Laser treatments use a different light source and target a more concentrated area. What’s the difference between IPL and laser hair removal?ĭon’t confuse IPL with laser hair removal. They work by either gliding over skin, which is best for larger surface areas of the body such as your legs, or stamping (pressing onto the area), which is better for smaller areas where you need more precision. Most of the best IPL hair removal devices are suitable for the body and face. Energy, frequency, skin and hair colour are all determining factors in the efficacy of the treatment. It directs energy at the melanin (the pigment that gives the skin/hair its colour) in the hair follicle, heating up the hair right down to the root (where most of the melanin is concentrated) to damage the follicle without damaging the surrounding skin and and break the cycle of regrowth.ĭon’t expect instant results, but with regular use IPL can help prevent unwanted hair from reaching the skin’s surface. IPL is a broad-spectrum light that’s scattered across the skin to help with long-term hair reduction.
