Enhance your Natural Beauty

The RECORD-618 is a cosmetic apparatus used for hair removal. The undesired hair is removed by coagulation of the hair follicle. High intensity light passes from the light source into the follicle and destroys it.
 

I.P.L. Hair Removal

Advantages

• Treatments are virtually painless and comfortable.
  No risk of burning.

• Treatments are 100 % non-invasive.

• Treatments at relatively low temperatures, allowing the light to penetrate deep into the skin without causing damage to the skin. The deeper the light is able to penetrate, the more effective the treatment.

• Record 618 allows for a much larger treatment area, shortening the duration of each individual treatment.

• No downtime is needed after the treatment. You are free to go outside and carry on with your regular day.
  (Tanning after treatment is discouraged.)

Can I use IPL anywhere on my body?

IPL can treat any part of the external body except for the eye area.

Can darker skin be treated?

Darker skin colour means that more melanin pigment is concentrated in the superficial layers of the skin. Melanin absorbs a lot of the thermal heat energy of the lasers and IPL light emissions making this an undesirable candidate for IPL treatments. People with a tan or darker skin pigment cannot be treated at full capacity therefore reducing the effectiveness of the treatment and increasing the risks of a negative reaction (blistering, pigmentation, etc.) Darker skin can be treated with the right machine but the results may take longer to achieve.

How many treatments are required for a successful IPL treatment?

For hair reduction you will need between 6 and 10 treatments, 4 to 6 weeks apart on each area depending on your skin and hair type. Some people require a maintenance treatment once a year or so.

Are there any side effects when using IPL?

It is normal to experience some redness of the skin and some very mild swelling which can last from an hour to 24 hours. The appearance of the treated area immediately after a session does vary from one person to another.

Do I need to do anything before my IPL treatments?

Stay out of the sun for one month before your treatments start and use a 30+ sun protection when you are exposed.
Do not use fake-tan or a tanning bed for at least a month. The procedure may have to be postponed if you have a tan, we cannot treat people who have tanned skin because of the increased risk of pigmentation change.
 

What do I need to do after my IPL treatments?

You will need to avoid direct sunlight for 4 weeks after the treatment and use a high quality sunscreen. The occurrence of redness in the area being treated is very common and will only last a couple of days. Whilst the redness is present you must avoid swimming, hot baths, scented lotions, soaps, exfoliants, shaving or activities that cause excessive perspiration.

What will happen after my hair reduction IPL treatment?

In the week to 2 weeks following your treatment your hair will fall out of the treated area. About 20 - 30% of your hairs are destroyed with each treatment session and the rest will grow back slowly. With each session your hair will become finer and less dense.
