WHAT IS IPL HAIR REMOVAL?
Unwelcome hair growth is a source of embarrassment for both men and women. Shaving and depilatory creams might seem like an easy fix, but they just get rid of the hair at the surface; not to mention the risk of cuts and ingrown hairs. While waxing may deliver longer-lasting results, it’s painful, time-consuming, and can cause an adverse reaction with your skin.
​
Venus Versa™ is transforming hair removal by using Intense Pulsed Light with SmartPulse™ technology to safely reduce unwanted hair growth on the face and body with virtually no pain and no downtime.
HOW DOES IPL HAIR REMOVAL WORK?
Hair grows in stages and it’s only during its growth cycle, when the hair is still in its follicle, that the removal process is most effective. The Venus Versa™ hair removal treatment delivers heat (via Intense Pulsed Light) with innovative SmartPulse™ technology to the deeper layers of the skin to target the pigment and destroy the hair follicle. This gets rid of the existing hair but also helps to inhibit further hair growth in the area. At the same time, SmartPulse™ ensures safe and consistent heat distribution, while an advanced real-time cooling system keeps skin protected.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
Most patients receive 6-10 treatments performed 6 weeks apart for the face and 4-8 weeks apart for the body. The duration of each individual treatment will depend on the area being treated. We will consult with you to determine the right treatment plan for you.
