What is IPL Hair
Removal?
Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) hair removal offers a gentle, long-lasting
solution to unwanted body hair. Imagine not having to shave, tweeze
or wax. Based on technology used for nearly a decade, IPL hair removal
causes permanent hair reduction without damaging the epidermis, regardless
of skin type. It is the most comfortable and efficient method to remove
unwanted hair.
Q&A:
Q: How does it work?
Laser hair removal systems gently remove unwanted hair. Laser light
energy creates heat as it passes through the skin and targets the melanin
found in the hair follicle. By heating up the hair follicle during its
active phase, the laser disables the follicle's ability to produce hair
without affecting surrounding tissue. In clinical trials to date using
a number of different lasers and intense pulsed light hair removal systems,
some test sites remained hair-free for up to 2 years.
Q: Is It Permanent?
Yes; Permanent Hair REDUCTION. It is important to emphasize that there
is no guarantee that laser hair removal will be permanent, but will
likely reduce the total number of hairs growing back after treatment.
In addition, the hair that does grow back is often lighter and finer.
The FDA has approved several laser manufacturers to claim permanent
hair reduction. The results tend to be additive, i.e. more treatments
lead to greater degrees of permanent hair reduction. Results vary based
on patient, laser and practitioner.
Advantages
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive method of photoepilation, which
does not require needles or messy chemical creams. Since thousands of
hairs can be zapped in a single treatment session, large areas like
the back, shoulders, arms and legs can be effectively and efficiently
treated.
• Most consumers have experienced long-lasting hair removal or
permanent hair reduction.
• Treatments are very safe when performed properly. Make sure
your treatment giver is licensed and has experience with laser and light
based treatments.
• Hair may come back lighter in color or finer in texture.
• Thanks to new technology it is less painful than waxing and
electrolysis.
Preparing for Laser Hair Removal
• Stay away from the sun in the weeks prior to a laser hair removal
session, since tanned skin will inhibit effectiveness
• If you are taking medication, check first with your doctor
• The area to be treated must be shaved the day of the laser hair
removal session.
How long do I have to stay out of the sun before
an IPL or Laser treatment? After?
We never recommend that you be out in the sun. It is always important
to wear spf. However, it is recommended that you should stay out of
the sun 3 weeks prior and 3 weeks after an IPL or laser treatment.
