Ashbrooke Therapies offer a long term solution to that unwanted hair problem; be it facial, legs or other more discreet regions of the body.
IPL is now a well established treatment alternative to electrolysis, shaving, waxing and depilatory creams. For skin and hair types where Laser light treatment is effective, it is the safest and quickest method for hair reduction.
A consultation must be carried out in clinic prior to all treatment, this is to check your medical history and to confirm suitability. Before treatment you will be asked to sign a consent form and undergo a patch test.
We request you shave the area being treated 1 day before your Laser Hair Removal appointment. Long hair is not required (3mm growth maximum, excluding female facial area). If you recently have had wax or Epilady treatment, we recommend waiting 3 weeks for re-growth and then shave the area 1 day before your IPL treatment. Full sun exposure is to be avoided 2 weeks before & 2 weeks after your laser treatment. Fake tan applications are to be avoided 1 week before your laser treatment.
*IPL works on targeting the brown colour pigment (melanin) at the hair root and thus, it is not effective on Red, Blonde or Gray hair.
