Suitable skin types

The Intense Pulsed Light Hair Remover is suitable for fair coloured skin through to olive skin types. For effective treatment the hair needs to be darker than the surrounding skin; the best results are usually achieved on pale skin with dark hair.

Also, we usually find that different power levels are required on different body areas, so you should test each area to establish the appropriate maximum power level for you – it's easy to do as our step-by-step DVD shows you exactly how.
