What is IPL?

Example of IPL application

IPL is a treatment method for permanent hair removal and stands for Intense Pulsed Light. In contrast to other treatment methods, it does not use a laser but a xenon light source. During treatment, the hair roots are destroyed by the light pulses and can therefore no longer grow back.

The treatment must be performed several times because hair can only be destroyed during the growth phase; nevertheless, an improvement can already be seen after the first treatment.

One problem with IPL treatments is that, due to the lack of the protein melanin in light-colored hair, it cannot be destroyed by xenon light.

For optimal results and to protect the skin, using a contact medium is recommended. We especially recommend IPL gel developed for laser hair removal, which has both a cooling and nourishing effect.
