No one wants to have hairs on the legs, underarms, and hands – especially when the bikini season arrives. That’s why many people frequent salons and spas to get the hair removed, preferably, permanently. However, the beauty and comfort do not come easy – it comes at a price. 

Well, the promise of permanent hair is obviously enticing – after all, once the process is done, you can enjoy the hair-free body forever. A 2013 report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons indicated that laser removal of hair comes forth only after Botox, fillers, and chemical peels in the most common minimally invasive procedure that people go through. However, like other skin care procedures, laser hair removal comes at a cost. In fact, an underarm air removal procedure may cost you an upward of 500 AUD per session. And you may need between two to eight treatments to get the long-term hairlessness results. 

Luckily, inventors have come up with a way to help an average person to still enjoy the benefits of laser hair removal, without breaking the bank. Today, it’s possible to get your IPL at home – without the cost. These devices are designed to give you even better results in half the time that the earlier inventions wouldn’t. 

An IPL is not necessarily a laser, though it works under the same principles. The main difference between a laser and IPL is the type of energy emitted and size of wavelengths. An IPL uses short bursts of light to target and remove follicles and can be applied on large skin patches. You’ll hardly feel any irritation or pain while using it, so it’s a perfect solution if you have sensitive skin. In contrast, true lasers use lasers which sink deeper into the skin to give a more targeted hair treatment. Lasers come in different shapes and sizes, each offering a different wavelength. 

Having an IPL at home is a great way to save money. If you think about it, you won’t need to go through the stress of booking an appointment, driving across town for the several treatments and pay hundreds of dollars. All you need to do is grab the device and point it to your hair, and voila! It’s all gone – without having to leave the house. Let’s face it; a treatment from the comfort of your own home is just pretty appealing. 

Speaking about convenience, imagine wanting a massage after a long day at work; you’d need to book for an appointment, head to the spa before going home. In as much as it’s relaxing, the idea of going all the way to the resort is just taxing. So, rather than going through that struggle every time you need a massage, you can grab a Hitachi magic wand and enjoy a massage anywhere, anytime. The same concept applies for hair removal products.
