Q :How does IPL work on permanent hair removal? A:IPL devices emit at specific wavelengths which are absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicle(pigment gives hair color). When the pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the IPL light, energy is converted into heat, resulting in thermal damage to the hair follicle. This thermal damage caused delayed regrowth of the hair and complete permanent destruction of the hair follicle.
Q:IS IPL RIGHT FOR ME? A:it's not suitable for very dark skin. It also won't work on grey, white or red hair. This is because there is not enough melanin in the hair shaft and the IPL effectively can't see the hair.
