IPL TREATMENT
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy using the Lumecca device delivers controlled pulses of broad-spectrum light to the skin. The light energy is absorbed by chromophores within the skin, such as pigment and haemoglobin, which convert the light into heat. This process may assist in improving the appearance of certain skin concerns.
IPL may be considered in selected patients for conditions such as pigmentation irregularities, sun damage, redness and some vascular lesions. Treatment suitability is determined during consultation following assessment of skin type, medical history and the area being treated.
Treatment sessions typically take up to 30 minutes depending on the size and location of the treatment area. Some patients may require more than one treatment session depending on the condition being treated and individual skin response. Treatment plans are individualised and discussed during consultation.
Risks and recovery
As with any medical procedure, IPL treatment carries potential risks. These may include temporary redness, swelling, blistering, pigment changes, infection and, in rare cases, scarring. Some patients may experience a flushed appearance for several hours following treatment. Recovery experiences vary depending on the treatment area and individual skin response.
All potential risks, expected recovery and aftercare instructions are discussed during consultation prior to treatment.

All treatments are guided by clinical assessment, with consideration given to underlying factors as well as the visible features of the skin.
A range of non-surgical procedures and medical skin treatments are offered, with treatment plans tailored to the individual. The aim is to support skin health and address patient concerns in a measured and considered way. No two patients are the same, and all treatments require consultation to determine suitability.
Wy-lah is an aboriginal name for Yellow-tailed black cockatoo. For Dr Fox, this animal represents new beginnings, a good omen and a connection to her ancestors.
