Is It the Same IPL Device (Technology) Used for Treating Dark Spots Used for Hair Removal As Well?

Thank you for your question. You can use IPL device for brown spots and hair removal, but I would recommend using Yag or Alexandrite for laser hair removal for best results. I would recommend being treated under the supervision of a Board Certified or Plastic Surgeon for safest and best treatment options. I hope this helps.

IPl can help eliminate hair but you wont see much difference as compared to actually doing laser hair removal. Using IPL for hair removal would require high setting and might make the skin sensative or irritated. Please apply your spf to prevent any pigmentation.

Best wishes

IPL is best for rosacea and sun damaged skin, although many clinics who can't afford a true laser hair removal system (e.g. salons & spas), will use IPL to also remove hair which is less effective and more risky than a true laser such as the lightsheer duet. ~ Dr. Benjamin Barankin, Toronto Dermatology Centre.
