IPL Hair Removal FAQs
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.
No. For IPL to work, the device needs to be able to distinguish between the colour of your skin tone and the colour of your hair; it’s therefore not recommended for use on black skin, nor for those with red or light blonde hair. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or if you have a known medical condition, check with your doctor if it’s safe for you to try IPL hair removal.
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.
It’s likely to take 6-10 treatments to see the best results; and you’ll need to leave 4 weeks between each session.
Almost. You can use IPL hair removal anywhere on the body except the eyes and intimate areas.
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 hair removal can help to give you those bare skin feels for the long haul. It's a form of light therapy and differs from laser hair removal, as it uses intense pulsed light to heat the hair follicle, damaging it and significantly delaying regrowth.

Using a gentler beam of light with intense frequency, SHR hair removal can target even lighter and finer hair. Book IPL or SHR treatments at top-rated clinics nearby on Fresha.
