Do you dream of long-lasting and painless hair removal? Pulsed light hair removal is for you! Exit the wax and the razor. The pulsed light epilator promises convincing results from the first use. But concretely, how does it work? Focus on this small aesthetic revolution.
Are you tired of having to shave every other day, but the idea of using wax or an electric epilator scares you? Do not panic! The pulsed light epilator or IPL (intense pulse light) is here to save you!
The pulsed light epilator: what is it?
It acts in the same way as the laser. A flash of light directly transformed into heat is sent to the brown pigment of the hair to burn it from the root. Regrowth will be slower and slower with more delicate strands, and pulsed light sessions will become less frequent. His advantages?
The pulsed light epilator does not irritate.
Despite the heat emitted, this method is painless.
No risk of ingrown hair since it is burned from the bulb.
It represents an investment at the moment that proves to be an economical solution in the long term.
Is the pulsed light epilator suitable for everyone?
This device is mainly aimed at fair skin with dark hair. Melanin being, in fact, the triggering element of the device, the effectiveness will therefore be less on tanned skin, which can even cause burns. Be aware that pulsed light hair removal is avoided on a tattoo; the light rays could damage it.
The pulsed light epilator is also contraindicated for pregnant and breastfeeding women, people with diabetes, heart disease, under treatment with certain medications (anticoagulants, antibiotics, analgesics, etc.).
