ACTIVE® – IPL
What is it?
ACTIVE® - IPL - Hair Removal / PhotoFacials / Pigmentation/ Rosacea / Acne
- ACTIVE®’s GEM-IPL technology is an innovative technology, developed to harness light energy to treat a variety of skin conditions effectively for the best results.
- G.E.M. Technology (Geometrical Energy Management) – focusing light under the skin. With this technology developed by ACTIVE® we can coagulate hair follicles & perform additional skin treatments without patient discomfort and with excellent results.
- Unlike other machines that first heat the skin surface, we concentrate the energy below the skin surface so it is not felt by the patient and performs the treatment with efficiency.
- Combining this technology with high intensity pulses (more than twice the average intensity in competing devices) provides us with a safe & effective treatment.
