IPL – Intense Pulse Light Hair Removal

The Intense Pulse Light (IPL) laser hair removal system is a non-coherent laser. This is not strictly a laser, but an equivalent. The process uses the same principles as photothermolysis. The burst of light created by the IPL machine acts on the hair follicle in the same way as a laser would.

The IPL system is more flexible than laser hair removal, as there is no set laser wavelength. The wavelength can be set to suit you, along with the energy level, and the time you are exposed to the laser. These are chosen to damage the hair follicles while aiming to cause as little damage as possible to the tissues surrounding the follicles.
