Ellipse Intense Pulsed Light - Permanent Hair Reduction
ELLIPSE INTENSE PULSED LIGHT Permanent Hair Reduction
Get rid of unwanted hair quickly and safely using the Ellipse system – which uses safe, visible light to remove unwanted hair from all body sites in minutes.
How does the Ellipse treatment work?
Intense Pulsed Light uses visible light from a flash lamp which is guided via a glass prism to the hairy area. Hair contains pigment (melanin) that absorbs the light and converts it into heat. This heat is led through the hair into the follicle, which is then destroyed and rendered unable to produce a new hair. Usually a minimum of 6 treatments are needed (but may be more on stubborn areas) to gain a highly satisfactory result and the intervals between treatments are typically 4-6 weeks.
It is important not to remove the hair by elecrolysis or waxing for 4 weeks prior to treatment to ensure that as many hair follicles as possible contain a hair and thus can be destroyed by the light. Since tanning takes place by accumulation of pigment (melanin) in the skin it is also important to avoid tanning before and during the treatment sessions.
