The light flash emitted by the applicator has light energy in the range of about 600-950 nm wavelength. This light is mainly absorbed by the melanin (pigment) in the hair, converted into heat and reaches the hair follicle via the hair. By choosing the right pulse duration and energy density, the hair follicle is heated to 70°C for at least one millisecond and is sclerosed. The hair detaches itself from the skin after about two weeks.

The studies documenting the safety and effectiveness of the laser device (Epilux) are conducted by leading medical experts before the system is introduced to the market. The results of these laser hair removal tests are then published in reputable medical journals. The Epilux system settings suggested for each permanent hair removal treatment are based on the recommendations of the medical professionals who conducted these studies.

Due to the lack of infrared in the beam spectrum, the IPL Epilux System (Ellipse^®) does not require additional cooling of the epidermis other than gel, whereas other IPL and laser systems, such as Palomar’s Vectus™ diode laser or Lumenis’ Lightscheer laser, protect the epidermis with either pre-cooled ultrasound gel or water cooling, which cools the quartz at the contact surface with the skin surface. The light beam from the Epilux system operates in the perfectly safe range of about 600-950 nm wavelength.

In preparation for permanent laser hair removal in Berlin, it is helpful if the patient no longer tans his or her skin additionally by using a solarium or extensive sunbathing about one month before the laser hair removal. The heat-conducting pigment melanin produced during the treatment is found in the hair as well as in the skin. The treatment will be more painful on sun-tanned skin than on pale skin. Before the treatment for permanent laser hair removal in Berlin, the patient should not use depilatory creams in the target area (the treatment area or the body region that is to be depilated), nor should the region itself be epilated. Without a hair root, the treatment success of IPL laser hair removal will fail to materialise, because only the melanin in the hair conducts the heat energy to the hair root or to the hair follicle.

After IPL laser hair removal, the skin should also not be exposed to direct sunlight for 3 weeks to avoid possible side effects. After a session, in rare cases, hypo- or hyperpigmentation may occur, i.e. an increased fading or darkening of the treated body regions. However, this rare effect subsides on its own after a few weeks.
