Expand Your Treatment Menu with SkinBase IPL

Clients are increasingly looking for effective, non-invasive solutions for unwanted hair and visible skin concerns. SkinBase IPL allows you to provide a wider range of treatments using one versatile system, including:

• Long-term hair reduction
• Pigmentation treatments
• Vascular treatments
• Skin rejuvenation
• Treatments for blemish-prone skin

This versatility enables you to attract new clients while offering existing clients more reasons to return.

Offer Personalised IPL Treatments

Every client’s skin, hair and treatment goals are different. The SkinBase IPL system uses adjustable settings, allowing trained therapists to tailor treatments to the individual client.

The system uses different wavelengths to target various chromophores within the skin. Chromophores are light-absorbing targets, such as melanin in the hair and pigmentation or haemoglobin within blood vessels.

This flexibility makes SkinBase IPL suitable for treating a variety of concerns while supporting an accurate, personalised approach.

Deliver Controlled Energy Levels

IPL energy density is measured in joules per square centimetre (J/cm²). This refers to the amount of energy delivered during each pulse.

The SkinBase IPL system can deliver up to 110 J/cm², although the maximum energy is not required for every treatment. The correct level will depend on factors including the client’s skin type, hair colour, treatment area and concern.

By adjusting the energy density and pulse width, trained therapists can select appropriate treatment parameters for each client.

Tailor the Pulse Width

Pulse width describes how long each pulse of light lasts. The SkinBase IPL system operates with pulse durations between 1 and 50 milliseconds.

Although each pulse is brief, it provides enough time for controlled heat to build within the targeted chromophore. During hair reduction, for example, melanin absorbs the light and converts it into heat, helping to disrupt the follicle and reduce future hair growth.

Different skin types, hair types and treatment concerns require different settings, making adjustable pulse widths an important feature.

Keep Clients Comfortable with the Cryo-Handset

The SkinBase IPL system has two handsets. One delivers the IPL energy, while the cryo-handset cools the skin before and after each pulse. Cooling helps to minimise the sensation of heat and keep the client comfortable throughout treatment.

Technology Designed to Support Therapists

SkinBase IPL features a full-colour touchscreen that guides trained therapists through the treatment setup. After the relevant client and treatment information has been entered, the system helps identify appropriate treatment parameters.

These settings are used alongside a detailed consultation, patch test and professional assessment. This guided process gives therapists added support when delivering personalised IPL treatments.

Build Repeat Business with Treatment Courses

IPL is generally recommended as a course because hair and skin concerns cannot usually be addressed in a single appointment.

Hair grows in different stages, and IPL is most effective when the hair is in its active growth phase. A course therefore gives therapists an opportunity to build longer-term client relationships and generate more consistent, predictable income.

Why Now Is a Good Time to Begin

Autumn and winter are ideal seasons for introducing and promoting many IPL treatments. Clients generally have less sun exposure, while treated areas are more likely to remain covered.

Starting an IPL hair reduction course during the cooler months also gives clients time to work towards smoother, hair-free-looking skin ahead of the following summer.

The post-summer period is another valuable opportunity to speak to clients about concerns such as pigmentation, redness and visible sun damage that may be suitable for IPL.

More Than an IPL Machine

A SkinBase IPL partnership gives you more than access to advanced treatment technology. You will also receive the training, resources and ongoing support needed to introduce IPL into your business confidently.

From preparing for launch to marketing your treatments and developing your client base, SkinBase will support you throughout your partnership.
