    Facial redness: treatments at Haku, Dublin

    What can help facial redness?

    At Haku, the options for redness are IPL (full face €220) at Haku Ranelagh, pulses of light aimed at redness and broken capillaries near the surface, and two gentler facials at both salons: the Comfort Zone Customised Facial (€119) and the PDRN Bio-Meso Facial (€200). Results vary, and persistent redness is worth showing your GP first.

    The three options, side by side

    Downtime

    IPL:
    Skin is usually mildly pink for a few hours. Wear SPF 50 every day for two weeks.
    PDRN Bio-Meso Facial:
    Some mild redness is possible for a few hours. Wear SPF 50 for the week after.

    Is IPL suitable for me?

    IPL isn't suitable on skin tanned in the last four weeks, on darker skin (Fitzpatrick types V and VI), with light-sensitising medication such as isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or doxycycline, or over moles and tattoos. We check your suitability before your first session.

    When to see your GP

    See your GP before booking with us if the redness:

    • is new, spreading or painful
    • comes with swelling, heat or a fever
    • keeps flaring with spots, stinging or burning

    Persistent facial redness can be rosacea, which your GP can diagnose and treat. We don't diagnose skin conditions.

    Before you book

    Questions

    Can I have IPL on tanned skin?

    Not within four weeks of tanning. Tell us when you book if you've been in the sun.

    How many IPL sessions will I need?

    It depends on your skin, and results vary. IPL is sold as a course of six, €1,100, and your therapist suggests a plan once they've seen your skin.

    Do I need SPF after IPL?

    Yes. Wear SPF 50 every day for at least two weeks after each session.

    Can I have IPL when I'm pregnant?

    No. We don't offer IPL during pregnancy.

    Do I need a patch test?

    Some treatments need one first, so ask us before you book. A patch test at Haku is free and takes five minutes in the salon. If there is no reaction after 24 hours, you're clear for the treatment: book it at the desk during the test, or online from 24 hours after.
