Discovering the Effectiveness of IPL Hair Removal Technology

Who does not want flawless skin? Since modern technology experts were able to create some of the most innovative non-surgical beauty remedies, they are currently a trend. And of course, the road to flawless skin starts with the removal of unnecessary hairs from several parts of the body. Traditionally, we have to go through a lot of pain to solve this beauty problem. From tweezing to shaving and up to waxing, we could not deny the fact that once in our life we had to face those kinds of situation. However, thanks to the geniuses who invented these non-surgical treatments we do not have to deal with any of those anymore.

IPL or Intense Pulsed Light technology is one of the most used and proven effective permanent hair removal treatments nowadays. IPL has also been known and referred to as “flash lamp therapy.” Dermatologists came up with the term as this method includes the use of an intense but limited and controlled amount of light. Consequently, IPL is not only ideal for permanent hair removal treatment but can also improve acne scars, facial lines, freckles, wrinkles, and stretch mark problems.

IPL Procedure and Results

IPL procedure is referred to as photorejuvenation. This method of skin treatment does not require any sedation or anesthesia as it only uses a fair amount of wavelengths of light fit for the skin. The spectrum of lights pierces through the deeper parts of the skin avoiding damage to the outermost layer of the dermis or the epidermis. As the amount of light is controlled, it is also proven that IPL also does not damage the other tissues and cells in the focus area of the treatment.

If you wanted to make the most out of this skin therapy, you must make it a point to do three to five IPL treatments every four weeks. However, if you are permanently trying to remove unnecessary hairs, several studies have concluded that you must undergo the process 6 to 12 times. Why? Here are the reasons:

IPL therapy needs to be done 3-5 times for wrinkles and other skin imperfections and 6 to 12 times for hair removal because each treatment gradually results in changes. You do not have to worry because you will see the effect of the procedure on your skin right after the session. As for hair removal, it requires several numbers of courses to make sure that your unwanted hairs are eradicated up to its roots.

The schedule needs to be four weeks apart as it takes 30 days for new skin cells to grow. With this, you can be reassured that your skin has already healed and completely recovered before undergoing another set of treatment again.
