How Does IPL Hair Removal Work?

IPL hair removal - how does it work? What makes it different from other hair removal methods?

A: IPL Hair Reduction

IPL and Lasers both use light absorption to generate the heat within hair follicles to cause them to fall out. The difference is in the spectrum. IPL uses the full light spectrum (think of a strong flashbulb) whereas lasers deliver a specific wavelength of light (red, blue, green). Both can lead to hair loss when used properly. IPL may take more treatments than a laser, but may also be less expensive in the long run.
