Is It Safe to Do IPL Hair Removal at Home? Frequently Asked Questions

Laser hair removal is one of the most popular outpatient cosmetic treatments, ideal for permanently removing excess hairs by killing the follicle with a focused burst of energy. Clients have typically had this treatment done at a medspa or a dermatologist's office in the past. Today, however, it's possible to do laser hair removal at home thanks to an innovative new product from RoseSkinCo. The IPL Hair Removal Handset is the latest addition to our bold line of at-home beauty treatments.

FAQ About Hair Removal at Home

What Is the IPL Laser Hair Removal Handset?

The IPL Hair Removal Handset is a handset packing powerful light energy that penetrates to the root of hairs and delivers long-lasting visible results in only weeks. All it takes is a series of short treatments at home. The IPL works on any body part, including the face and bikini area. The technology used is the same used by dermatologists to deliver safe and sustainable results.
This device is a one-piece handset that comes with a standard cord and an instruction manual. With no small, removable parts, you won't have to worry about replacements and refills for the lifespan of the device.

How Does the Device Work?

The IPL Hair Removal Handset emits a powerful concentration of light from a laser that's calibrated to affect the hair without damaging the skin or causing any redness or post-treatment soreness. The light energy is absorbed by the melanin in the hair, destroying the hair as it turns to heat. This causes damage to the hair's follicle, which makes it unable to grow more hair quickly. This leads to significantly slower hair growth in the treated areas.

There are two modes to use with this handset. Stamp mode delivers a focused blast of energy to targeted areas like the bikini line, lip, and underarms. Glide mode delivers a smoother, constant pulse of energy over large areas like the legs and arms.

Treatments should be done every week for up to thirty minutes, depending on the area being covered and the level of hair growth. You will see visible results in only three weeks, with full results visible after twelve treatments. After treatment is completed, monitor the area for slow hair regrowth and do touch-ups as needed.

How Does the Treatment Feel?

Unlike many hair removal treatments, which can cause peeling and redness after treatment, this handset uses a gentle pulse of energy with no side effects or pain afterwards. Our users describe glide mode as a smooth, constant warmness as it works on the larger areas, while stamp mode is a more intense but still comfortable hot feeling on the skin. You'll be free to return to normal activities immediately after treatment with no signs of redness or soreness on the skin after performing hair removal at home.

Is Using Intense Pulsed Light Safe?

The handset has been tested according to the strictest standards, and the device and energy used are used in hundreds of clinics nationwide. The  IPL energy is calibrated to pose no risk to the skin, even on the highest setting, and the lack of any small or breakable parts makes it highly durable. The device is also FCC, CE, and RoHS certified for safety, durability, and environmental friendliness.

How Long Will the Results Last?

IPL hair removal at home works on the same principles as in-office hair removal, but the laser isn't as powerful for safety reasons. While this means that not all hairs will be gone permanently, you'll see regrowth rates go from days to months, and many hairs won't ever return. With occasional touch-ups, the targeted areas will stay hair-free for years.

Best of all, you can do a treatment on your schedule, without any need to book an appointment or spend time going to and from a beauty center.

How Long Will the Device Last?

The IPL Hair Removal Handset is built to last, and the one-piece construction means one part of your device won't run out before the rest. The powerful laser core has a lifetime capacity of 300,000 flashes, which should last over ten years with regular use. This is a corded device, so you don't have to worry about charging it or replacing the battery.

We stand by our product's construction, so this device comes with a free one-year warranty guaranteeing a replacement for any model with defects.
