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 .
