FAQ

The most popular ADLight™ Hair Removal services include underarm hair removal, Brazilian hair removal, and leg hair removal for smooth, long-lasting results.

For ADLight™ Skin Solution, many clients request underarm whitening to brighten darkened skin, as well as treatments to reduce acne, pigmentation, and enhance overall facial brightness.

Our ADLight™ Skin Solution is a versatile IPL treatment for skin that effectively targets both acne, uneven skin tone and pigmentation. 

For acne, ADLight™ works with a special control gel to kill bacteria and regulate oil production, while the cooling system soothes the inflammation.

To lighten pigmentation and even out skin tone, ADLight™ helps with skin whitening as it boosts microcirculation, precisely targets melanin pigments on your skin, breaking them down to reveal a clearer, brighter complexion.

TriLight Technology helps reduce acne and scarring, tighten and strengthen the skin’s structure, and even out skin tone while brightening your complexion.

It effectively targets fine lines, nasolabial folds, crow’s feet, pigmentation, sagging skin, and loss of volume, promoting smoother, healthier, and more youthful-looking skin.

Best of all, TriLight Technology is non-invasive with zero downtime, making it a convenient and effective solution for all skin types.

ADLight™ is a 1-light based technology (i.e. IPL) whereas TriLight Therapy combines 3 different technologies into one treatment (i.e. Pulsed Light, Radio Frequency & TheraRed™).

TriLight Technology is curated for customers who are looking for a more comprehensive facial skin treatment. Hence, it is administered on Full Face only.

As both machines work on light-based technology, there may be too much residual heat in the skin.

Hence, we do not recommend doing full face ADLight™ Hair Removal and TriLight Therapy at the same time.  

You can choose to get either:

1. Full Face ADLight™ Hair Removal and TriLight Therapy done on a separate session with 2 weeks interval
2. ADLight ™ Hair Removal for upper/lower lip and TriLight Therapy on the same session
3. Full Face ADLight™ Hair Removal + Skin Solution in the same session.  

There is no downtime for this treatment and you may return to your daily activities after!

ADLight™ is capable of balancing power and cooling to keep customers feeling comfortable during their treatment session.

Our ADLight™ machines have an in-built cooling tip, which means they automatically provide a cooling effect during treatment. So only on the rare occasions when customers feel discomfort would our therapists apply cooling gel on the skin. Should this be your personal preference or you have any uncertainties, please don’t hesitate to ask.

There are no major side effects. However if you have relatively dry skin, we’d recommend that you moisturise before your treatments to prevent redness or itchiness. Better yet, make it a good habit to moisturise every day!

If you have sensitive skin, you might wonder if ADLight™ is right for you. While most of our clients with sensitive skin can safely enjoy our treatments, but the best way to know for sure is to walk in and consult with our well-trained therapists. They will carefully examine your skin and provide a personalised recommendation before.

Plus, first-time visitors can try ADLight™ with 20 Free Shots™, making it easy to experience the treatment safely and comfortably.

Yes you may. ADLight™ has the ability to match to your skin tone accordingly to ensure maximum comfort during your treatment session.

This varies! While it is alright for some medical conditions to continue with the treatment, there are also certain medical conditions that will not be allowed.

Generally, your Hair Removal treatment area requires an estimation of 5-8 sessions, with frequency of once every 4 weeks.

As results are subjective, we tend to look at Progressive Results. By Progressive Results, we refer to hair growing slower, thinner and finer over consistent sessions. This may differ between individuals as everyone’s hair/skin condition and hormones vary. After which, you may go through touch-up/maintenance once every 5 weeks… 6 weeks and eventually the frequency of touch-up visits will decrease until you won’t need to come in at all.

For one to also see results, we strongly recommend consistency in between sessions, i.e. once every 4 weeks. This allows ADLight™ treatment to effectively destroy the hair follicle.

*Sessions & results may vary across individuals due to hair condition and hormones.

We can’t beat science. Hair growth stage is every 26-28 days – god knows why -, and during this period, the hair goes through 3 different stages. When the hair is at its mature stage, i.e. Anagen stage, this is the best and most effective time to go through the treatment. And when this is repeated consistently, the hair cells stop whatever they are doing to grow that hair. That’s when you will see progressive results of hair growing slower, thinner, finer and eventually stop growing.

If you were to come once every few months, it is definitely not going to be effective. It’s the same as if you were to hit the gym consistently, you may see results. If you don’t, you don’t.

Avoid plucking or epilating unwanted hair the moment you start the treatment! The purpose of IPL is to destroy hair follicles when it’s at the anagen stage. By plucking or epilating, it hinders hair growth which defeats the purpose and affects the effectiveness of the treatment.

Shaving is permitted, but our professional therapists at Japan IPL Express can do it for you for free, ensuring a clean shave without the risk of ingrown hairs. 

Since there’s no shaving fee or shaver charges, why not?
