You should stay out of the sun for 4-6 weeks before your session, and avoid plucking, waxing and bleaching the hair you want treated for at least 4 weeks before your treatment. You’ll also need to remove all fake tan to avoid pigment burning, and exfoliate and moisturise daily (except for the day of treatment). It’s advised not to use any topical creams or deodorants on the day of your session.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light technology) hair removal uses a device to direct strong pulses of light at pigment in unwanted hair; this sends a rush of heat down the hair’s shaft, damaging or destroying the cells that cause it to grow. You’re likely to need more than one treatment, but the results are effective and permanent.

IPL uses a broad spectrum of light wavelengths and is generally less targeted than laser. Laser hair removal uses a single, concentrated wavelength for more precise targeting of follicles, and can be more effective for certain skin and hair types. Both are popular long-term hair reduction options.

It’s likely to take 6-10 treatments to see the best results; and you’ll need to leave 4 weeks between each session.

It depends on your individual pain threshold; any discomfort you feel is likely to be short-lived because IPL devices tend to work quickly, giving you little time to register pain. Results are permanent, but you’ll need more than one session to stop all hair regrowth in the treated area.

Almost. You can use IPL hair removal anywhere on the body except the eyes and intimate areas.
