The Preparation Before IPL Hair Removal: Take A Skin Test

IPL ( Intense pulse light )device is becoming increasingly popular for hair removal. It offers an effortless and effective hair removal experience to achieve hair-free, smooth skin.     However, to enjoy all the benefits, you must perform some essential prerequisites before IPL hair removal. It's crucial to carry out a skin test prior to using an IPL hair removal device on your entire body. A skin test ensures that your body is ready to accept the IPL hair removal process and does not react adversely to it. In this article, we will guide you through the process of taking a skin test before IPL hair removal.

Steps to Perform a Skin Test Before IPL Hair Removal

Performing a skin test is a simple and easy process. Practicing this simple process helps you figure out your skin sensitivity and choose the right level of intensity setting. By following the steps below, you can easily carry out a patch test:

Initial Test

If you are going through the procedure of IPL for the first time or if your skin has been exposed to the sun recently, then you should perform the skin test on each part of your body where you wish to have the IPL treatment.

It will help you determine the correct light intensity setting. For example, if you want the IPL treatment on your arms and legs, you can perform the skin test on a skin patch on your hands and feet.

Remove Hair

Begin by removing hair from the area where you wish to perform the skin test. Shave and clean the skin thoroughly and make sure not to use any chemicals for hair removal. You should also refrain from using essential oils as they can interfere with the skin test results.

Test Procedure

Select Mode and Intensity:Choose mode setting on your IPL device and set the intensity level 1.       It's better to start the procedure with lower intensity by setting level 1.

Apply Light Flash:Adjust the light outlet of the device on the part of the skin where you wish to perform the patch test and apply one light flash.

Increase Intensity:If you don't feel any reaction against the light flash, then gradually increase the intensity to level 2. Perform another light flash on the next position on the skin.

Continue Testing:Follow this process and continue increasing the energy level step by step.       Perform a light flash test at each level.

Observe Reaction:Observe your skin reaction on each intensity level and determine the appropriate energy level. Start with a lower setting and raise it as high as your skin can tolerate without experiencing any adverse reaction.

Wait and Observe

After you are done with the tests, wait for at least two hours to observe your skin condition.       If there are no abnormalities, you are fine to continue using the device at the level you find suitable. However, if you experience redness, lower the intensity level. You can also use ice to relieve any discomfort as slight warmth and redness are normal.

Performing a successful skin test by following the aforementioned steps ensures that your skin is ready for the IPL treatment. It prevents any major skin reaction against the treatment and ensures that the intensity levels are under safe parameters when applied to the major portion of the skin.

Nurture Your Sensitive Skin with Care

If you have sensitive skin, its vital to nurture it to make it ready for the IPL hair removal treatment. You can follow the tips mentioned below to nurture your sensitive skin with care.

①Moisturize Regularly: Use a good moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated as it prevents skin dryness.

②Sun Protection: To protect your skin from UV rays, it's good to apply sunscreen that prevents skin sensitivity.

③Avoid Irritants: Refrain from using chemicals or fragrances that cause allergic reactions as they may affect your skin and make it sensitive to IPL.

④Monitor Environmental Factors: Consider the environmental conditions like air pollution, dust, and weather conditions that may increase your skin sensitivity.

A proper skin test and its success is a good indicator that your skin is in good health to receive IPL hair removal treatment.  Proper skin protection measures further ensure its readiness to receive IPL.
