IPL Hair Removal At DNA Laser & Aesthetics Clinic In SE London
IPL Hair Removal is an effective way to enjoy long-lasting or permanent hair reduction and we achieve excellent results on all skin types and hair types at DNA Laser Clinic in Canada Water.
IPL uses controlled pulses of light that are directed onto the skin where melanin converts the light energy into heat to destroy the hair follicles. You will require a series of treatments, with a few weeks in between each, as the majority of our hair is in the resting phase and IPL only works on growing hairs.
Please note: A patch test must be booked prior to this treatment so we can assess whether you are suitable for IPL hair removal. This can be booked online here.

Long-Lasting Hair Removal With IPL
Hair grows in three different cycles and we can only successfully treat hair with IPL during its growing stage. You will, therefore, require a course of 3-6 treatments if you want to achieve permanent hair reduction. Your hair growth cycles are affected by numerous factors such as the density of the hair, your ethnicity, age, and where on the body the hair is. The intervals between treatments are typically 1-3 months.
For optimum results, we also recommend you avoid tanning, waxing or shaving for at least 4 weeks prior to treatment. Your IPL Hair Removal specialist will explain all post- and -aftercare requirements to you when you come in for your patch test.
One question we are always asked is whether IPL Hair Removal is painful. Most people describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping the skin. Some people experience some temporary redness to the skin after treatment and may benefit from using a soothing gel.
