Welcome to the IPL Hair Removal Website

IPL MachineMost adult humans develop body hair and some are hairier than others. There are sometimes medical conditions for this but other times it is just genetic or the way we are.

History is full of different methods of removing body hair such as plucking, waxing, shaving and so forth.

All of these techniques remove the actual hair but do not have any effect on the hair follicle and therefore do not have any influence on further hair growth. In fact, some seem to stimulate the follicles so subsequent hair grows thicker, stronger and faster.

With modern technologies, it is now possible to treat many people's hair using IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). This not only treats the hair itself but also treats the follicle, either destroying it or reducing its effectiveness, giving permanent hair reduction.

As with all technologies and/or medical procedures, although the result can be excellent, there are also warnings and certain people whom it is less effective in.

The purpose of this website is to explain what IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is, how is works on a hair, who is suitable and who is not, what the benefits and risk are, what should be avoided, treatment schedules and patch testing.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), as well as laser, are potentially harmful if used in the wrong hands, or incorrectly. As such, facilities which use IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) or laser in the UK need to be registered by the Health Care Commission.

At Absolute Aesthetics, we have a very strong commitment that all of our treatments and therapies should be effective and the personnel performing them should be fully trained and qualified. In this way, we aim to get the best results for our clients.

It is this reason that our motto at Absolute Aesthetics is:-

"Where Beauty Makes Medicine" - our Registered Trademark

Laser Hair Removal

Absolute Aesthetics has recently invested in a new system for laser hair removal treatment.

Imagine never having to shave, pluck or wax ever again!

The Soprano System is a unique, virtually pain free hair removal treatment, which works on all skin types, including tanned skin and all hair pigmentation. It works by safely and gently heating the dermis (skin) to a temperature that damages the hair follicle, preventing re-growth. It is fast, reliable and suitable for all skin types.
