Ellipse IPL Hair Removal
An alternative method of hair removal, 90% reduction using intense pulse light. Compared to waxing, laser hair removal can give you longer lasting results and in some cases permanent removal.
Top Up sessions of 3 are advised 6 months after final treatment has been completed. These courses are discounted for existing clients, on areas already treated.
How does the Ellipse IPL treatment work?
To achieve long lasting or in some cases permanent hair removal, it is necessary to destroy the hair follicle from which individual hairs grow. Controlled pulses of light penetrate the epidermis and are absorbed by melanin in the hair contained in the follicle. Melanin converts the light energy into heat. This heat is transferred to the hair follicle, which is destroyed, making it unable to produce a new hair. Hair in the resting (telogen stage) are treated later. The treatment is only effective on growing hairs as these are still attached to the follicle.
A course is recommended to obtain 90% reduction.
