IPL Hair Removal &
Advanced Medical Treatments
What is IPL hair removal?
When it’s used as a hair removal treatment, IPL uses light to heat your hair follicles in the desired area and prevents the hair from regrowing. Gentle pulses of light are absorbed by the hair root to destroy the follicle. The hair then falls out and you will experience hair reduction in that area.
​
Shaving can be time consuming and does not last long. On the other hand, with six sessions of IPL 70% of hair growth can be prevented permanently.

The Benefits of IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light, a type of light based treatment, similar to laser, that consists of multiple different wavelengths and the light is filtered to target a specific area on your body. This is different to laser therapy treatments that apply a more concentrated beam of light with one wavelength.
Intense Pulsed Light therapy is a non-invasive, fast and permanent treatment. The SkinBase IPL delivers results from the very first treatment.
​
Who is Intense Pulsed Light For?
The SkinBase IPL has proven effective on almost all skin types.
​
Is The SkinBase IPL treatment safe?
The SkinBase IPL system is a Medically CE certified system that has been independently tested and verified by one of the country’s leading experts on IPL.
​
Is The SkinBase IPL painful?
The system features a unique cryo-cooling handset which has an anaesthetic effect on the skin surface to provide the most comfortable treatment experience. So, although you may feel some mild discomfort during the treatment this is rare.
​
Which areas can be treated?
Unwanted hair can be removed from most parts of the body including legs, upper lip & chin, bikini line, underarm, back. Medical treatments can also be performed on most areas of the body.
​
How many treatments are needed?
For permanent hair reduction most areas of the body will need between 6-10 treatments however this can vary from client to client.
​
How does it feel – hair reduction?
A slight warm tingling sensation best describes the feeling experienced during a SkinBase IPL treatment. The SkinBase IPL is much more comfortable than most conventional methods like waxing, laser and electrolysis.
​
