Required: Patch Test
Do this once before your first full treatment.
Shave a small test patch 24h before. Flash the area 3-5 times at the lowest level. Wait 24-48 hours. If skin looks normal (no blistering, burns, or prolonged redness), you are ready for a full session. Increase energy gradually over subsequent sessions.
Preparation Checklist
Preparation Checklist
No tanning
Prevents your skin from competing with hair follicles for light absorption.
Shave only
Keeps the hair root present (no waxing/plucking) but removes surface hair.
Clean skin
Prevents oils, deodorant, and lotions from reflecting light energy.
Pause actives
Reduces skin sensitivity caused by retinol, AHAs, and BHAs.
Also: No self-tanner for 2 weeks before treatment. DHA in self-tanners darkens the skin surface and can cause adverse reactions.
Simple steps. Real results.
A straightforward routine that helps you achieve smoother, longer-lasting hair reduction.
Shave the treatment area (do not epilate or wax). Clean and dry the skin completely.
Choose the large window for body areas or the small window for precision areas.
Press the energy level button to select your desired intensity (1-6).
Place the window flat against your skin. Press the trigger for a single flash or glide.
Turn off the device. Apply moisturizer and avoid sun exposure.
Never use on tanned, tattooed, or irritated skin. If SmartSensor shows red, do not proceed.

After Each Session
Post-treatment care
✔ DO
- Apply gentle moisturizer or aloe vera gel to treated areas
- Apply sunscreen (SPF 30+) to any treated areas exposed to sun for 48 hours
- Continue shaving between sessions as needed (hair will shed naturally)
✖ DO NOT
- Do not wax, pluck, or epilate between sessions (this removes the root IPL targets)
- Avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, or self-tanner for 2 weeks
- Avoid hot baths, saunas, and swimming pools for 24-48 hours
- Do not use retinol or chemical exfoliants on treated areas for 48 hours
Mild redness or warmth after a session is normal and resolves within hours. If you experience blistering, burns, or prolonged discomfort, stop treatment and consult your physician.
Your 12-Week Protocol
One session per area, once every two weeks.
For the first 4 sessions, treat every 2 weeks. After that, extend the interval to 4 weeks. A full protocol averages 10-12 sessions, but you should see significant results by week 12. Treat each area in the same session or split across days.
You are not removing hair. You are retraining your follicles to stop growing it.
After Week 12
Maintaining your results
Hair reduction with IPL is long-lasting but not always 100% permanent. Hormonal changes, new hair cycles, and other factors can cause occasional regrowth. Schedule maintenance sessions every 4-8 weeks as needed.
Common mistakes to avoid
| Waxing between sessions | Waxing, plucking, or epilating removes the hair root that IPL targets. Shave only. |
| Treating tanned skin | Tanned skin absorbs more light energy, increasing burn risk. Wait 2 weeks after sun exposure. |
| Skipping sessions | Gaps longer than 4 weeks can significantly delay your results, as you miss the active hair growth cycle. Stick to the schedule for the best reduction. |
| Expecting instant results | Treated hairs take 1-2 weeks to shed. Let them fall out naturally. |
