Shaving, waxing, epilation, depilatory creams, laser hair removal - we all know these words very well. Unfortunately, we're also used to hair removal hurting. We bravely clench our teeth and go to our next wax appointment. We have also come to terms with that.

Yes, that's just how life is. Permanent hair removal won't work anyway. But is that true? We live in such an advanced world where artificial intelligence is being developed and where we will likely get around with flying cars in the future. Why should hair removal hurt?

Of course not! Clever minds have come together and invented a device that puts an end to suffering. Not only is it less uncomfortable, but it also makes for permanent hair removal. This method is called IPL - Intense Pulsed Light.

In Germany, you can completely trust the experts at Hairless Skin for this method. If you are looking for permanent hair removal Munich Schwabing, this is the place for you.

Permanent hair removal with the IPL method

What is the difference between IPL and laser hair removal?

You are probably familiar with shaving, waxing and depilatory creams. But do you know what the difference between laser hair removal and the IPL method is?

Both methods use light to heat the hair follicles and stop them from growing. However, the technology with which the light is supplied varies widely. A laser generates a very specific type of light that consists of just one wavelength or one colour of light.

Everything moves in one direction, which creates a single beam like a laser pointer. IPL devices like the Candela Sirius work with a wide range of light wavelengths to create a single white beam. This beam is similar to natural light and can appear with an orange / red tinge when the device flashes on the skin. Think of it as a camera flash.

The laser method is also permanent, but from my point of view, it is associated with more skin irritations and other side effects. IPL treatment has hardly any such side effects, it is gentler and possible for almost all hair and skin types. That really sounds like magic.

Hairless Skin has years of experience in this field and will provide you with professional treatment. You can completely trust the team for permanent hair removal in Munich.

How does IPL hair removal work?

For hair removal, both methods work the same way.

The light (laser or IPL) enters the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft.

The hair shaft and follicle heat up through the absorption of light.

When the right amount of light energy is used, the hair follicle cells heat up to a high temperature, which disrupts the hair growth cycle.

Depending on a number of factors, the effect can be permanent or temporary.

What does that mean for the real deal?

Due to the way the technologies work, the two methods differ in terms of:

• Treatment time - Since the beam of light is very concentrated in laser treatments, laser devices have a very small treatment time window. Thanks to the wider flash of light used in IPL, the devices give a larger treatment window and can thus cover a much larger area at once. That means the treatment is much faster than this with a laser.

• Protection - Studies show that the rays of laser treatment are often more sensitive to the skin than those of IPL treatment.

• Price - Laser light is expensive to generate. Therefore, you will have to spend a lot more on this method than on the IPL method.

• Safety - Laser light is very powerful and can often be dangerous. The advantage of IPL treatment is that it is much safer because the light is less concentrated.
