At **Face Facts Buxton**, our IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment offers a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution. Using advanced light technology, we help you achieve smoother, clearer skin and reduce regrowth over time. * * * ## How IPL Works - **Targeting Melanin** – The IPL device emits broad-spectrum light, which is absorbed by the melanin in the hair. - **Heat Conversion** – The light energy is converted into heat, damaging the follicle. - **Hair Growth Cycle** – IPL only works on hairs in their active growth phase, so multiple sessions are needed. - **Gradual Reduction** – With each treatment, hair growth becomes lighter and less noticeable. * * * ## Benefits of Lip & Chin IPL - **Long-Lasting Results** – Enjoy smoother skin with reduced regrowth after a course of treatments. - **Gentle on Facial Skin** – Less irritation compared to waxing or frequent shaving. - **Prevents Ingrown Hairs** – By targeting the follicle directly, IPL helps reduce ingrown hairs. - **Precise Treatment** – Designed for small, delicate areas such as the upper lip and chin. - **Confidence Boost** – Clearer, smoother skin enhances your overall appearance. ## Treatment Process 1. **Consultation & Patch Test** – We assess your skin and hair type to confirm IPL is safe and suitable. 2. **Preparation** – The area should be shaved 24 hours before treatment. Plucking or waxing is avoided beforehand. 3. **Gel Application** – A cooling gel is applied to protect the skin and guide the light. 4. **IPL Pulses** – The handheld device delivers controlled bursts of light to the lip and chin area. 5. **Aftercare** – Aloe vera or soothing gel may be applied to calm the skin. * * * ## What to Expect - **Number of Sessions** – A course of 6–8 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, is usually required. - **Sensation** – The treatment feels like a warm snap, similar to a rubber band against the skin. - **Recovery** – Some mild redness or swelling may occur but usually subsides within hours. - **Results** – Hair regrowth reduces gradually, leaving smoother and clearer skin. * * * ## Important Considerations - **Best Candidates** – Works best on fair to medium skin with darker hair. - **Less Effective For** – Blonde, red, white, or grey hair, which lack sufficient pigment. - **Not Always Suitable** – Darker skin tones may have an increased risk of pigmentation changes and may require alternative methods. - **Hormonal Hair Growth** – IPL can be less effective for hormonally influenced facial hair (e.g. PCOS), though regular sessions can still help. * * * ## Preparation & Aftercare **Before Treatment:** - Avoid sun exposure and tanning for several weeks. - Shave the area 24 hours before the session. - Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup or lotions. **After Treatment:** - Apply SPF 30+ daily to protect sensitive skin. - Avoid saunas, hot tubs, or strenuous exercise for 24–48 hours. - Skip exfoliating products for at least a week. - Use a gentle moisturiser, such as aloe vera, to soothe the skin. * * * ## Book Your Consultation Say goodbye to constant plucking and waxing.
