Sun exposure:
IPL hair removal targets the melanin in hair follicles and can cause skin discoloration or burns if performed on tanned or sun-exposed skin. Cooler months are generally associated with less sun exposure, reducing the risk of side effects.
Less risk of irritation:
During the warmer months, heat and sweat can increase the likelihood of skin irritation after IPL hair removal. In cooler weather, the skin may be less prone to irritation, allowing for a more comfortable treatment.
Multiple sessions:
IPL hair removal typically requires multiple sessions to achieve optimal results. Scheduling treatments during the cooler months allows for adequate time between sessions, and you can expect to have a significant reduction in hair growth by the time summer arrives.
Better results:
Hair growth is typically slower during the cooler months, allowing for more effective treatment. IPL hair removal works best on hair that is in its active growth phase, and because hair growth is slower in the winter, IPL can more effectively target hair follicles.
Convenience:
The cooler months can be a convenient time to schedule IPL hair removal sessions as there may be fewer outdoor activities and social engagements, allowing for more flexible scheduling.
