OPERATION

IPL epilator hair removal technology is well-known and sophisticated. It has undergone more than 15 years of clinical
trials around the world, demonstrating the effectiveness and safety of long-term hair removal.
The IPL hair removal technology is based on the selective photothermolysis theory, which uses the energy of optical
radiation to stop hair growth. To achieve this thermal effect, the hair root needs to selectively absorb heat energy and
convert it into heat. This selectivity is achieved as most of the optical radiation is absorbed by the hair bulb pigment,
while the surrounding skin and tissue remain cool. This heat effect painlessly removes hair with roots and prevents their
regrowth. This scientifically verified technology ensures fast and lasting results.
The amount of pigment in a person's skin determines not only the colour but also the degree of risk to which the user
is exposed when using a light-based hair removal technology, regardless of which one. The darker the skin, the higher
the risk.

INFLUENCE OF HAIR GROWTH CYCLE ON PHOTOEPILATION
Melanin is a pigment found in body that allows light to be absorbed and subsequently converted into heat to stop hair
growth. The more melanin in the hair, the darker its colour and the more light it can absorb, increasing the efficiency of
photoepilation.
The hair growth cycle has three stages - Anagen phase, Catagen phase and Telogen phase. These three stages play an
important part in the photoepilation process. The Anagen phase is the period of hair growth, while the Catagen and
Telogen phases are resting periods. The hair growth cycle lasts approximately 18-24 months.
Most hair follicles are in one of the two resting phases. The IPL technology is efficient only when the hair is in the growth
phase. All hairs are never in the growth phase at the same time. It is therefore necessary to understand the growth cycle
of follicles in order to permanently remove hair.
