How does IPL Hair Removal Work ?
The hair cycle growth will be slowed down , damaging the active hairs at the time of your treatment. These are called the active stage (anagen phase). The hair in the follicle will obsorb the light down the hair shaft
This is why a course of eight treatment isrequired to target each follicle at the anagen stage . Only 10-20% are in the anagen phase at one time.
We are unable to treat fair, grey or ginger hair .
