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.

• Week 1&2: Treat every other day
• Week 3-5: Treat twice per week
• After the initial treatment phase (12weekly treatments), treat the target area to maintain results once a month, or as required.
  

Skincare after treatment
After hair removal, it is recommended to apply body lotion or cold compress gel for skin care. Do not use skin care products containing alcohol. Do not expose treated areas to the sun. Wait at least 7 days after treatment before exposing treated skin to direct sunlight.

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.

We would generally recommend the age range for IPL-use to be 15 and above, and this is because body hair becomes mature at this age. Some follicles mature at a younger age. Therefore whether or not to use IPL will depend on the user. We recommend anyone under 18 gain approval from their parents or have consulted a specialist (cosmetician or dermatologist) before using our products.
