IPL Laser hair reDUCTION
What is IPL?
IPL works by targeting the melanin (pigment) in the hair with quick pulses of light. This light energy converts to heat within the hair follicle, destroying it at the root. When sufficient heat has built up, the follicle will break down and be unable to produce a new hair.
This process is most effective in the ‘anagen’ (first) phase of hair growth. Approximately 30% of hairs are in this stage of growth at any one time, therefore, a course of treatments is required.
Typically 10-12 treatments are needed at intervals of 4-6 weeks to see long lasting results. Depending on your hair growth, some clients will need more treatments for best results.
**You will be required to shave 3 days before your treatment. This is imperative, as if the hair is long, it will simply heat up before it reaches the skin level and could be painful.**
We offer a full through consultation and patch test which is necessary to discuss expectations and determine skin/hair type. We will not be able to perform a treatment for you without this completed.
