IPL Hair Removal For many men and women, unwanted hair can be a nightmare. Until now the only options for removing unwanted hair were smelly hair removal creams, sharp razors, stinging wax or painful electrolysis needles. IPL, an advanced approach to beautiful skin, provides the ultimate solution. Now, men and women alike will be pleased with the results made possible by the IPL Laser Hair Removal process. What is the IPL Laser Hair Removal process? The IPL process uses intense pulsed light to gently remove unwanted hair, putting an end to routine shaving and waxing. IPL treatments leave your skin looking and feeling smoother and silkier. This patented technology transcends the older, painful hair removal treatments to deliver long lasting results. IPL's wide beam treats larger areas such as the back, shoulders, arms, legs and face rather than treating one hair at a time. Best of all, IPL treatments are a safe, fast, gentle and effective alternative method for hair removal. What are the benefits of IPL hair removal? • Larger areas may be treated at one time. • It works equally well with light or dark hair and skin. • There is less chance for scarring and pigmentation change. • Less pain and discomfort compared to other hair removal treatments. • Combines the speed of shaving with the lasting results promised by electrolysis. • IPL is effective on almost any area of the body where smoother, younger-looking hair-free skin is desired. How many treatments will I need? The number of treatments you may require for optimal long-term benefits depends on the area you wish to have treated, the hair density and your hair's growth cycle. Your hair grows in cycles and many factors influence it's growth. Age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication and metabolism all play a part in your hair's location, thickness and resilience. IPL slows the growing capacity of follicles in the growth cycle at the time of the treatment. Since some hair follicles may enter their growth cycle after your treatment, three or four treatments may be required to deliver optimal results. Note: Removing hair does not make it grow back thicker, darker or quicker. The opposite is usually the case. IPL treatments may cause hair to come back slower and thinner.
