How many treatments needed?
Hair growth is cyclical as hair follicles go through resting and growing phases. Only follicles in the growth phase and are destroyed by the heat. Resting hair follicles need to enter the growth phase before they can be destroyed by the IPL treatment.
It is, therefore, necessary to repeat the treatment at intervals until hair follicles have been through the growth phase. The length and timing of the growth cycles and the treatment are affected by numerous factors such as body site, hair density and thickness, ethnic origin or skin type, hormonal status and age.
Usually for facial areas up to 10 treatments may be required with 4 weekly intervals. Body areas could range from 4 to 8 treatments with 6 to 8 weekly interval.
