What are the advantages of IPL?

Some of the advantages to IPL hair removal treatments include:

• The light beam may be safe for a wider spectrum of skin tones and hair colors than some other types of lasers
• The FDA has approved IPL for permanent hair reduction
• IPL hair removal may be more cost effective than laser treatments, because there is less time involved
• There is less risk of skin damage from an IPL treatment than laser hair removal
• IPL lends itself well to larger areas of hair removal
• IPL is reported as less painful than laser hair removal by many patients

• Larger areas may be treated at one time.
• It works equally well with light or dark hair and skin.
• There is less chance for scarring and pigmentation change.
