Expert IPL Hair Removal in Milton Keynes
At Nue Clinic we use The Excelight IPL System by Lynton to achieve permanent hair reduction. The Excelight is a certified medical IPL device, delivering highly effective IPL treatments.
IPL, or Intense Pulsed Light, works by directing light energy into the melanocytes in the hair follicle. These are the cells that produce the colour. The light converts to heat and causes destruction of the follicle so it can no longer effectively produce hair.
80-90% reduction in hair growth is normally seen after 8 sessions. It is suitable for both men and women, on the face and body.
Whether it’s unwanted hair on the legs, underarms, bikini line, back, or facial areas such as the upper lip or chin, IPL treatments can effectively target and reduce hair growth.
The gold standard technology for pain-free hair removal treatments
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) hair removal is a popular method for long-term hair reduction. It uses broad-spectrum light to target the pigment in hair follicles, heating them and eventually destroying them. Here’s how IPL hair removal typically works:
Preparation: Before the IPL treatment, it’s important to shave the area being treated to ensure the light is absorbed by the hair follicles and not the hair above the skin’s surface. It’s also advisable to avoid sun exposure and self-tanning products prior to the treatment.
Consultation: IPL hair removal treatments begin with a consultation and test patch, which must be completed at least 72 hours prior to the full treatment. Skin type, hair colour, and medical history will be assessed to determine if you are a suitable candidate for the treatment. IPL is generally more effective on individuals with lighter skin tones and darker hair, as the contrast helps the light energy target the hair follicles more effectively.
Treatment: During the treatment, a handheld device emitting pulses of intense light is passed over the targeted area. The light is absorbed by the melanin pigment present in the hair follicles, which heats them up and damages the cells responsible for hair growth. The surrounding skin is usually cooled to minimize discomfort and protect it from the heat.
Sessions: IPL hair removal typically requires multiple treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart. This is because hair grows in cycles, and IPL Hair Removal is most effective during the active growth phase (anagen). Multiple sessions ensure that as many hair follicles as possible are treated during their growth phase, leading to better long-term results.
Aftercare: After each treatment session, it’s important to avoid sun exposure and use sun protection on the treated area. You may experience some temporary redness, mild swelling, or a sensation similar to a mild sunburn, but these effects usually subside within a few hours or days.
IPL hair removal is a safe treatment, however it may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with certain skin conditions, medical conditions, or who are pregnant
IPL Hair Removal is a safe long-term solution to unwanted excess hair, suitable for most skin types with minimal discomfort.

Benefits of IPL Hair Removal
IPL Hair Removal offers several benefits, including a long-lasting reduction in hair growth.
Any regrowth, however minimal, will be finer and less frequent, resulting in smoother skin for an extended period.
- Say goodbye to ingrown hairs as well. With reduced shaving and waxing, you’ll experience fewer instances of rashes, brittle stubble, and ingrown hairs, providing relief and comfort.
- By investing in laser hair removal, you can save money in the long run, considering that the average woman spends £6500 on razors in her life. It’s a worthwhile investment with lasting results.
- Additionally, laser hair removal contributes to improved skin tone and texture. Unlike repetitive shaving or waxing that can lead to skin pigmentation issues and uneven skin tone.
