What is the e-light system?

The e-Light system combines both Radio Frequency (RF) and Intensive Pulse Light (IPL) technology. E-Light treatment is a non-invasive and non-surgical approach to reduce unwanted hair (including white, blonde and red hair) and reduce red veins, age spots, sun spots, acne, uneven pigmentation and large pores. It also tightens, smooths and lifts the skins and reduces the fatty deposits under the skin, which causes cellulite.

How does the e-Light system work?:

First, IPL (Intense Pulse Light) delivers a low frequency light energy to the skin to preheat the target area. This controlled electrical current creates a thermal path for the RF (Radio Frequency) energy to directly target the hair follicle, vascular or pigmented lesions. Using the most advanced technology, the e-Light system produces less stress on the body, less discomfort and more effective results than traditional IPL alone. The e-Light system is also able to effectively treat all hair colours.

Please note: Most people will benefit from RF and IPL treatments, but those who are pregnant, on certain medications, diabetic, or have a history of keloid scarring may not be suitable. E-Light treatment is not compatible with concurrent sun exposure.

Permanent hair removal – for all hair colours

E-Light treatments effectively removes unwanted hair, putting an end to routine waxing and shaving. It's proven to reduce the number of hairs re-growing after each treatment. Treatments are safe, fast, effective and virtually painless – with visible results and no recovery time. Modern e-light technology allows customised treatments according to the colour, texture and location of your unwanted hair growth. Any colour – white, blonde, red, brown or black – can be effectively treated.

Face treatments

As our skin matures, the collagen and elastin proteins that help support a tight skin structure start to break down, resulting in a loss of elasticity and the appearance of age spots, fine lines and wrinkles. By contracting and producing new collagen and elastin fibres, e-Light treatments help to produce tighter, smoother, younger looking skin with a visible “lift”.

Body contouring

E-Light treatments help to tighten and lift skin, which is great news for flabby arms, thighs and post-pregnancy tummies. Radio Frequency treatment can also help to shrink the unwanted body fat that causes cellulite, resulting in smoother, beach-ready bums and legs.

Number of treatments needed

The number of treatments required depends on your age, skin, hair colour and the condition being treated. Most clients notice an immediate result but everyone will benefit from 6 – 10 treatments. Some may require a longer course of treatments to ensure satisfactory results.

Your initial series of treatments can be represented at approximately three to six week intervals.

Discomfort factor

Most clients describe the sensation like a snap of a rubber band with a bit of heat. Because e-Light treatments are non-invasive and non-surgical, discomfort levels are low. The time required to treat is 15-30 minutes.

Recovery time

Most people find that they can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment.

Side effects

Side effects are very rare, but it is possible to experience a slight reddening of local swelling at the treatment area. This usually disappears within hours. Even rarer, blisters or bruising may occur, but this also typically disappears in a short period of time.

Lastly, some discolouring of the skin may follow your treatment, but will return to normal within a week or two. It is important to stay out of the sun, do not use tanning booths and use a high SPF following treatment.
