- Can I have IPL Hair Removal?
-
Our Laser powered IPL safely ensures darker skin types can successfully treat unwanted facial and body hair. For very blonde and fair coloured hair, as long as the hair shaft and bulb has medium to dark pigment, you are suitable to have IPL hair reduction.
Electrolysis, or a combination of, is recommended for hairs that are grey, red or blonde as IPL hair reduction alone will not work.
IPL hair removal may not be suitable for clients with; epilepsy, pregnancy, healing disorders, active cold sores, photosensitising medications, recent sun exposure, sun tanned or fake tan, cancer patients undergoing treatment and some autoimmune disorders.
- How Will I Look Immediately After IPL Hair Removal?
-
Mild localised redness and follicular swelling may be experienced, however this will subside within a few hours. If you have freckles, sun damage and pigmentation on the treatment area, the IPL will temporarily darken these spots, however over time this will rejuvenate and even your skin tone.
- When Can I Have My Next IPL Treatment?
-
Treatment intervals depend on the area being treated and the combination of hair removal modalities being used. For facial hair we recommend treatments every 4 to 6 weeks and for body areas every 8 to 10 weeks, however treatment areas can initially be treated as frequently as needed so you can remain hair free and confident.
- How Many IPL Hair Removal Treatments Will I Need?
-
Every individual will need to be assessed and advised on their particular treatment program, especially where mixed modality is utilised.
On average we find a 90% permanent reduction is achieved over 5 to 6 sessions.
Some clients may need more treatments to achieve an adequate permanent reduction and desirable result. This may include clients with: fine and light brown hairs against a darker skin type, hormonal imbalances such as; PCOS or hirsutism, menopause and male clients.
- Do I Need A Test Patch?
-
Test patches allow our therapists to test the maximum and safe settings which means you will achieve your end result much quicker and more effectively. If a test patch is required, this will be provided during your consultation or prior to your first treatment at no extra charge.
Sometimes if it has been longer than 6 months or you have been exposed to the sun or had any recent medical changes you will be required to re test patch for an additional fee.
