Preperation & Post Care
Before your IPL treatment
- Stay out of the sun or solariums for at least two weeks before your treatment. Sun exposure can lead to damaging the skin and increase the risk of pigmentation and burns
- Self tan or spray tan cannot be used for two weeks before your treatment. the dark pigment attracts the light and can result in pigmentation and discolouration of the treated area
- Please ensure the area to be treated is shaved before attending your appointment
- Do not wax of pluck for 4-6 weeks before and during the course of your treatment. removing hair from the root means there is no hair for the IPL to target, shaving ot ok between treatments
After you IPL Treatment
- Apply our BB repair gel to the treated area for the next 48 hours to help soothe the skin
- Avoid vigorous excercise and sweating for 24 hours
- After 7 days, be sure to exfoliate the treated area 2-3 times per week

Understanding hair removal techniques
Unmasking IPL therapy: The modern hair removal sensation
Hair removal has transformed over time, and one of the game-changers is Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy.
At the heart of this innovation is a high-intensity light source used to combat various skin issues, including unsolicited hair. Here’s how it works: IPL works by using light energy to target your skin’s pigment. The hair pigment absorbs this energy, heats up, and destroys those bothersome hair-producing cells.
IPL hair removal has also gotten popular because it works for different hair and skin types. This treatment doesn’t discriminate; whether you have black, brown, blonde, or red hair, or light or dark skin, there’s an IPL setting that can work wonders for removing unwanted hair.
You can confidently say goodbye to those razor nicks and hot wax mishaps. Hello, smoothness!
IPL therapy vs laser hair removal showdown
In the battle between IPL therapy and the more commonly known laser hair removal, which one takes the trophy?
On the one hand, laser hair removal, with its single band of light, targets hair follicles more precisely, leading to more effective results. However, it can be expensive, require multiple sessions, and potentially cause some skin irritation. On the other hand, IPL uses a broad bandwidth of light wavelengths, making it a more convenient choice for larger areas.
IPL and laser hair removal are the superstars of the hair removal industry. Laser hair removal edges IPL out in terms of effectiveness and specificity, but IPL fights back with convenience and speed for larger skin areas. It’s a tight match, and your skin type, preferences, and budget will help determine your perfect match!
Your guide to IPL treatment preparation
Ensuring a safe and fabulous IPL treatment
We can’t emphasise enough how crucial safety is when preparing for IPL treatment. So, how do we ensure you enjoy a safe and fabulous experience?
- Choose an experienced IPL therapist, like Brazilian Butterfly’s team! If you want effective and efficient hair removal, then a professional environment will provide a comfortable and relaxing experience, allowing you to fully enjoy the process.
- Adhere to all safety procedures. Yes, that includes rocking those sexy safety goggles to protect your eyes! Abide by the safety protocols, sterilisation procedures, and pain management guidelines – it’s better to be over-careful than not!
- Prep your skin for the treatment. That means saying goodbye to sun exposure, tanning beds, and certain skincare products for a while. You’ll also want to avoid skincare products with retinoids, glycolic acid, or salicylic acid a week before the treatment.
A safe IPL treatment is your ticket to flawless, hair-free skin and a more confident you. Got any questions? Chat with your BB therapist – they’re there to help.
Post-IPL treatment recovery rundown
So, you’ve just come out of your first IPL hair removal session. What’s next for you? Post-care, of course! Here are some hot tips for cool post-treatment recovery and care:
- Ice the area. Think of it as a mini-spa moment post-treatment.
- Play it safe under the sun. Slap on that SPF 30 sunscreen after your treatment.
- Stay out of the heat. Dial down the temperature and keep hot showers, saunas, and steam rooms at bay for forty-eight hours post-treatment.
- Give your skin some downtime. Your skin needs a vacation too, so avoid harsh products for at least one week. Think gentle cleansers and moisturisers.
- Hands off. Let your skin heal naturally – no picking at scabs or blisters, please!
- Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Quench your skin’s thirst from within by drinking water and using a high-quality moisturiser.
- Schedule your next treatment! IPL therapy works best through multiple sessions, so stay on track with your hair removal journey by scheduling your treatments at the recommended intervals.
Remember, post-IPL care is just as crucial as the treatment itself. And if you have any concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to your therapist!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
IPL therapy works its magic by harnessing the brilliance of concentrated light beams.
Here’s the scoop on how it works: The laser used in hair removal targets the pigment called melanin that gives hair its colour. The laser weakens the hair follicles, preventing them from producing more hair in the future. This way, it skilfully disrupts the hair growth process and leaves you with smooth, hair-free skin that lasts.
However, laser hair removal comes with potential risks, such as temporary skin irritation, redness, or swelling.
This is why IPL hair removal treatments have gained more traction recently. Not only is IPL therapy more versatile, but it can also treat a wider range of skin and hair types. It’s also generally more affordable and less painful than laser treatments.
When it comes to laser hair removal treatments, patience is key. The time it takes for laser hair removal treatments can vary, with each session ranging from 90–120 minutes, depending on the area. These sessions are typically spread out a few weeks apart to catch those hair growth cycles just right.
Getting rid of hair with laser treatments can take six to twelve sessions spread over a few months to a whole year, depending on what you’re aiming for.
Similarly, IPL hair removal treatments can take different lengths of time for each person. An IPL treatment typically lasts about 30–40 minutes, depending on how big the area is, and will also need multiple sessions to get the best results. An IPL therapy course typically lasts for 8–10 sessions, with each session 4–6 weeks apart.
If you’re looking for a more convenient hair removal treatment, then IPL is it. With this game-changing treatment, you’ll spend less time under the light and more time sashaying around with newfound swagger. Get ready to wave goodbye to unwanted hair and say hello to endless hours of pure enjoyment! It’s time to shine bright and unleash that unstoppable, hair-free version of yourself.
Say goodbye to expensive hair removal woes! Laser hair removal can leave your wallet feeling a bit wounded, but fear not, because IPL is here to save the day (and your budget)! While the price range for laser treatments can vary wildly, IPL hair removal comes at a wallet-friendly cost.
