Rosacea is a common skin condition, usually occurring on the face, which predominantly affects fair-skinned but may affect all skin types in people aged 40 to 60 years old. It is more common in women but when affecting men, it may be more severe. It is a chronic condition, and can persist for a long time and, in any individual, the severity tends to fluctuate. Rosacea usually starts with a tendency to blush easily. After a while, the central areas of the face become a permanent deeper shade of red, with small, dilated blood vessels, bumps, and pus-filled spots. The skin condition tends to affect the cheeks, forehead, chin, and nose. There may also be uncomfortable inflammation of the surface of the eyes and eyelids. Over time the inflammation can cause capillary damage, (please see red vein treatments). IPL Laser treatments quickly reduce the inflammation and calm the skin, while the long term affect is to strengthen the skin, so that the hormonal changes occurring in the skin cannot trigger the rosacea’s side effects to come back. A laser consultation will be done before your first treatment where will we take a medical questionnaire, conduct a small test patch, and discuss the results you desire.
Acne is caused by blocked hair follicles, sometimes caused by sebaceous glands which are tiny glands near the surface of the skin and are attached to your hair follicles. The glands produce oil (called sebum) to stop the skin from drying out. In acne, the glands produce too much and the excess oil binds with dead skin cells and block the follicle. Acne is greatly improved using IPL lasers as not only does the skin strengthen to assist natural healing, but the heat generated in the treated area sterilises the tissue to prevent further outbreaks and heals the residual red marks left from the acne and pustule and visibly improve the post acne texture to the skin due to the dermal regeneration. A laser consultation will take place before treatment to ensure the desired results are achieved, a small test patch will be done, and a medical questionnaire filled in too.
Skin rejuvenation treatments visibly restore the skin giving a fresh, firm muscle definition and increased collagen and elastin, reducing open pores, and lifting the facial contours to reverse the ageing process naturally. Precisely controlled short pulses of light are released that target discolouration (sun induced pigmentation and capillary damage) and also to create a more youthful, even complexion to your skin. A laser consultation will be conducted before treatment to chat about your desired results and skin concerns, design a treatment plan to suit your skin needs and complete a test patch and medical questionnaire.

Here at Elaine Frances Clinical Aesthetics, we offer laser tattoo removal, which is considered by Dermatologists as the safest and most clinically effective procedure for amateur and professional tattoos. Producing fantastic results, this advanced technology works by allowing the light produced by the laser to pass through the skin and shatter the tattoo ink into tiny particles, all without burning or damaging the upper layer of skin. Once the tattoo pigment particles have been shattered, the body will then dispose of these fragments via the body’s natural immune system. A laser consultation will be done to assess the tattoo and advise you on the treatment plan, conduct a small test patch and complete our medical questionnaire.
A fungal nail infection can make the affected nail discoloured and brittle. All nails on the foot with fungus should be treated and Dactarin used every day to keep any fungal activity dormant. Good foot hygiene should be followed. A laser consultation will be conducted so a test patch can take place and a medical questionnaire completed.
Veins on the legs can appear for all kinds of reasons, including pregnancy, long periods on your feet, a trauma in the area or just genetics. If you have an underlying problem such as a bulging varicose vein you will need to get this treated first. We would recommend seeing your GP for varicose veins. If you have patches of red/purple leg veins, please come, and see us and we will give you our honest, expert advice. If we think your veins can be treated with our laser (or diathermy) then we can create a personal treatment plan tailored to you, conduct a small test patch, and complete our short medical questionnaire in the consultation process.
