How does IPL remove hair?
IPL uses pulsed light to remove hair and impair hair regrowth. First, a cool gel and a hand-held treatment unit are gently applied to the skin. Then, in a flash, the light is conducted on the hair follicles by the melanin of the hair. It safely penetrates the skin and disable all hair follicles simultaneously.
What is IPL treatment like?
When IPL's pulse of light is delivered to the hair, (one or up to three pulse depending of the hair and skin type) the cooling system of the handle avoids you to feel a mild sting or pinch. No local anesthesia or pain medication is required, and in case of skin redness a dermatological cream can be used.
How many treatments are required?
Several treatments may be needed, with each session usually lasting 10-30 minutes, depending on the size of the area to be treated. Several treatments are also needed because the hair have different growing phases. The number of treatment varies upon your hair color and location on the body.
Are there any life restrictions after one treatment?
No. You can return to work the same day and resume all regular activities. You should of course limit sun exposure, which is always a good idea. |
