Advanced IPL Hair Reduction
Our SkinBase IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) hair reduction system is a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution to unwanted hair. Using advanced light technology, it targets the hair follicle beneath the skin’s surface, gradually reducing hair growth with each treatment. The process is gentle on the skin, suitable for most areas of the body, and delivers smoother, hair-free skin without the irritation of shaving or waxing. Over a series of sessions, you can enjoy permanent hair reduction and silky-soft results that last.
Duration
For SkinBase IPL hair reduction, treatment duration depends on the area being treated but for example:
• Upper lip or chin: 5–10 minutes
• Underarms: 10–15 minutes
• Bikini line: 15–20 minutes
• Legs (half leg): 20–30 minutes
• Full legs: 40–60 minutes
• Full body: 90–120 minutes
Each session is quick, and most clients notice significant hair reduction after 6–8 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

Before Your Appointment
We’ll carry out a consultation and patch test to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for your skin type and hair colour. We’ll also give you pre-treatment advice, such as avoiding tanning or strong sun exposure in the weeks beforehand.
During Your Treatment
You’ll feel completely at ease as we use our advanced SkinBase IPL machine, fitted with a soothing cryo cooling head to minimise any warmth or tingling sensations. Each pulse of light targets the hair follicle beneath the skin, without damaging the surrounding area.
After Your Treatment
There’s little to no downtime. You may experience slight warmth or redness that settles quickly. Over the next 1–3 weeks, treated hairs will shed naturally, revealing smoother skin. A course of 6–8 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, is usually recommended for best results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is IPL hair removal permanent?
A: IPL offers long-term hair reduction. Many clients enjoy smooth skin for months or even years, with occasional top-up sessions.
Q: Does IPL hurt?
A: Most clients describe it as a mild, warm elastic band flick against the skin. Our cryo cooling head keeps the treatment comfortable, even in sensitive areas.
Q: How many sessions will I need?
A: We usually recommend 6–8 sessions for optimal results, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the area and your hair growth cycle.
Q: Can I have IPL if I’ve been in the sun recently?
A: We advise avoiding treatment on recently tanned skin, as sun exposure can increase sensitivity. You’ll need to wait until any tan has faded.
Q: What areas can be treated?
A: Almost any area of the face or body can be treated, including legs, underarms, bikini line, arms, back, chest, and facial areas such as the upper lip and chin.
Q: Is there any downtime?
There’s minimal downtime—you can return to normal activities straight away, following aftercare advice.
