Lumina Q at Hyde Park Clinic

Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapies have been receiving plenty of media interest in recent years, and rightly so. Hyde Park Clinic has a long association with the UK’s leading laser manufacturer, Lynton Lasers, and in April 2010 took delivery of a brand new system, the Lumina Q. This top of the range platform allows for the delivery of an extensive range of light therapies, from hair removal to tattoo removal. There are a number of laser systems available but not many can match the range, quality and power provided by the Lumina Q.

High energy light has the potential to bring about a number of impressive and long lasting cosmetic changes when used appropriately. These changes can be achieved safely and within a short time frame  from literally days to a few months.

Essentially, the light pulse is delivered to the skin and upon striking certain pigments (eg melanin in hair or a red thread vein), the light is selectively absorbed and converted to heat. The heat generated destroys the target only, leaving all nearby tissues intact.

Treatable conditions include:

• Unwanted or excess hair
• Unwanted tattoos
• Facial red veins
• Leg thread veins
• Pigmented lesions or patches (liver spots)
• Acne rosacea (acne of middle years)
• Acne vulgaris (teenage acne)
• Sun damaged skin (by a process known as photorejuvenation)
