So you’ve been to your first IPL Hair Removal treatment in Singapore and you can’t wait to enjoy smoother, hair-free skin? Maybe you feel cooler, cleaner, and fresher without unwanted hair. Welcome to the club!
But hold your horses. First of all, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Singapore treatment requires consistency to yield results. At Japan IPL Express, we usually recommend visiting once every 4 weeks for an estimated 5 to 8 sessions, to see lasting results.
Signs that IPL Hair Removal Is Working
You’ll know the treatment is working when your hair grows out slower and finer. This usually happens after the fourth session. Others have also noticed hair shedding more easily and falling out more frequently than before after IPL treatment and shaving becomes easier.
Just because hair removal is something we covet doesn’t mean it has to be inconvenient – with IPL Hair Removal, you can enjoy it hassle-free. IPL Hair Removal can help prevent ingrown hair too, since it destroys the hair follicle.
How does IPL Hair Removal work?

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) emits pulses of light targeted to destroy unwanted hair follicle cells. Over multiple consistent sessions, these follicles are destroyed permanently, which reduces hair regrowth.
However, dormant or new follicles stand to rise and grow again, often because of hormonal changes. This is why even after completing your IPL treatment, you may still see some new strands of hand pop out naturally.
Even after pruning the garden, a little maintenance can go a long way to keep the unwanted hair at bay. For a smooth, hair-free body, we encourage our customers to come back for maintenance sessions once in a while.
Why hormones and genes may affect IPL hair removal results
Not everyone responds to IPL Hair Removal in exactly the same way. Two main factors influence your results:
- Hormones: If your hormone levels are high, you may need more sessions than average. For example, pregnancy and breastfeeding can affect hair growth, so it’s best to pause your treatments during this time and resume later.
- Genes: Your natural hair colour, texture, and thickness matter. IPL works best on darker, thicker hair because it absorbs light more effectively.
