What is IPL Hair Removal?

IPL for hair removal is a simple, non-surgical procedure that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to destroy the cells responsible for hair growth deep within the root. Strong pulses of light stimulate and regenerate cells within the skin, making IPL a versatile tool for a variety of issues. The heat from the device is absorbed by your hair and travels down the shaft and into the follicle, eradicating the hair from the root up.

How is IPL Hair Removal Different Than Laser Hair Removal?

Though both IPL and laser devices use light to remove hair by the root, they’re fundamentally different in the type of light they use. IPL uses broadband pulsed light, whereas lasers are typically monochromatic coherent light sources. Both are permanent, with laser hair removal using more energy on the follicle rather than the surrounding skin, whereas IPL emits a more diffused intensity of light, which some patients find more comfortable.

We use IPL to remove hair on different parts of the face.

Most patients typically feel some heat, and the sensation of a rubber band snapping on their skin. The pain is minimal, but you should let us know if it continues for an extended period of time.

Most people need a handful of sessions for truly permanent results. We’ll go over the details of your treatment plan during a consultation.

Your hair typically should not grow back after IPL hair removal, though there are instances, such as during pregnancy, where hormonal changes can trigger hair regrowth.
