How does it work?
Exilite works on the principle of selective photothermolysis. This machine comes with different cutoff filters of different wavelength ranging from 400 to 1200nm.This helps to target specific chromophore. As there are Cut off filters.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
Intense Pulse Light (IPL) is produced when electric current is passed through xenon gas. This the electric energy is converted to optical energy. This light is polychromatic, unlike laser is monochromatic.
Skin rejuvenation:
IPL works very good in skin rejuvenation, also called as photo-facial in which 560 nm wavelength is used. It helps to stimulate collagen fibers beneath the skin, helps to build elastin fibers in the skin, which helps to give a more youthful and flawless appearance to the skin. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve best possible results (4-6).
In Acne:
IPL acts by photo-dynamic therapy in the treatment of acne vulgaris. Propionibacterium acne (P. acnes) a causative bacteria for acne produces the porphyrins during their growth and proliferation in the follicular units. These porphyrins absorb light of the IPL & helps to destroy P Acne bacteria. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve best possible results.
In Vascular lesions:
Light pulses targeted at the red-pigment (hemoglobin) in the blood which heats and destroys the vascular pigment without affecting the skin or other tissues. In Rosacea, it helps to target oxyhemoglobin of blood vessels, capillaries in the skin, which helps to reduce redness, vascularity of skin. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve best possible results (4-6).
For pigmented lesions:
Light pulses targeted at the melanin in the skin’s surface which heats and destroys melanin to remove the discoloration. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve best possible results.
Hair removal:
The Light pulses targeted at the hair follicle causing the hair to fall out and prevent further growth. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve best possible results. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve best possible results (4-6).
