Unwanted arm hair can be time-consuming to manage with daily shaving or painful waxing. At Face Facts Buxton, our IPL Full Arm Hair Removal treatment offers a safe, long-lasting solution for smooth, hair-free skin. Using advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, we target the hair follicle directly, significantly reducing regrowth over a course of sessions.
How IPL Works
- Light Pulses – The IPL device emits short, broad pulses of light.
- Melanin Absorption – The pigment in the hair (melanin) absorbs the light.
- Heat Conversion – This light energy turns into heat, damaging the follicle.
- Growth Inhibition – Damaged follicles are unable to regrow hair, giving lasting results.
Because hair grows in cycles, IPL is most effective on hairs in the active growth phase (anagen). Multiple treatments ensure all follicles are targeted at the right stage.

The Treatment Process
- Consultation – We assess your skin and hair type, carry out a patch test, and create a tailored plan.
- Preparation – Arms should be shaved 24 hours before treatment and free of sun exposure or fake tan.
- Application – A cooling gel may be applied before the IPL device is placed on the skin.
- Light Pulses – The device delivers controlled flashes of light across the arms.
- Aftercare – Mild redness or swelling is normal and subsides quickly. SPF and gentle skincare are recommended post-treatment.
