Default IPL Laser Hair Removal with No Skin Problems

IPL (intense pulsed light) is one of the most promising technologies in medical aesthetics.

All began in 1979 when Professor Marc Clement of the University of Wales has accidentally exposed his arm in front of a laser and found that hair never grows in that area.

Since then technology has advanced greatly, so that today's Intense Pulsed Light solve many skin problems.

The principle of action is a very intense light pulse that is absorbed by different pigments of skin, generating different effects. Unlike laser using a single wavelength (single color), IPL technology uses a series of special filters to select different wavelengths of light spectrum.

These different wavelengths are those that give the technique specified action on different pigments. Targets (pigments) that captures light is called Chromophore. Absorption of light by them generates heat, destroying the structures that contain pigments.

IPL technique has multiple applications. Can be used to remove the hair (permanent hair removal), to treat acne, skin rejuvenation.

The advantages are numerous. First is a painless procedure! It is minimally invasive and pose no risk of infection. By using it there is no risk of developing skin cancer. Efficiency has been proven in numerous clinical trials, with approval from the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The risk of adverse reactions is small.

It requires many precautions, the most important being the use of sunscreen creams for sun exposure.

There are some contraindications: pregnancy, consumption of drugs (some antibiotics, antidepressants, anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids), inflammatory disease in that area, tattoos, semi-permanent makeup in that area.

The risk of adverse reactions is small, they can be: local heat sensation or itching during the session, redness in that area that disappears after about 48 hours, hypo - or transient hyperpigmentation (especially for dark skin).

IPL is a new, safe, non-invasive and effective way to treat various skin problems. With just a few sessions you get rid of unwanted hair, pigmentation spots and acne.

I don't trust all these laser equipments in the market today. The reason is that a laser light has the ability to cure acne and also remove hair which is good but a laser light also has the power to ionize your blood. you may end up with a skin cancer all other health related problems. If you will light to remove hair from your skin, use the ancient technique.
