IPL Hair Removal

March, 2017

Are you tired of unwanted hair? Are you getting ingrown hairs? Have you ever imagined yourself free of embarrassing facial and body hair? Or imagined being free from daily shaving? Now with IPL hair removal, you can forget about ingrown hairs too!

IPL Hair Removal is an FDA-approved permanent hair reduction method. Intense Pulsed Light directs light right at the skin which converts to heat energy and the heat targets the hair follicles (bulb/root) and prevents their growth. There are about 6 sessions for the procedure. However, the total number of treatments will vary between individuals.

How does it feel during treatment?

Each pulse of light feels like a slight sting or pinch similar to when you get with a rubber band. You do not need local anesthesia and most people tolerate the treatment well.

Does the treatment work better on certain hair colors?

IPL’s unique design offers a tailored treatment according to hair color, texture and body area. Clients with light skin and dark hair experience best results.

Q: What is IPL Hair Reduction?
A: An Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy approach to eliminating unwanted hair provides the ultimate treatment solution. Unlike many other hair removal methods, photoepilation (hair removal using light) leaves your skin looking and feeling smooth and soft.

Q: How does IPL Hair Reduction Work?
A: Without damaging the surrounding skin, controlled flashes of light penetrate the area of skin and absorb into the hair follicles. The heat generated in the process targets, damages, and destroys the hair and its potential for regrowth. Given the flexibility and uniqueness of IPL, large spot areas can also be quickly created to treat back, shoulders, abdomen, and legs. It only takes minutes to treat smaller facial regions such as the lip, chin, and beard.

New Treatments: IPL Therapy

February, 2014

As we enter the New Year and settling into our new location in Brighton, we are happy to introduce new treatments using IPL technology. IPL or Intense Pulsed Light Technology utilizes specific wavelengths of light to target various skin conditions. Our licensed estheticians Irina and Lana perform various treatments using ILP that include hair removal, skin rejuvenation, pigmentation therapy, acne therapy and vascular therapy.

Hair removal

First, it is a pain-free treatment for permanent hair reduction to eliminate unwanted hair. The light is absorbed by the melanin in the hair, with the highest concentration of it located in the bulb (root) of the hair. As the heat from the light weakens the bulb, hair falls out and unable to re-grow in the same place. The number of treatments will be determent by your esthetician.

Skin rejuvenation

It is also a process that improves signs of aging including wrinkles, loss of skin tone and elasticity. The wavelengths of light penetrate the skin and stimulate collagen production. As a result, wrinkles smooth out and the skin becomes more elastic. Your esthetician will determine the number and frequency of the treatment for the best results.

Pigmentation Therapy

Furthermore, it eliminates dark spots (freckles and age spots) caused by sun exposure. The pulses of light are absorbed by the excess melanin and cause melanin sells to break up, leaving the skin more even. The number of treatments will depend on the level of sun damage and will be determent by your esthetician. To prevent further damage use at least SPF 30 moisturizer every day.

Acne therapy

In addition, it treats active acne, prevents future acne breakouts and improves acne scars. The pulsating light penetrates through the tissues and destroys acne caused by bacteria in the skin and overproduction of oil by the oil glands. In addition, in treating acne scars IPL reduces redness and discoloration for more even skin tone. The number of treatments will be determent by your esthetician.

Vascular Therapy

Lastly, IPL treats dilated capillaries and cherry spots. Hemoglobin in the blood vessels absorbs the light while the heat injures the vessel walls causing the vessels to collapse. Consequently, the body discards the collapsed vessels in a natural way. With each treatment, the affected area will be less red. Moreover, only one session is necessary for minor vascular abnormalities. Bigger treatments would require several treatments and your esthetician will determine that.

IPL is non-invasive, virtually painless and extremely effective. Make an appointment for a consultation today and we will design a personal treatment plan to target your specific needs.
