WHAT IS SOLARI™ IPL?

Solari™ IPL is a Health Canada approved device that is an advancement of the regular IPL device. A selective spectrum of light is transmitted through the hand piece and to the skin. The hand piece adequately monitors skin temperature and automatically cools the skin surface to maintain optimal results and safety. With a homogeneous spectral output of square pulse technology, method for skin cooling, and precise wavelength selection for increased therapeutic results, the device is effective with relatively little side effects and discomfort. Furthermore, the procedure involves a unique “S-Toning” option that involves sub-micro pulses resulting in minimized pain while not reducing treatment results.
