What are the side effects of IPL hair removal?

IPL hair removal may cause mild side effects such as localized redness, swelling, and pain; however, these are generally considered normal and typically resolve spontaneously after a short period. IPL hair removal utilizes intense pulsed light (IPL) technology to directly target the skin, rendering the hair follicles beneath the skin inactive and thereby permanently inhibiting hair growth—effectively achieving long-term hair removal.
