The Evolution of Hair Removal: From Waxing to IPL
Throughout history, both men and women have engaged in various methods of hair removal. From ancient Egyptian techniques using tweezers made from seashells, to the more modern methods of shaving and waxing, the quest for smooth skin is nothing new. Today, we stand at a new frontier of hair removal technology - the era of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
What is IPL?
IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light, is a technology used in various skin treatments, including hair removal and photofacials. A handheld flashgun is passed across the skin, delivering a spectral range of light that targets specific structures and chromophores in the skin that absorb the light energy and convert it to heat, which damages the targeted area.
How Does IPL Compare to Other Hair Removal Methods?
Past hair removal methods often included shaving, waxing, and hair removal creams. Though these methods can be efficient in the short-term, they often require frequent upkeep and can result in skin irritation.
On the other hand, with IPL technology, you can achieve long lasting results, without needing to worry about razor burns or ingrown hairs. IPL works by destroying the root of the hair follicle, which reduces hair growth over time. It is a relatively painless method and can be used anywhere on the body.
