How does Ulike IPL work?

Published at: 2025-09-19

How IPL Works

Ulike IPL works by targeting the melanin (pigment) in your hair. The IPL light is absorbed by the hair and converted into heat, which disables the hair follicle, leading to long-term hair reduction.
For IPL to be both effective and safe, there needs to be a clear contrast between your skin tone and hair color.
  • Best Results: Achieved with lighter skin tones and darker hair colors.
  • Less Effective: May not be suitable for very light blonde, red, gray, or white hair, as these lack sufficient melanin.
  • Safety Risk: Deeper skin tones may have a higher risk of irritation due to higher melanin content in the skin.
