SRA
Pigmentation Reduction
Skin Pigmentation Treatment
This is one of the worlds most advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) laser technology which uses a combination of IPL and RF (Radio Frequency) that is not only highly effective but very safe.
The Skin Rejuvination Advance (SRA) delivers a broad range of wavelengths to the skin allowing for a number of skin conditions to be treated working in two ways. The first is for darker pigmentation, in which the laser is attracted to the discolouration and draws it up and eventually out of the skin. The second is for any unwanted redness. In this case the laser is attracted to the haemoglobin and heats the small veins until they retreat back into the skin.
The heat that is delivered will also stimulate the skin cells to regenerate new collagen, improving skin tone and texture. This along with the removal of visible vessels and pigmented areas, leads to a smoother, vibrant and younger looking skin.
Skin conditions that are successfully treated with SRA include:
- Age spots
- Freckles
- Melasma
- Birthmarks
- Brown and red spots
- Broken blood vessels
- Uneven skin tone
- Fine lines & wrinkles
- Acne & rosacea
Because who doesn’t want a younger, brighter, more even complexion.
What Can I Expect?
SRA treatments can be performed on any area of the body with the focus being areas that are exposed to the damaging effects of sunlight. Other than the face, common target areas are the neck, décolletage, shoulders, arms and hands.
During the procedure clients can feel a heat sensation that varies with the area and energy setting though it is minor due to the sapphire cooling tip which also adds to the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. There may be a mild sunburnt feeling afterwards with some patchy pink areas or redness and no downtime is needed so normal activities can be resumed immediately.
As the SRA is a colour correction procedure it is important to avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least 2 weeks prior to the treatment for optimal results.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
During your consultation we will establish a treatment plan to best suit your individual needs and concerns. While great improvement is seen from one session generally 3 treatments are required to achieve optimal results.
A healthy glow is seen immediately after the first treatment with the pigmented areas becoming progressively darker until it eventually exfoliates away.
A gradual and cumulative improvement of skin tone and texture is achieved with the darkest pigment being targeted first before any redness can be reduced.
The SRA can also improve fine lines and wrinkles and is a useful tool against acne as the laser can kill bacteria that leads to severe outbreaks.
A new industry standard
Elōs Plus
Skin Rejuvenation Advance (SRA) is an Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment and is powered by Elos technology which is the first and only to simultaneously harness the power of bi-polar Radio Frequency (RF) and optical energy (laser/light).
This revolutionary technology platform effectively overcomes any safety and procedural limitations and issues that have come from previous IPL and conventional laser devices. Developed by IPL inventor/patent holder Dr. Shimon Eckhouse and Master Physicist, Dr. Michael Kreindel the Elos achievements in safety and efficacy have been documented in many clinical papers and recognised in medical aesthetic practices all over the world.
