IPL Hair Removal

IPL Hair Removal is the use of intense pulsed light to remove unwanted hair.

After having the IPL hair removal done, the skin feels and looks smoother. This is a gentle procedure compared to shaving and waxing. IPL hair removal is faster and has longer lasting results than the conventional one hair at a time treatments. It is also a patented technology. The IPL hair removal uses a wide beam to cover large areas of the body all at one time. Whole parts of the leg can be done all at once. This even works on the back, arms or shoulders, and even the face. This is a safe and effective way to remove hair.

IPL hair removal can work with any type of hair or skin. It leaves very little, or no scarring at all, and no change in pigmentation. The lasting results are compared to electrolysis, however, it is much faster and less painful than electrolysis. IPL hair removal can be used on almost any part of the body. IPL can slow the follicle growth in the cycle at the treatment time. There may be some follicles that enter the growth cycle right after the IPL hair removal, so three or four treatments may be needed. So it depends on the area you want to have treated, the growth cycle and the hair density.

Other factors that play into this are age, weight, diet, medication, etnicity and hormones. Also, the old saying that removing hair makes it come back even faster and thicker is not true. With the IPL hair removal, it will actually come back much slower and much thinner. IPL hair removal is safe, and after the treatment you can go back to normal living instantly. Your doctor will tell you what skin care to use and the treated area should be protected from the sun.
