What is IPL?

IPL is a non-invasive skin treatment

…which emits powerful bursts of light energy to treat sun-damaged skin, wrinkles, and unwanted hair growth without damaging the surface of your skin.

FAUSTINA IPL systems use hand held flash lamps to release micro pulses of light across a broad band of visible wavelengths. Not to be confused with laser hair removal, IPL is short for Intense Pulsed Light – an innovative technology where gentle pulses of light put hairs into the resting phase. These hairs naturally shed in the following couple of weeks post-treatment, and any re-growth is inhibited, resulting in silky-smooth skin for longer. All you have to do is use the device every 4-5 weeks for 3-6 months (don’t worry, you’ll notice a reduction of up to 92% after just three treatments) and enjoy continuously smooth, summer-ready skin.

So, does IPL hair removal really work?

The answer is yes – absolutely!
When the IPL light (pulsed light) is absorbed by melanin found in brown or black hair, it is then converted to heat, subsequently destroying the hair. When the hair is in its active growth phase, it is attached to the base of the follicle with a blood supply.

When you are able to destroy the hair in this growth phase, you also destroy the follicle itself, and render it incapable of producing future hair.

However, in later phases of growth, when the hair is not attached, the follicle may not be destroyed, and will replace the destroyed hair some weeks later. This is why laser hair removal treatments must be repeated several times, and at specific time intervals. You are attempting to reach the maximum amount of hair follicles in their active growth phase in order to achieve the greatest percentage of long term hair reduction.

ipl vs laser difference resized

What is the difference between laser and IPL?

The key difference between laser and IPL is the type of light. IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a broadband pulsed light source, whereas laser is a monochromatic coherent light source.

Both methods target the melanin in the hair follicle and permanent results can be expected from both. 

The new technology devices, IPL or Laser, are designed to work with 3 different wavelengths (755nm, 810nm and 1060nm), being able to adapt hair removal treatments to the needs of all kinds of patients during each season of the year. It can work with most skin and hair types.

755nm: it suitable for the light-coloured and thin hair.
808nm: Suitable for almost all hair types
1064nm: it mainly provides solutions for dark hair colour.

Energy, frequency and hair colour are all determining factors in the efficacy of the treatment, while the light source, whether it is a laser or an intense pulsed flash of light, plays a minor role.

Which hair types are suitable for use with our IPLs?

Your hair color matters. A lot.

It’s important to note that if you have red/ginger, grey/white, or white blonde hair, IPL will not work for you.

Hair removal IPL works by targeting the melanin inside the root of your hair, which all 3 of these hair colours lack — effectively rendering the technology useless.
