Intense pulsed light IPL hair removal has largely replaced lasers for hair removal because it is faster, more comfortable and able to treat darker skin types safely. There are a wide variety of intense pulsed light machines and the terminology referring to them can be confusing.

We use the Palomar Smooth IPL system because it will deliver power with comfort: for you this translates into hair removal that gives permanent results.

How does IPL hair removal work?

Intense pulsed light [IPL] hair removal uses light energy to heat up and destroy the hair bulb, this produces a permanent reduction in the quanity and quality of hair.

IPL hair treatment.

What areas can be treated with intense pulsed light [IPL]? All face and body areas can be safely treated except onto the eyelids.

Women commonly want: bikini or Brazilian as well as lip, chin and other facial hair, underarm and full leg or arm.

Men commonly want: back, chest, stomach, neck, ear hair and for sporting enthusiasts or body builders, sometimes full body hair.

IPL permanent hair removal.

Is intense pulsed light [IPL] really permanent? With the Palomar smooth IPL power levels are sufficient to achieve at the very least permanent reduction in unwanted hair. The response to intense pulsed light hair removal depends on several factors including your skin type and the colour and coarseness of the hair you want to get rid of.

It is best to come in for a free assessment then we will be able to advise if you are suitable for hair removal with intense pulsed light.

IPL hair removal cost.

The price for IPL hair removal is dependent on the area treated and the technology used. Some hair removal clinics have low end machines that only achieve hair stunting. The cheapest option may not be the best if it does not actually permanently reduce your unwanted hair.

IPL vs laser hair removal.

Most often people refer to IPL hair removal treatments as laser hair removal or IPL laser hair removal. Although IPL is a laser like technology it is not a true laser. In fact it is faster and more comfortable than older laser hair removal technology.

treatments are three times faster than laser hair removal and even waxing

suitable for large areas such as the legs or back

Hair removal for men is a relatively new phenomenon. Until recently men chose hair removal for sporting or occupational pursuit: cyclists and body builders for example were early adopters. However hair removal for men has become common place across all professions, age groups, size and ethnicity.

Laser hair removal for men has grown increasingly popular: men tend to have larger areas to remove and guys being practical and not partial to pain have found waxing and shaving tedious and unpleasant.

In fact in 2007 laser hair removal was the 4th most popular non surgical cosmetic procedure in America (figures for Australia are not available, but this is probably reflective of Australian trends which has seen exponential growth in men wanting permanent hair reduction.)

The most popular hair removal for men

1. Back hair
2. Chest and abdomen
3. Neck
4. Full arms
5. Full Legs
6. Male bikini

A Cosmetic Tattoo is the application of natural pigments into the dermal layer of the skin to create semi permanent makeup. Cosmetic tattooing is commonly referred to as permanent makeup, however the pigments fade over time (lasting 3-5 years) and reapplication is required to maintain the permanent makeup look.

Cosmetic tattooing is completely safe. Victoria our cosmetic tattooist uses only approved pigments, disposable single use application and follows strict health and safety regulations.

Cosmetic tattoos can be used for a variety of semi permanent cosmetic enhancements.

eyebrows

eye liner

lip liner

lip blend or lipstick colour

What is the difference between a cosmetic tattoo and traditional tattooing?

Besides the obvious that a cosmetic tattoo is a semi permanent enhancement of natural features rather than an artistic statement, the placement of pigment, the machine and type of pigment used are different.

Cosmetic tattooing involves using natural pigments, placed more superficially to create a softer less permanent enhancement.

Is a cosmetic tattoo painful?

Topical anaesthetic creams are used to make the procedure more comfortable. Because we have trained Medical and Nursing staff present at all times there is an option to have analgesic block for lip procedures. Victoria will discuss this with you at your free consultation.

How much downtime is there with a cosmetic tattoo?

There is slight reddness and swelling after the procedure, but this settles quickly. You can go back to normal activities immediedly although complete healing and settling takes one to four weeks. The final colour takes around 4 weeks to achieve and Victoria will see you for a check up 4 weeks post treatment. at that stage a touch up can be applied to refine the colour and shape if required.

As routinue part of professional permanent makeup application a touch up with refinement of colour and shape is required at one month: this has two advantages, it allows a time for the makeup to settle (there is always an initial fading) allowing you to adjust to the new colour and shape and means at the second visit any refinements can be applied. It is always best to tread lightly on the first application to avoid any unwanted surprises.

Though called permanent makeup the application is really a semi permanent enhancement lasting up to 5 years. Touch ups need to be applied after a period to maintain your colour and style definition permanently.
