This is how hair removal works with the Ulike IPL device
IPL is an abbreviation and stands for “Intense Pulsed Light”. You have to imagine the technique in action like this: You place the Ulike device vertically on the areas of skin you want to treat. This could be, for example, your legs, your arms, your armpits, your bikini area or even unwanted hair on your face. Once you have positioned the device, switch it on and you can start.
The IPL device now sends out light pulses that look like small flashes of light. These penetrate the surface of the skin and are absorbed by melanin (the pigment in the hair) in the hair roots. The absorbed energy is in turn converted into heat, which heats and destroys the hair roots. After several uses, the hair grows back slower, finer or not at all.
At the“Air 3” by Ulike* You have the option to adjust the light intensity to adapt hair removal to different body areas and skin sensitivities.
You can also decide whether you want to generate flashes manually by repeatedly pressing the button. Or alternatively use auto glide mode. In this mode, the light flashes automatically, which is particularly useful for large areas on the arms or legs.
This is what lies behind the sapphire ice cooling technologyby Ulike
Anyone who has ever tried an IPL device knows that the treatment doesn't hurt, but it can tingle slightly. With the“Air 3” by Ulike* you feel almost nothing. The product not only feels comfortable and gentle on the skin, but also features patented sapphire ice cooling technology.
What is behind this technology? As soon as the Ulike hair removal device is switched on, the cooling system activates. Within 5 seconds the sapphire light window becomes dull. Even after 30 minutes of use, the sapphire crystal maintains a cool contact temperature of 18° C. This protects your skin from burns and irritation.
By the way: The skin is not damaged by the treatment because all UV lights are filtered out of the IPL light spectrum - including all wavelengths under 1,200 nanometers.
How quickly do I see results when I use Ulike devices?
To achieve best results, Ulike recommends shaving the relevant areas of skin beforehand and using the device three times a week for the first month. After that, you can use it as a touch-up every two weeks or once a month if necessary to maintain the results. If you have strong hair growth or particularly thick hair, you can also increase the application.
If you stick to this “schedule,” Ulike promises visible results in just three weeks. After four weeks, the hair is said to have reduced by 90% - although the results can of course vary from person to person.
Important notes at the end:Always follow the manufacturer's instructions to avoid injury or skin damage. An IPL device should not be used over scars and tattoos. It is also not recommended to use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding in order to avoid any possible risks. If you are unsure or have any questions, please speak to a doctor beforehand.
IPL is not equally suitable for all skin types as the technology is based on the absorption of light by the melanin in the skin and hair. The effectiveness therefore depends heavily on the skin color and hair color. IPL works best on people with a high contrast between light skin and dark hair. It's best to look at theseCompatibility table on the Ulike websitebefore you order the device.
