HOW IT WORKS
EveryoneÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂs hair grows differently, depending on age, weight, metabolism, hormones, ethnicity, medications and other factors. However, all hair goes through three distinct phases:
Anagen
or active growth phase when hair grows actively.
Catagen
or degradation phase - when hair stops growing but is not yet shed.
Telogen
or resting phase - when hair falls out and a new hair begins to form.
IPL treatment is effective when the hair is in the active growth phase. And because at any one time there is only a percentage of hairs in this phase (the actual percentage varies from one body area to another) some follicles will be destroyed, others may be reduced to producing only vellus hairs (light fine hairs) and some will be disabled - helping prevent hair regrowth.
To achieve this, the Intense Pulsed Light Hair Remover sends pulses of intense light directly to the hair follicle, with enough energy to either destroy or disable the root but without affecting the surrounding area. And as IPL covers a much larger area than the relatively small treatment spots that lasers manage, you see and feel the results much more quickly. Which, of course, is just what you want ,ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ all-over soft, silky smooth skin
REINFORCED SECURITY SYSTEM
The pulsed light energy emitted by the device destroys hair follicles for permanent hair removal. The Rio IPL-8000 also has a reinforced security system:
- 8 levels of security for your peace of mind.
- A 30,000 flash bulb for pulsed light epilation of the entire body (6 sessions including underarms + bikini + full leg).
- Replacement bulbs available
- Intensity regulator (5 levels)
- Instruction DVD included.
- Security system with key and access code.
- UV filter on the treatment area
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. NOTÂ SUITABLEÂ FORÂ AFRO/CARIBBEAN SKIN.
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.
