IPL Hair Removal – Better Way to Remove Unwanted Hair

The problem of hair removal has been plaguing women for decades. In years past, the options have not always been ideal. Creams and random gadgets just do not seem to offer enough benefit. Thankfully, in the modern day, there are now superior options in hair removal. Today, there is a better solution to lessen hair in embarrassing areas. While there are staunch defenders of the convenience of temporary fixes such as shaving, depilators or waxing, the weekly extra 20 minutes in the shower is proving to be more and more of a hassle especially in the face of more practical options.
Technology is taking the beauty industry by storm and hair removal is definitely not being ignored. New methods of depilation using light treatment have been introduced in the form of laser or IPL hair removal. While laser technology is easy enough to understand, IPL, which stands for Intense Pulsed Light, is a relative new comer in the hair removal industry. While laser is technically a form of intense light, it is far more intense and skin penetrating than IPL technology. There is also a need to dispel the misconception that both methods are the same since there are definitely notable differences. Laser treatment uses just one intense beam of light to target small areas of the skin to damage hair follicles. IPL hair removal on the other hand is laser’s sophisticated skin conscious younger sister. IPL is a highly customizable treatment, which sends multiple beams of diffused light of varying wavelengths to your skin. This means that IPL can still promise damage to hair follicles but with minimal skin damage.
So which is better? Just like other beauty procedures, the rule is different strokes for different folks. The satisfaction you will derive from either treatment is dependent on three factors, namely, sensitivity of skin, stubbornness of hair growth and the time and money you are willing to invest in either treatment.
If you are part of the majority of the population with relatively minimal hair growth (the kind that just strikes you as annoying, not overly troublesome), IPL hair removal is still your best bet. Since it offers diffused light technology, its multiple beams of light are scattered throughout a wider patch of skin, thereby minimizing the damage inflicted. This is not to say that IPL is less effective than laser technology, while laser emits more intense beams of light, the wavelength of IPL treatment is still more than sufficient to remove those unwanted hair patches. As an added bonus, it is also faster and cheaper than laser technology, which would give you more bang for your buck.
Laser treatment should only be used in the rare cases where your hair grows excessively. However you should note that laser technology comes with the potential to damage skin in the long term. Because of these factors, This treatment should be considered first, and laser technology should only be reserved for the really persistent cases.…
