Intense pulsed light hair removal is a new and advanced, long-term hair removal method. A client sits or lies in a comfortable position, and then a technician glides a wand-like tool, or handpiece, over his or her skin. The handpiece emits a beam of specially filtered light, which is absorbed by the hair and converted to heat. This heat disintegrates the hair and disables the hair follicle. New hair growth will be delayed, and a percentage of hair may not grow back at all.
　　To top Is the treatment safe?
Yes, it is very safe. Some people may experience mild reddening of the treatment area for a day or so after treatment, but other complications are rare. The Intense Pulsed Light system delivers energy to the skin very gently. Plus, the handpiece extracts heat from the skin during each pulse of light for maximum protection.

　　Treatments are extremely fast, over twice as fast as waxing. A pair of legs or a man�s back can be treated in less than ten to twenty minutes. Smaller areas, such as the face or back of the neck, can be done in less than a minute.

　　 No. The light is selectively absorbed by the hair and hair follicles. The skin itself is exposed to little heat. Plus, no irritating chemicals are used, and the hairs aren't pulled on in any way.

　　 Results are long lasting. Nearly all hair can be removed from a pair of legs for up to three months, or from the face for up to one to two months. Some hair may never return at all. The exact amount of time that the hair stays gone depends on the area being treated, the settings selected by the technician, and individual hair and skin factors.

　　 You may require from 5 to 10 treatments depending on the individual's hair growth. Visible hair is treated during the first treatment and this disables only the follicles in the anagen (active) stage of the hair growth cycle. The follicles in the telogen (dormant) stage are not affected by Intense Pulsed Light but will become active again and will be treated at the next and subsequent treatments.

　　Almost any area of the body can be treated: the legs, back, upper lip, chin, underarms, back of the neck, bikini line, etc.

　　Not at all! With intense pulsed light treatments there�s no need to let hair grow out before you remove it. Light penetrates beneath the skin to reach the hair follicles. If you wish, you can get treated at regular intervals so that you skin remains virtually hair free all the time.

　　Intense pulsed light hair removal is faster, more comfortable, produces longer-lasting results, and can treat hair before it becomes visible. Additionally, hair grows back more slowly after intense pulsed light treatments and is thinner and lighter in colour.

　　Laser hair removal has many of the same benefits as intense pulsed light hair removal. Operating a laser, however, often requires more expertise than operating an intense pulsed light system.

　　Nothing is more embarrassing than facial hair, but unfortunately it is a very common problem. The quickest and most effective method to get rid of hair is to use Intense Pulsed Light [Intense Pulsed Light]. This involves a handpiece placed on the skin and a bright flash of broad-spectrum light is emitted. The wavelengths chosen are easily absorbed by melanin, which is the colour in the hair. The light is transmitted through skin tissue, and is absorbed by the root of the hair within the skin. Heat is produced which radiates out into the follicle wall destroying the cells so hair regrowth is impeded. Only a few treatments, at monthly intervals usually are needed to obtain stunning results. Unlike other methods of hair removal, you don�t have to have hair showing before having treatment. It is very quick, virtually painless and no redness or skin reaction to worry about.

　　There are various other temporary alternatives, like waxing, plucking and depilatory creams, but they are not the answer if you want some sort of permanency. The modern answer for hair removal is Intense Pulsed Light. Precise doses of light within specific wavelengths are emitted from a hand piece placed on the skin and moved along after every pulse. The light travels through skin and is absorbed by melanin, which is the colour or pigment in hair. When the light is absorbed, heat is produced which destroys the hair follicles. Usually only 4 � 6 treatments are required. Underarms respond particularly well so there is no need in this day and age for anybody to be wasting their time regularly shaving or waxing.
