• What is IPL Laser hair removal?

  IPL, the intense pulsed light, is widely used by cosmetic and medical practitioners. IPL machine is effective for many kinds of aesthetic treatments. Such as hair removal, sun spot removal, and skin rejuvenation.
  Unlike lasers (single wavelength) which typically matches only one treatment, IPL uses a broad spectrum. The IPL technology delivers an intense and wide-spectrum pulse of light to work on the target area. In general, the spectrum is visible and ranging from 400 to 1200 nm. IPL can do multiple treatments by changing different filters.

• How is the effect of laser hair removal?

  During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.
