IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) hair removal uses broad-spectrum light pulses to target the melanin (pigment) in hair follicles, damaging them to reduce future hair growth. It is a non-invasive, long-lasting hair reduction treatment available at clinics and beauty salons.

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

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.

Most people require 6–12 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart to achieve significant, long-lasting hair reduction. Follow-up maintenance sessions may be needed 1–2 times per year. The number of sessions varies by hair colour, skin tone, and treatment area.

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.
