Can IPL laser hair removal remove hair permanently?

Although IPL laser hair removal is effective, studies have shown that hair isn’t permanently eliminated. IPL can only treat hair while it is in the ‘anagen’ active phase of growth when the hair follicle is working to produce hair fibre. So you’ll need to have more than one treatment of IPL to get rid of the unwanted hair.

It can take time to see the effects, and your hair may seem to regrow after your treatment. That’s because, as the epidermis is replaced over several weeks, it gradually pushes the dead hairs to the surface. These can easily be removed at home.
