Frustrated
with unwanted hair? Tired of shaving, waxing or plucking
that leaves you suffering with razor burns, ingrown
hairs, breakouts or hyperpigmentation? Now there's a
permanent way that is safe, fast and affordable!
Men
and women of all skin colors suffering with unwanted
facial or body hair can be safely and effectively
treated.
Intense
pulse light treatment is an effective method of treating
unwanted hair. Unwanted hair may be caused by medical
conditions (hirsutism, hypertrichosis and other
disorders).
The
purpose of the treatment is to achieve cosmetic
improvements by reducing hair growth by using intense
light pulse to destroy hair follicles. Treatments
using this method will not cure any medical conditions
causing unwanted hair.
IPL
is a special type of light treatment that is actually
not even a laser. The concept of burning off hair
follicles so that they do not grow back. The light
travels through a gel usually aloe vera that is put on
the skin. Laser technology has significantly improved
over the years and systems like IPL were just developed
as recently as three to four years ago.
Light
energy is sent through the outer skin, the epidermis and
energy is concentrated on the dermis, the deeper part of
the skin. Because the light generates heat, it
stimulates cells in the body that go on to form more
collagen, as much as 20% more.
Post-operative
recommendations should be followed in order to ensure
the best possible results. Exposure to the sun and
excessive heat must be avoided for 3 to 6 months after
the treatment, and a sun block of SPF 20 or greater must
be used on the exposed skin areas.
