What this service offers
Eliminates Dark Stubble & Shadowing
Destroys roots deep beneath the surface, removing the dark shadow and coarse stubble that shaving leaves behind.
Built-In Contact Cooling System
Uses integrated sapphire skin cooling to safeguard delicate forearm and elbow skin, ensuring a smooth, painless session.
Prevents Ingrown Hairs & Bumps
Stop hair growth at the root to eliminate painful ingrown hair bumps and follicle irritation common with waxing.
What to expect
Assess hair, skin and the area
Discuss hair colour, skin tone, recent tanning and medication. IPL uses intense pulsed light and is not the same device as a laser.
Confirm test and protection
Ask about the device-specific patch test, preparation and protective eyewear before treatment of the agreed hair-removal area.
Review skin response
Discuss cooling, sun protection and when the treated skin is ready for normal products or another session.
Preparation and aftercare
Before your appointment
- Tell the practitioner about tanning, medicines and previous light-treatment reactions.
- Confirm when to shave and whether waxing or plucking must be avoided; the hair-removal and test instructions should be specific to the device.
After your appointment
- Protect the treated area from sun exposure and avoid rubbing or picking at irritated skin.
- Get device-specific advice before resuming hair removal or strong skin products. Blistering, burns or worsening pain should be assessed.

FAQs
Is Full Arm IPL hair removal painful?
Most clients describe the sensation as a light rubber band snap with a brief warming sensation. Thanks to built-in contact cooling, treatment across sensitive areas like the inner forearm and wrist is comfortable and well-tolerated.
Does Full Arm IPL include hands and fingers?
Yes! At Galeo Beauty, our Full Arm IPL treatment covers the complete arm unit, including the upper arms, elbows, forearms, wrists, back of hands, and tops of fingers for a uniform hair-free appearance.
How many IPL sessions will I need for full arm hair removal?
Because hair grows in distinct cycles, a series of 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended to achieve optimal, permanent hair reduction.
Can I shave my arms between IPL appointments?
Yes! You can and should shave between sessions whenever necessary. However, avoid waxing, plucking, or epilating, as these methods remove the follicle root needed for the light beam to target during your next appointment.
How should I prepare my arms before my IPL appointment?
Shave your full arms, hands, and fingers cleanly with a fresh razor 12 to 24 hours prior to your session. Ensure skin is free of lotions, perfumes, self-tanners, or sunscreen on the day of your treatment.
