Welcome to EKO Beauty IPL Studio where I specialise in advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments, located in the heart of West Didsbury my studio is your go-to destination for effective skincare solutions.

What is IPL?

IPL is a cosmetic treatment which uses pulses of filtered light to target specific parts of the skin it is a safe treatment with no down time. Because of the versatility of the light filters, IPL can be used to treat many different skin concerns. It is an excellent choice for treating acne, pigmentation, sun damage, thread veins and other vascular lesions. It is also a popular hair removal method and it can be used to help reduce scarring too.

Eko Beauty IPL Studio uses the Skinbase IPL system which has been voted the No.1 IPL system used by skincare professionals in Professional Beauty Magazine.

For each of these skin concerns, IPL targets a different structure within the skin, so how does it affect each one?

Hair Reduction

IPL emits broad-spectrum light pulses that penetrate the skin and target the pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles. The light is converted into heat, which damages the hair follicle without harming the surrounding skin. Repeated treatments result in weakened follicles, causing the hair to grow back finer, slower and eventually stop growing altogether.

It can be used all over the body and typically requires several sessions (usually 6-8) spaced a few weeks apart to see the best results. IPL works best on light to medium skin tones with darker hair, it may be less effective on very light or grey hair.

Rosacea/Redness

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterised by facial redness, visible blood vessels, and sometime acne-like bumps. Dealing with this condition can be challenging, especially when it comes to redness and skin texture, but IPL offers a promising solution.

IPL delivers pulses of broad-spectrum light that target hemoglobin, the pigment in blood. When hemoglobin absorbs this light energy, it heats up and causes the blood vessel walls to coagulate (or thicken and close). This process damages the vessel lining just enough that the body recognizes it as no longer needed and naturally reabsorbs it over time.

Since rosacea often leads to visible blood vessels near the skin’s surface reducing the presence of these vessels can greatly improve the skin's appearance. Breaking down these vessels also reduces overall redness and flushing, as the blood flow near the skin’s surface is minimised. IPL can also stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and making it smoother. This can be particularly helpful for rosacea patients who experience rough patches or thickening of the skin.

Overall, IPL can be a game-changer for managing rosacea, offering substantial relief from symptoms and improving the appearance and health of the skin.

Acne/Acne Scarring

IPL is proven to be extremely effective in the treatment of Acne. It targets Cutibacterium acnes (formerly Propionibacterium acnes), the bacteria primarily responsible for acne. This bacteria thrives in the oily, low-oxygen environment of clogged pores, where it contributes to inflammation and acne formation.

IPL emits yellow, green and red light in a series of short pulses, this light energy penetrates the skin and kills the bacteria. By reducing C. acnes, IPL helps to alleviate one of the main contributors to acne and reduce active breakouts.

The heat generated during IPL treatments also decreases the activity of the sebaceous (oil) glands. Allowing the skin to regain balance, unclog the pores and reduce the oily skin that contributes to acne. The light energy from IPL also penetrates the skin promoting the release of anti-inflammatory mediators. These mediators help calm the skin, decrease redness, and reduce the swelling in active acne lesions making them less visible and promoting faster healing.

Scarring caused by acne is a deficit collagen in the specific region where acne has taken place. After the acne has subsided the affected region needs collagen to heal. IPL also stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin, which supports healing and strengthens the skin barrier and improves its texture. Stronger skin is more resilient to inflammatory triggers, helping to manage future breakouts and inflammation.

Pigmentation

Pigmentation refers to the natural colour of the skin, hair, and eyes, which is determined by the amount and type of melanin produced by melanocytes, specialised cells located in the skin. Hyperpigmentation is a common skin and harmless skin condition characterised by darkened patches or spots on the skin due to an excess production of melanin.

IPL is very effective for treating hyperpigmentation issues, such as sunspots, age spots, and melasma. It’s non invasive and selectively targets these darker areas without harming the surrounding skin.

IPL emits broad-spectrum light that targets melanin, the pigment responsible for dark spots on the skin. When the light energy from IPL is absorbed by the melanin, it converts to heat, which breaks down the pigmented cells. The heat generated by IPL breaks down clusters of pigment into smaller fragments. The body then removes these fragmented pigment particles naturally either through its lymphatic system, or they may rise to the surface and flake off, leading to a more even skin tone and reduction in discolouration.

Vascular Lesions

Vascular lesions are abnormal growths or changes in blood vessels that can occur in various forms and can affect the skin or deeper tissues. They include Telangiectasia, Spider Veins (Broken Capillaries) Thread Veins and Cherry Angiomas.

IPL is an effective treatment for these lesions, it works by emitting light at specific wavelengths that are absorbed by hemoglobin, the red pigment in blood. This absorption allows the IPL to specifically target blood vessels within vascular lesions without harming the surrounding skin. When the IPL light is absorbed by hemoglobin, it converts to heat. This heat causes the blood vessel walls to heat up and coagulate (clot), effectively damaging the targeted blood vessels.

This controlled damage seals off the blood vessels, which are then gradually reabsorbed and removed by the body over time. As a result, the vascular lesions become less visible or disappear entirely.

Photo Rejuvenation

IPL is widely used for photo rejuvenation, which refers to the treatment of skin damage caused by sun exposure, ageing and other environmental factors. IPL improves photo rejuvenation by targeting a variety of skin concerns, including pigmentation, vascular lesions and skin texture issues, so kind of a combination of all of the above!

It can also stimulate collagen for improved texture, improve skin tone and clarity and minimise pore size and skin texture irregularities. By regularly stimulating collagen and targeting damaged cells, IPL treatments can also slow down visible signs of aging and improve skin’s resilience against environmental factors.

Ceramide Total Solution – Moisturizing Cream

Can a simple moisturizer visibly improve your complexion, tone, and radiance? Our results

are so amazing that we invite you to take before and after pictures to see the evidence for

yourself!

Ceramide Total Solution is an advanced formulation of 6 perfectly-balanced super botanicals,

antioxidants, and concentrated ceramides that help your skin glow with the same radiance

you do.

Our ideal-for-all-skin-types formula is designed to be used in combination with our Broad

Spectrum SPF50+ PA++++ to protect your skin from life’s irritants and strengthen skin cell

building blocks to rejuvenate your appearance no matter the environment.

Why is it different?

Ceramide Total Solution supports and moisturizes skin cells using three different techniques

for a truly knockout complexion:

 Antioxidants protect skin while essential fatty acids – the building blocks of cell

membranes – promote regeneration, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and help prevent

premature aging.

 Potent ceramides and their precursors help your skin retain moisture and even

generate its own protective barrier.

 Powerful anti-inflammatory botanicals sooth and calm all skin types, including

sensitive and acne-prone skin in all genders.

This powerful plant-based combo is transported deep into your skin via a light, creamy lotion

that hydrates without feeling heavy and provides essential hydration with no greasiness or

residue for a serious radiance boost and a jolt of confidence that will stay with you all day

long.

What does it do?

Our long-acting formula is designed to promote a firmer-looking complexion and moisturized

glow that is resilient against environmental stressors like smog, dry air, and pollutants

(though, sadly, not your noisy neighbours).

Ideal for even the most sensitive, breakout-prone, or oily skin as a daytime anti-aging

moisturizer for everyone, regardless of gender. It’s also perfect for use at night to refresh

your skin while you rest, so you wake up with a radiant complexion, ready for the day ahead.

How to use:

We recommend using Ceramide Total Solution both day and night as the final step in your

skincare regime. For added protection from the aging effects of the sun, we recommend

supplementing with our Broad Spectrum SPF50+ PA++++ before facing your day!

Are you ready for your skincare routine to give you real results? Experience greatness with

our dual-action broad-spectrum SPF protection and anti-wrinkle moisturizer designed to

protect from both the immediate effects of sun damage (caused by UVB rays) and long-term

damage that shows up as wrinkles, fine lines and sunspots (caused by UVA).

No one is immune to the aging effects of the sun, regardless of gender or skin tone. Our

unisex formula supports your skin’s long-term health while also giving your complexion

everything it needs for a radiant aura as captivating as you are. From plumping collagen to

peptides and hyaluronic acid for deep hydration and moisturizing, this is one part of your

daily routine you won’t be able to live without!

What makes it different?

Clinically formulated with nine powerful botanicals, peptides and other clinically tested

ingredients, our broad-spectrum SPF formulation provides all-in-one sun protection,

hydration, and a collagen boost that promotes elasticity and healing for sensitive skin.

Our SPF50+ PA++++ designation indicates extremely high levels of sun protection against

both UVB and UVA rays. UVB rays burn skin and are a bigger risk during summer months,

but UVA rays are present year-round even on rainy days and lead to premature aging,

sunspots, fine lines, and wrinkles. Moisturizers with PA++++ designations are especially

protective against UVA rays.

Here is what you can expect:

 Light-as-air texture without a hint of chalkiness or grease.

 Enhanced skin cell regeneration and extremely high levels of UVA/UVB protection.

 Soothing antioxidants and essential fatty acids (the building blocks of cell

membranes!) that reduce fine lines and wrinkles while calming sensitive and acne-

prone skin.

 Fast-absorbing plant-based hydration ingredients like Echium and Hyaluronic Acid

that provide long-acting moisturization to give your skin a smoother, firmer and

plumper look and feel.

 Collagen-boosting ingredients that promote elasticity and your improve your skin’s

environmental defenses against pollutants, even in densely-populated cities.

 Super-strength SPF formulation that provides some of the highest levels of sun

protection against both UVB and UVA of any moisturizer on the market.

How to use

Use as a luxurious last step in your morning skincare routine at least 30 minutes before sun

exposure to protect your complexion from anything your day throws at it. We recommend

use in combination with our Ceramide Total Defense Moisturizer for the ultimate daily skin

support regimen.
