne Clearance
Acne: Most of us experience acne to some extent during our lives, for many people it is a short term annoyance, but others develop more long-term and more severe acne.
Acne occurs when one of the skin's natural oils - sebum - is unable to leave the skin because the hair follicle is blocked. This may result in a blackhead or whitehead and can lead to the growth of bacteria below the surface of the skin. Inflammation can occur, and the rupture of an inflamed area can lead to scarring.
Medication can help reduce acne, But an Ellipse procedure in combination with prescription medication has been clinically proven to accelerate the healing process for acne.
Pigmented Lesions
Previous Common Treatments for Pigmented Lesions
- Make-up: Simple, inexpensive and painless but it is only a cover-up and requires an everlasting commitment to maintain the appearance desired by the client. The disadvantage is that psychological strain on the client is still present as the lesions have not been permanently removed.
- Surgery: historically, Surgical treatment of pigmented lesions has shown mixed success often with scarring as an adverse effect.
- Laser: can produce good results, however many lasers are specific to only one particular lesion.
