Smooth and Radiant - IPL Hair Removal
In today’s fast-paced world, self-care isn’t just a luxury it’s a necessity. And when it comes to feeling confident and beautiful, smooth, hair-free skin often tops the list. That’s where IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) hair removal comes in a revolutionary treatment that offers a long-lasting solution to unwanted hair. Let’s delve into the wonders of IPL hair removal and why it’s the ultimate solution.
What is IPL Hair Removal?
IPL hair removal is a non-invasive procedure that uses high-intensity pulses of light to target and destroy hair follicles beneath the skin’s surface. Unlike traditional methods like shaving, waxing, or plucking, which provide temporary results and can be time-consuming and painful, IPL offers a more permanent solution with minimal discomfort.
Why do you need to get IPL now?
As it’s a light treatment, the best time of year to start is winter and guess what? Winter in Perth is almost here!
Why is winter the best time to get IPL? Because it’s important not to get the treated area burnt and in winter, you are far less likely to be out in the sun.
IPL unfortunately cannot be used on red or white hair. The hair needs colour in the follicle for it to work and these hairs have no colour. For small areas like the face you would need to get Electrolysis to remove the hair, for larger areas the only other choice is to wax or shave.
What type of IPL machine is used?
At Beauty at Ab Fab, we use the E>O75. It is made in France by a world leader in medical IPL machines and has a total of 12 stages of security measures to guarantee a purely professional treatment.
The device also adheres to the strictest regulations and has been certified with Medical CE as well as TGA registered. While still an expensive machine, an IPL machine isn’t as expensive as a laser machine, making treatment prices much more affordable.
Does IPL hurt?
You will be amazed by a very light warmth sensation at the moment of flash. Only on more sensitive areas might you feel a slight tingle. But nothing like older IPL or Laser technologies thanks to the unique SPL (Square Pulsed Light) technology. Though the length of a session varies on the area being treated you will be surprised by the speed and the gentleness of the treatment.
How many IPL sessions do I need?
Optimum results should require 6 - 8 treatments and it’s recommended to wait 6 weeks between sessions.
A decrease in hair regrowth is noticeable from the first session and throughout the sessions, your hair will become finer and less dense. 8 - 21 days after each session the hair will begin to fall out.
Do you have to do anything to prepare for IPL?
You have to shave the area to be treated on the morning you are having your IPL treatment. It’s important not to wear any deodorants or cream on the area on the day of treatment.
