Yes — it is safe for facial use below the cheekbones, including the upper lip and chin.

IPL works best on lighter skin tones (such as white, beige, light brown, and medium brown) combined with darker hair colors (light brown to black). It is not recommended for very dark skin tones or for very light, red, or grey hair, as the light energy cannot effectively target the hair pigment in those cases and may increase the risk of skin irritation or burns.

You should shave the treatment area before each IPL session. This allows the light to target the hair follicle directly beneath the skin for maximum effectiveness. Do not wax, pluck, or epilate, as removing the root prevents the IPL from working properly and can irritate the skin.

During the initial treatment phase (first 8 weeks), use the IPL device 1–2 times per week. After completing this phase, continue with maintenance sessions once or twice per month to maintain smooth, hair-free results.

Small areas (like the upper lip) take 1–2 minutes.
Large areas (like legs) take 10–15 minutes.

Yes, IPL can be used on the face (below the cheekbones), underarms, bikini line, and other sensitive areas. Just use the lower intensity settings for delicate skin and use the glasses at all times while using the device.

Most people describe IPL as painless or feeling like a warm sensation on the skin. Thanks to built-in cooling technology, discomfort is minimal compared to waxing or salon lasers.

Yes — it’s safe to share the device, but each user should clean the window between uses for hygiene.

Mild redness or warmth in the treated area is normal and usually fades within a few hours. Avoid sun exposure before and after treatments to protect your skin.

No, IPL should not be used directly over tattoos, moles, or skin conditions (like eczema or psoriasis). Always treat around these areas to avoid irritation.

Yes, IPL devices are designed for safe use at home. When used according to the instructions, they provide effective results with minimal risk. Always do a patch test before your first session.

It is not recommended to use IPL during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, as safety has not been fully established for these conditions.

IPL significantly reduces hair growth long-term. Many users stay smooth with just occasional touch-ups. While results vary, most people enjoy months of hair-free skin after completing a full treatment cycle.
