Intense Pulse
Light (IPL) hair
removal uses pulses
of light directed
at the hair follicle
(growing hair).
The greater the
amount of pigment
in the follicle
the better the
light is absorbed
and more heat
is transferred
to the follicle.
By heating up
the follicle this
causes it to shrink
and / or die.
Initially, hair
growth is reduced,
becoming lighter
and thinner.
Multiple treatments
are required as
only growing follicles
( anaphase) can
be treated. About
1/3 of your follicles
are resting (telophase)
and will not be
affected by the
IPL treatment.
Commonly, 4 –
6 treatment sessions
are required to
provide a long
lasting reduction
in hair growth
depending on the
area of the body.
IPL treatment
is carried out
in the Clinic,
is relatively
painless (slight
stinging) and
extremely safe.
Remember treatment
will not change
you or solve any
life crises, but
should boost your
self-confidence
and enjoyment
of life.
At your consultation,
your goals, skin
type and hair
quality will determine
your suitability
for IPL hair removal
and the optimum
programme for
you to achieve
the best results.
