How Does IPL Hair Removal Work



With all sorts of magic skin solutions being marketed, it is normal to feel a little wary when another skin treatment promises attractive results without causing any physical or monetary pain. IPL Hair removal, otherwise known as IPL, stands for Intense Pulsed Light Hair Removal.  While IPL technology has been around since the late nineties, it has only been used to address hair removal recently. IPL hair removal works by subjecting skin to multiple beams of diffused light at various wavelengths to treat hair follicles so that hair growth significantly lessens.

While laser methods claim to do the same thing, the only advantage in opting for IPL treatment is that it causes significantly lesser skin damage compared to laser treatment. Both treatments target the hair follicle under the skin, since the pigment in hair follicles attracts the beams of light, subsequently the follicle then heats up and destroys the stem cells in the hair follicle that enable hair regrowth. However, IPL differs from lasers since it delivers less skin surface damage since light is diffused.

IPL works best for those with mild to moderate unwanted hair growth problems. It does not claim to solve the woes of the impossibly hairy, but the power of the treatment is definitely enough for a majority of the population. IPL also requires an average of 6 sessions to deliver its promise of permanent hair removal. The good side though is that these sessions are painless and almost hassle free since they only last 10 minutes on average. With this procedure, you can rush in the clinic at lunchtime and still have enough time leftover to grab lunch.

To sum it up, IPL hair removal is a great solution for busy women who want to maintain silky hair-free skin. Just the thought of never having to see dull razors again should be enough to convince any woman to speed down to the local specialist and to check this treatment out. What are you waiting for? It’s time to live the happy and hair-free life!
