We know summer is only just on the way out but now is actually a really good time to start a course of IPL hair reduction to have smooth, hair-free legs for next summer.

Why is that?

IPL treatments need to be spaced apart. For the legs, that means about every 4-6 weeks. Only some of your hairs are in the correct stage of growth at any one time for permanent removal and so it can take a good number of months to complete your course. The earlier you start, the more hair-free you will be by next summer!

How does it work?

During IPL hair reduction treatments, the light is absorbed by the melanin in the hair and is converted into heat. This damages the follicle making it unable to support further hair growth. The number of treatments required will vary but you should expect to see significant results within 3-6 treatments. A full course of 6 to 10 treatments may be required to achieve long-lasting results. Treatments should be no more than every 4-6 weeks apart on each area being treated.

Is it permanent?

As with all permanent IPL hair reduction, you may still get some regrowth. Hormonal changes can cause hair to regrow too. Any hair you do have will be much softer and far less noticeable than the hair that you used to have. You will require a course of treatments for best results, and we recommend a top-up every now and then,  your therapist will be able to work with you to establish how many treatments you need to stay fuzz-free. IPL can be used all over the body including; upper lip, back, arms, chin, bikini line and underarms.

Rebecca Willshee Nail and Beauty Specialist

Testimonial: “JC was so low, suicidal at points. Sore, red, angry, his skin was awful, we had tried everything and doctors you name it. We reached out to Becky, who was wonderful. My son was quiet and withdrawn, lacked confidence and self esteem, and locked himself away from the world. Becky booked us in for a consultation to discuss different options of treatments and we decided the new hydro treatment would be the best option. We started the course and JC was nervous but Becky was great with him talking him through everything, step by step! As we went each time JC’s skin got better and better, but also the difference in him was huge, he was gaining confidence, shoulders back, head held high. We have watched his skin change from this red, aggressive, angry skin that was sore, acne was debilitating to him but now he is confident, holds his head up high and has even got his first job! We are so proud. When we met Becky I felt confident she would help us get his skin better and back on track but what has actually happened is skin looks amazing but to see our son gain confidence has been the biggest win! Teens often get pushed aside, put on string meds and told “it’s just your age” but this isn’t what they want to hear, but The SkinBase treatments Becky has done has changed his life! We cannot thank you enough Becky! JC is continuing with the treatments as it still gets the odd breakouts but the scarring is still improving week in week out. The hydro Facial is just amazing and we cannot recommend it enough and of course Becky and her passion for skin and helping people is wonderful!”
