Photo Rejuvenation
What Is Photo Rejuvenation?
The targeted light is absorbed by specific pigments in the skin, such as melanin (responsible for pigmentation) or superficial haemoglobin, depending on the concern being treated. The absorbed light energy then converts into heat, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fibres in the skin. By promoting collagen and elastin synthesis, photo rejuvenation helps to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and enhance the skin’s overall tone and tightness.

Frequently Asked Questions About Photo Rejuvenation
How Does Photo Rejuvenation Work?
What Are The Benefits Of Photo Rejuvenation?
Improved Skin Tone & Texture: Photo rejuvenation helps to even out skin tone, reducing the appearance of pigmentation irregularities, such as sunspots, freckles, and age spots. It also enhances overall skin texture, making it smoother and more refined.
Reduced Signs of Ageing: By stimulating collagen and elastin production, photo rejuvenation can minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
Diminished Redness & Facial Veins: The treatment effectively targets facial redness caused by conditions like rosacea or visible blood vessels, reducing their appearance and promoting a more even complexion.
Enhanced Skin Elasticity & Firmness: With increased collagen and elastin production, photo rejuvenation improves skin elasticity and firmness, making the skin appear tighter and more supple.
Minimise Pore Size: Photo rejuvenation can help reduce the size of enlarged pores, resulting in a smoother and more refined skin texture.
Sun Damage Reversal: The treatment is effective in reducing the visible effects of sun damage, including sunspots and photoageing, by breaking down excess pigmentation and promoting skin cell turnover.
Non-invasive & Minimal Downtime: Photo rejuvenation is a non-surgical, non-ablative procedure that typically requires no downtime, and patients can resume their regular activities immediately after treatment.
Versatility: Photo rejuvenation can be performed on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands, making it a versatile solution for multiple skin concerns.
Safe & Well-tolerated: When performed by our trained therapists, photo rejuvenation is generally safe and well-tolerated, with minimal risks or side effects.

Is Photo Rejuvenation Painful?
What Should I Do Before Photo Rejuvenation Treatment?
Before undergoing a photo rejuvenation treatment, it is crucial to minimise sun exposure, including tanning beds and self-tanning products, in the weeks leading up to your treatment. Generally, it is advised to stay away from sun exposure for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to treatment. If you must be in the sun, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and wear protective clothing, such as a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses.
Additionally, before undergoing photo rejuvenation, you are required to attend a consultation with our paramedically trained therapist. During this consultation, a test patch will be conducted. This precautionary measure ensures that the photo rejuvenation treatment will be tailored to your specific needs, providing you with optimal and effective results.
What Should I Expect Immediately After Photo Rejuvenation?
Note: It’s important to note that if you have darker skin or recent sun exposure, you may observe temporary pigmentation changes, where certain areas of the skin become lighter or darker.
What Should I Do After Photo Rejuvenation Treatment? (Aftercare)
Protect your skin from the sun: Your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight after the treatment. It is crucial to protect your skin by avoiding direct sun exposure, especially during peak hours when the sun’s rays are strongest. If you must be outdoors, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.
Avoid heat-related activities: Refrain from engaging in activities that generate heat or cause excessive sweating for at least 48 hours after the treatment. This includes hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and intense workouts. Heat can increase the risk of skin irritation and potential complications.
Keep the treated area clean and moisturised: Gently cleanse the treated area with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser. Avoid using harsh products, cosmeceutical skin care, or scrubbing the skin. To keep the treatment area hydrated, we suggest you apply a soothing agent like Lira BIO Recovery Balm.
Avoid picking or scratching the skin: It is essential to refrain from picking, scratching, or exfoliating the treated area. Let the skin naturally shed and heal on its own to avoid complications and ensure optimal results.
Stay hydrated: Last but not least, drink plenty of water to keep your body and skin hydrated. Optimal hydration supports the healing process and overall skin health.
