As for ALL home-use IPL or laser treatments, one treatment won’t last forever. Once your initial treatment regime is completed, you will need to keep treating the hairs every once in a while to avoid hair growth starting up again.
Hair grows in three distinct and consecutive phases, and not all hairs are in the same phase at any one time. Because the IPL treatment is only effective in one particular phase (the Anagen ‘growth phase’ – since you ask), you should follow your treatment regime until you see the desired results. By following the recommended regime, you’re likely to zap any hairs you missed in previous treatments. Simple science! After 12 weeks, you could see up to 93% hair reduction*.

We recommend a 12 week treatment programme to experience the full IPL hair removal benefits. But here is an overview of what you can typically expect:

SmoothSkin are the World’s #1 IPL hair removal brand for safe, fast and permanent hair reduction*. As for ALL home-use IPL or laser treatments, one treatment won’t last forever.
You’ll need to use your device once a week for 12 weeks. This is because hair grows in three distinct and consecutive phases, and not all hairs are in the same phase at any one time. Because the IPL treatment is only effective in one particular phase of the hair growth cycle (the Anagen ‘growth phase’ – since you ask), you should follow your treatment regime until you see the desired results. By following the recommended regime, you’re likely to zap any hairs you missed in previous treatments. Simple science! After 12 weeks, you could see up to 93% hair reduction**.
After the initial treatment regime, you will need to keep treating the hairs every once in a while to avoid hair regrowth. But the great thing is that SmoothSkin devices will prevent hair regrowth as long as you keep treating regularly, so as long as you keep up with your treatments you’ll never have to experience stubbly legs or underarms again.

Yes, we have performed almost 4,000 clinical treatments on hundreds of women with different skin tones to ensure our products are safe and effective in removing unwanted hair*. Users typically see noticeable hair reduction in just 4 weeks and clinical studies have proven long-term sustained hair reduction 1 year after the last SmoothSkin treatment.
**the total number of treatments performed in our SmoothSkin clinical trials
SmoothSkin devices use Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to break the hair cycle and prevent regrowth.
Light energy is transferred through the skin’s surface and absorbed by melanin present in the hair shaft. That light energy is converted to heat energy (below the surface of the skin), which stops the hairs from growing back. Treated hairs naturally fall out over the course of a few days to 1-2 weeks.
Once you’ve completed the initial treatment period you will need to keep up with regular top-ups to prevent hair re-growth. But the great thing is that SmoothSkin devices will prevent hair regrowth as long as you keep treating regularly, so as long as you keep up with your treatments you’ll never have to experience stubbly legs or underarms again. Hoorah!
