Question 1

How many IPL sessions are needed?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

What is IPL hair removal?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 4

How does IPL hair removal work and is it effective?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

Is IPL hair removal safe for all skin types?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 7

Does IPL hair removal hurt and is it a permanent solution?

Accepted Answer

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.
