What is IPL hair removal?

IPL, (Intense Pulsed Light) is a broadband pulsed light source that emits a beam of light that heats up the melanin in your hair follicles causing the root to be damaged. With repeated use, IPL delays the production of new hair preventing regrowth over time. The energy of the light, frequency of usage and colour of your hairs are all determining factors in defining how effective the IPL treatment will be. The best results are achieved on people with dark hair and fair skin, but if you have sensitive or slightly darker skin then you may have to repeat the IPL process more times to achieve the desired result as it must be treated with lower energy to avoid discomfort.

What are the benefits of IPL?

IPL technology has advanced significantly and is no longer a luxury reserved for celebrities. Now, you can get permanent visible hair removal results in the comfort of your own home. The main benefits? IPL provides you with permanent hair reduction. It’s also convenient and private, allowing you to perform it at your own convenience. Additionally, Braun IPL allows you to choose a sensitive mode for first-time users or when treating sensitive areas like bikini lines.

How long do IPL results last?

When done correctly and over enough time, IPL achieves permanent hair reduction. Persistence with IPL treatment is key though – since hairs grow within a hair growth cycle, repeating IPL treatments will ensure the hair root is targeted at the right growing phase resulting in a consistent reduction in hair growth over time. This will eventually give you long-lasting smooth skin.
