This product is FDA approved.

IPL treatments, according to a study in the Journal of Clinical Aesthetic Dermatology, show that people get 83.3% less hair growth after one month and 78.1% less after three months. Results can last for years or even permanently. This makes IPL an excellent choice for those who want to enjoy long-lasting smoothness.

IPL works best for light to medium skin types with dark hair, as well as targeting light brown hair. Neither method is suitable for blonde, gray, red or white hair. Although laser devices and IPL technology both use light energy, laser hair removal machines are proven to be more powerful.

The fastest laser hair removal technology is Alexandrite, and the Medi-Diode which works best for larger body areas among patients who have light-to-olive complexions. Additionally, the Romeo & Juliette Synchro REPLAY dual-wavelength laser machine is one of the fastest and most powerful lasers available.

So, IPL may not be for you if: You are sensitive to light. You have tanned your skin recently through sunlight, tanning beds, or tanning creams. You use a retinoid cream.

It does not work well on dark skin

Laser hair removal works better on people with pale skin and dark hair. It's not as effective on tanned skin or hair that's been bleached by the sun. If you've got a tan you'll need to let it fade before having treatment.

You won't have to worry about this with IPL, as you're actually advised to shave before treatment. Shaving before your IPL hair removal treatment helps the light beam to focus in on the hair root. When using IPL, you'll need to shave less and less as your treatments go on.

Step 1: Shave the area you wish to remove. Step 2: Plug in the device, turn on the device and select your energy position. Step 3: The cooling mode will automatically start. Adjust to your desired mode.

Many people report they achieve permanent hair reduction after just a few treatments. However, some people may require touch-ups every few years to keep those hair bulbs from sprouting out new follicles. IPL hair removal treatments are a great way to achieve long-lasting results without the hassle of shaving or waxing.

Most areas that clients have treated are influenced by hormones that drive growth. Therefore, it is inevitable that the hair will come back because hormones change. In conclusion, stopping treatments prematurely will decrease hair growth but won't get you maximum results.
