IPL is regarded as the safest method of hair removal for all skin types.  For the first time, dark skins can be offered this treatment.


Method


The hair is first shaved

Gel is applied on the skin

The IPL head is placed on the area from which hair is to be removed

The skin is then systematically treated


At least 5 treatments and often up to 8 are required for successful removal of hair.

Regretfully, blonde and white hairs cannot be treated.


DONTS


Do not wax before an IPL treatment.

Do not tan for 2 weeks before treatment
