Questions And Answers About IPL

1. What is Intense Pulse Light?
   This incredible new therapy is based on emitting high intensity pulses of light to penetrate the skin to perform such treatments as Hair Removal, and Photo rejuvenation.
2. How does IPL remove hair?
   The Intense Light penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the Melanin in the hair. This absorption treats the hair, with the heat being transported to the nourishment structure of the hair (follicle). This is heated to 70oC for a millisecond thus destroying the follicle. Hundreds of follicles are destroyed by each flash, and the hairs then fall our in 1-2 weeks.
3. Can all types of hair be treated?
   The darker the hair (the richer the melanin content), the better the result. White and red hairs cannot be removed using this method.
4. Is IPL treatment painful?
   The sensation of pain is extremely variable from one individual to another. It depends on the concentration of Melanin in the skin, hair size and hair density. This is why the darker the skin, the greater the sensation. It should be noted that a sensation of prickling may persist for 1-2 weeks after a session.
5. Are there any secondary effects?
   In certain cases there may be redness in the treated area, local oedema or peri-follicular papillae (goose bumps). These effects will disappear several hours after the treatment, however in the majority of cases; there are no visible secondary effects.
6. How do we know if sufficient treatment has been given?
   Hair Removal: In the majority of cases, there is no immediate visible effect. It is possible, immediately after treatment to pull a hair using tweezers. If it can be removed without pulling on the skin, this is proof of a good result. Also if per-follicular papillae or redness appears around the hair follicle, this also indicated the treatment has been successful.
7. How many sessions are necessary?
   Hair: It is estimated that around 20% of hairs are in their growth phase at any one time. Normally 6 sessions should be recommended, however this may alter. (21 days apart)

Bargain Laser Hair Removal Leeds. Who pays? You The Client!

Many voucher companies are offering hair removal at a massively discounted rate! NOT inCleanse. WHY? We offer the same deal to our clients. The voucher deals generally don’t offer clients with a full course of treatment and skin assessment. Offering four or five sessions when in actual fact hair reduction with IPL requires 6 sessions. At the end of the course they are required to have extra sessions to complete the course so are then expected to pay out more money at a very inflated price to complete their treatment. Generally clients are rushed, they don’t have a patch test and the treatments are not carried out by a Registered Nurse. inCleanse have seen the after affects of this with clients coming to us with burning and hyper pigmentation caused by under qualified practitioners. inCleanse hair removal is carried out by Senior nurses to whom carry out a full skin assessment and patch test prior to commencing any treatments.
