IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light Treatment, is used to remove unwanted body hair and treat pigment or vascular lesions. IPL may target dark hair by employing a broad spectrum of light. Dark hair absorbs light, heats up, and is damaged down to the root, similar to how wearing black on a bright day might cause you to overheat. General IPL treatments offer one significant benefit over other hair removal methods such as waxing or plucking: they are permanent. Any live hair follicle that is treated is destroyed and will not regrow. IPL therapy for permanent hair reduction is more effective on darker hair and may be less successful on lighter hair. Your undesirable body hair will be semi-permanently decreased after the IPL treatment is completed. In this article, we will look into different issues that are treated via IPL Treatment, the preparation and procedure when undergoing IPL, and the disadvantages of IPL treatment. Last but not least, we will also venture into New Beauty Australia’s A3 Laser Hair Removal Treatment – a safer and more effective option compared to IPL therapy as it targets all types of hair width and colour for smoother and silkier skin!

You may appear younger since your skin colour is better even after IPL. You can also recuperate quickly because the radiation doesn't affect other tissues.

Your skin may sting as a result of the pulses. Some compare the sensation to getting hit with a rubber band. These treatments may take 20 to 30 minutes, solely conditional on the body region of the body and the width of the treated area.
Three to six sessions may be required to obtain the desired outcomes. These IPL therapies should have a gap of about a month to allow your skin to recuperate. Six to twelve sessions are necessary for hair removal.
