The ageing process can also bring about uneven skin tone, as collagen begins to deplete at a rate of 1% a year after our late 20s. This makes it much more challenging for skill cells to renew themselves, making way for skin conditions, including pigmentation. At Bodyvie, we offer IPL (Intense Pulse Light) treatment to address pigmentation.
One of our valued clients is the television presenter Anthea Turner, who we’re thrilled to hear this treatment has made a noticeable difference to her skin and confidence.
A word from television legend Anthea Turner
‘Most of my pigmentation marks have either faded down to nothing. The ones (which looked huge to me) have now faded.
I only ever have anything done at a salon that will make a difference. I was quite embarrassed about my pigmentation marks, which started as collagen depleted.
I didn’t want to wear t-shirts because I was conscious of my arm. I can absolutely say that hand on my heart, this treatment has done the job.’
How Effective Is IPL For Pigmentation?
Our state-of-the-art Lynton IPL laser releases light in short pulses. These are absorbed by the high concentration of melanin contained within pigmented lesions. The light energy heats this melanin and causes melanin-rich cells to become damaged.
To see the full effects of IPL on your skin, you must be committed to multiple treatment sessions, mainly if the pigmentation is severe. 2 to 3 sessions are recommended at 4 to 6-week intervals.
So, if you’ve been typing ‘how to get rid of pigmentation?’ into Google and to no avail, hopefully, you have some food for thought in the form of the Lynton IPL laser. The Lynton brand is synonymous with quality, having won multiple awards, including the prestigious Aesthetic Equipment of the Year award, and pioneered many developments in IPL technology.

Pigmentation is something that I have been struggling with for quite some time, especially after my pregnancy. I started visiting Bodyvie about a year ago and it has gotten so much better. It isn’t painful and as long as you stay out of the sun and follow post-treatment care tips shouldn’t have any recovery time required.
Absolutely! IPL is a great way to address pigmentation, sunspots, freckles, rosacea, and more. At Bodyvie, the team is meticulous when it comes to understanding your skin’s anatomy and will tailor a skincare treatment to you.
I was skeptical at first about IPL, but I’m so glad I gave it a chance. My pigmentation spots have faded significantly and my skin looks brighter and more radiant. I would definitely recommend it to anyone struggling with pigmentation issues.
