Q: Would IPL treatment cause any hair loss? Is it effective in removing pigmentation?
A: IPL technology can remove hair, usually temporarily, at the wavelengths used for photorejuvenation. Men who get IPL treatments on their face report reduced beard growth at least for a short time. We have not seen any obvious permanent hair reduction with photorejuvenation treatments. IPL works well to reduce hyperpigmentation. |
