Frequently Asked Questions

Many studies around the world have proven that IPL technology is safe and effective for hair removal. For this reason, this method of hair removal, which can be done at home, has become extremely popular. The Hilda IPL photoepilator is CE and RoHS certified by the European Union, confirming the product’s quality and safety. In short, IPL hair removal is a very safe, easy, and effective method when used according to the instructions.

One of the biggest advantages of IPL hair removal is that it's painless, easy to use and work fast.

The intense pulsed light device works best for removing black, dark brown, medium or light brown hair. Intense pulsed light technology cannot affect light, red or gray hair. However, if you have lighter hair with brown or black roots, the procedure should work fine. Hairs of lighter shades with darker roots may take longer to remove.

Also, hair removal procedures are not effective for people with very dark skin.

Hilda IPL photo-epilator is extremely effective - the first results are noticeable after just 2-4 procedures.

The full cycle of procedures is 8 weeks.
Week 1-2: 2 treatments per week.
Week 3-4: 1 treatment per week.
Week 5-8: 1 treatment every 2 weeks.
