What is IPL and how does it work?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a light-based hair removal method, which targets the melanin (pigment) inside the hair to interrupt the hair growth cycle and prevent hair regrowth, without damaging the skin.
1. The light energy is transferred through the skin’s surface and is absorbed by the melanin present in the hair shaft
2. The absorbed light is converted to heat energy (below the surface of the skin), which disables the hair follicle preventing further growth
3. Treated hairs naturally fall out over a period which can vary from a few days to 1-2 weeks depending on the individual
4. Repeat every week for 12 weeks to catch each hair during its growth phase

FAQs
Intense pulsed light (IPL) is a technology used by cosmetic and medical practitioners to perform various skin treatments for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes, including hair removal, photorejuvenation (e.g. the treatment of skin pigmentation, sun damage, and thread veins) as well as to alleviate dermatologic diseases such as acne.
IPL is a type of FDA-cleared light treatment that uses strong pulses of a broad spectrum of polychromatic light to target the melanin in hair follicles to achieve permanent hair removal results.
As the pigment absorbs light, it gets heated up and destroyed. Hair will grow back more sparsely and slower after each treatment, permanently reducing hair growth.
- Use 3 times a week during first month;
- Use 2 times a week during second and third month;
- Use once every half or one month after third month.
Most customers start to see evident hair reduction after 3-4 weeks. With 2-3 treatment per week, the effect becomes completely evident after 12 weeks. After each treatment, hair will grow much more sparsely and thinly. Eventually, hair reduction becomes permanent. To maintain the skin’s smoothness, you need to do 1 treatment every 2 to 3 months or as required. Both the outcome and frequency of treatment are different case by case.
According to FDA’s regulations, permanent hair removal means ‘continued and steady reduction of hair over a prolonged period’, which we provide, though some may interpret the term ‘permanent’ differently. Please know that even the photo-therapy used in clinics is not entirely permanent.
