What is the Espil Home IPL
The Espil Home IPL Hair Removal System is a small, portable IPL, with five different intensity level settings. The specifications for the device include wavelengths of light from 475 to 1200nm.
This system operates exactly the same as large machines used in salons, only at the fraction of the price, with equal or better results!
Treatment Plan with the Espil Home IPL
Hair removal treatments may be carried out approximately every 2 - 4 weeks, even every six weeks, if preferred, but no longer than that. Required sessions vary from person to person and from body area to body area and also the level on which treatment is being done. Treatments have to be regular and must not be missed, as it may lead to less effective results.
I am of the opinion that there is a major lie in the beauty industry, that only about 10 sessions are needed for permanent hair removal. From personal experience and over 6 years of research and dealing with permanent hair removal, I have yet to find a single person, who has only ever needed 10 sessions to achieve their desired results.
Hair has to be treated in the anagen (growing) stage and they grow individually and not at the same time. Nor do they grow at the same rate all over our bodies. Chest and back hair remain in the resting phase for about 3 months, whereas the upper lip and beard rests for 6 – 10 weeks, after which the the growing cycle starts again. The resting phase for leg hair is about 6 months. If legs’ hair remain in the resting phase for 6 months, it means that certain portions are not effectively treated throughout the 6 sessions, if one session per month is performed. Those same portions will only be effectively treated again, every 7 to 8 months. That is a total of 13 to 14 sessions already! Because we do not know which individual hairs are in the growing stage, we treat the entire area, in order to treat the hairs that are.
So it is clear that more than 10 sessions are required.
The 10-session statement is perhaps used, in order to get prospective clients to start treatment. No one will even consider permanent hair removal if they were informed that 20 or 30 sessions are required!
Thankfully with the Espil, that many sessions are achievable at a very affordable rate!
