All You Need to Know About IPL Hair Removal Treatments

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) hair removal is an option that many peo­ple are con­sid­er­ing these days, and it’s no won­der why. There are numer­ous rea­sons why opt­ing for an in-home salon expe­ri­ence is a good idea. Con­tinue read­ing to find out all that’s nec­es­sary to know about at-home hair removal with IPL machines.

Hair Removal at Home is Safe

Some peo­ple are ner­vous about the safety of Intense Pulsed Light hair removal sim­ply because it’s not a com­monly under­stood sys­tem. Intense Pulsed Light machines have been safely used for years in salons around the globe. At-home machines are smaller than sys­tems tra­di­tion­ally used in salons and they are designed specif­i­cally for use in a home. For addi­tional safety, machines come with safety glasses and detailed instruc­tions that peo­ple can fol­low with ease and reli­a­bil­ity. Not only are the machines safe, there are no stud­ies indi­cat­ing health risks to some­one who uses the Intense Pulsed Light as directed.

Results are Long-Lasting and Permanent

Wax­ing and shav­ing do not present long-lasting results com­pared to the reg­u­lar use of an Intense Pulsed Light machine. Shav­ing needs to occur every few days so that skin stays smooth, and some areas are more del­i­cate to shave than oth­ers. Who wants to be shav­ing every sec­ond day just to know that the hair will grow back again?
Wax­ing offers ques­tion­able results as well. Wax­ing can be down­right painful, and every month, or some­times less often, the process needs to hap­pen all over again. The wax is gooey, the strips are chal­leng­ing to use, and the spe­cial oils to apply after­ward are messy and annoy­ing. Doing that every month? No thank you.

Remov­ing Hair at Home is Cost-Effective

At-home hair removal cuts down on all sorts of unnec­es­sary costs. Dis­cussed above were the costs of wax­ing strips, waxes, oils, gels, razors, and foams. Those are all things that come along with shav­ing and wax­ing from home. What about going to a salon for pro­fes­sional hair removal ser­vices? Salons can get pricey at even one visit. Salon costs include gra­tu­ities, com­mut­ing costs, and prod­uct pur­chases. The cost can be end­less, espe­cially when some­one heads to a salon on a reg­u­lar basis. Hair removal from home has sev­eral ben­e­fits, one of them being the lower cost.

Hair Removal Can Hap­pen in a Com­fort­able Home Environment

Hair removal can be quite an inti­mate expe­ri­ence. Some­times there are areas of the body where it just doesn’t feel com­fort­able to expose to a stranger, or even to a friend. At-home hair removal is a way for some­one to remain com­fort­able in their own liv­ing envi­ron­ment, while hav­ing the per­sonal expe­ri­ence of hair removal.
Intense Pulsed Light treat­ments are a safe alter­na­tive to hair removal at a salon. In addi­tion, IPLoffers long-lasting results. Cost-comparison will prove that at-home hair removal is a highly afford­able way to take care of the body, and the com­forts of the home envi­ron­ment just can­not be beat. Sav­ing money and time are two of the many ben­e­fits of using an Intense Pulsed Light machine at home.
