Hair Removal

Treatment using Intense Pulse Light (IPL) to reduce unwanted hair.

Why have IPL Hair removal?

• Get rid of unwanted hair on face, under-arms, body, bikini line, legs.
  
  
• Avoid using other treatments e.g. shaving, waxing, electrolysis.
  
  
• Improve self-confidence and quality of life.

Intense Pulse Light (IPL) hair removal uses pulses of light directed at the hair follicle (growing hair). The greater the amount of pigment in the follicle the better the light is absorbed and more heat is transferred to the follicle. By heating up the follicle this causes it to shrink and / or die. Initially, hair growth is reduced, becoming lighter and thinner.

Multiple treatments are required as only growing follicles ( anaphase) can be treated. About 1/3 of your follicles are resting (telophase) and will not be affected by the IPL treatment.

Commonly, 4 – 6 treatment sessions are required to provide a long lasting reduction in hair growth depending on the area of the body.

IPL treatment is carried out in the Clinic, is relatively painless (slight stinging) and extremely safe.

Remember treatment will not change you or solve any life crises, but should boost your self-confidence and enjoyment of life.

At your consultation, your goals, skin type and hair quality will determine your suitability for IPL hair removal and the optimum programme for you to achieve the best results.
