What this service offers
Eliminates Shadowing & Stubble
Destroys hair roots deep beneath the epidermis, removing the dark shadow tint and prickliness left behind by shaving or dermaplaning.
Dual Action: Smooths & Brightens
Broad-spectrum IPL pulses help stimulate collagen and fade mild sun spots while permanently reducing dark hair growth.
Integrated Sapphire Contact Cooling
Built-in skin cooling technology keeps delicate facial tissue protected and comfortable throughout the procedure.
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 Face IPL hair removal painful?
Discomfort is minimal and feels like a quick warm snap or light rubber band flick. Because facial skin is delicate, our advanced device uses built-in sapphire contact cooling to keep skin temperature low and comfortable throughout the session.
Will IPL work on fine blond 'peach fuzz' on the face?
IPL relies on melanin (pigment) in the hair shaft to convert light energy into heat. It works exceptionally well on dark, brown, or coarse facial hair. Very pale blond, grey, white, or red vellus hair ('peach fuzz') contains little pigment and may not absorb IPL light effectively.
How many IPL sessions will I need for full face hair removal?
Because facial hair growth is hormonally influenced and grows in cycles, a series of 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart is recommended to achieve optimal, long-lasting hair reduction.
Can I wax, pluck, or thread my face between IPL appointments?
No. You must avoid waxing, plucking, or threading between sessions because these methods pull the follicle root out entirely. The root must remain intact for the IPL light to target during your next session. You can, however, shave or dermaplane if needed.
How should I prepare my face before my IPL appointment?
Shave your full face cleanly with a fresh facial razor 12 to 24 hours prior to your appointment. Ensure your skin is completely free from makeup, moisturizers, self-tanners, or sunscreens when you arrive.
