Laser Facials

Laser facials are suitable for many skin types and concerns, with treatment choice and settings fully customised by your practitioner.

They are ideal for:

• Pigmentation and sun damage
• Redness, rosacea and broken capillaries
• Acne and acne scarring
• Enlarged pores and uneven texture
• Fine lines and early signs of ageing
• Dull, tired-looking skin

A consultation is essential to determine suitability, ensure safety and select the most appropriate laser treatment for your skin.

Laser facials are a popular non-surgical skin rejuvenation option that can improve tone, clarity and overall radiance. Treatment plans can be tailored to address specific concerns, whether targeting pigmentation, redness or texture, and can be combined with other skincare therapies for enhanced results.

Results vary depending on the treatment chosen:

• IllumiFacial (IPL): brighter, clearer skin within 1–2 weeks
• Carbon Doll Facial: immediate glow and smoother texture
• Fractional Laser: visible improvement from 2–4 weeks, with continued collagen renewal over several months

Most laser treatments work best as a course, with long-term improvements building gradually over time.

A personalised treatment plan is usually recommended to achieve the best results, with your practitioner advising on the number of sessions and intervals based on skin type and concerns.

Downtime depends on the type of laser facial performed. Some treatments are designed to deliver visible results with minimal recovery, while others may require a short healing period to achieve optimal outcomes. Treatment choice and downtime are determined during consultation to ensure safety and suitability for the individual skin concern.

Possible side effects include:

• Mild redness or warmth
• Slight swelling or sensitivity
• Temporary darkening of pigmentation (IPL)
• Light flaking or dryness (fractional laser)

Carbon Doll and IllumiFacial treatments typically have little to no downtime, while Fractional Laser may require a short recovery period, which will be discussed during consultation.

Following recommended aftercare helps reduce sensitivity and supports the best results. Your practitioner will provide full guidance on what to expect and how to manage any temporary side effects

Aftercare is vital for optimal results and skin safety. Proper post-treatment care helps reduce irritation, supports healing and ensures the best possible outcome from laser facial treatments in Poole and Bournemouth.

General aftercare includes:

• Avoid heat, sun exposure and active skincare for several days
• Apply SPF daily
• Keep skin hydrated and use gentle products only
• Avoid picking or exfoliating treated skin

Your practitioner will provide personalised aftercare advice and recommend follow-up treatments or maintenance sessions to support long-term results.

Following these guidelines helps protect the skin barrier, minimise side effects and maintain the improvements achieved through treatment, ensuring clients in Poole and Bournemouth enjoy long-lasting, radiant results.
