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.

 

Patch Test

A patch test is required 48 hours prior to your 1st treatment.
Complimentary – 30 mins

The science bit: The visible light source used in this procedure is attracted to melanin, which is found in hair.  Because there is more melanin found in darker hair the darker the hair is, the more effective the treatment.  During the treatment an Optical Coupling gel is applied to the skin to aid the treatment.  The applicator is then pressed onto the skin and the light energy is absorbed into the hair causing a heat reaction to destroy the follicle.
