Comforth IPL Pro - Permanent Hair Remover

IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. It became available in beauty salons in 1997.

The technology allows gentle and effective treatment of unwanted hair growth by sending light pulses into the hair follicles, which are absorbed by the melanin and converted into heat, preventing further hair growth.

Laser hair removal uses monochromatic laser light, while IPL uses broad-spectrum pulsed light. IPL's multiple wavelengths make it gentle on the skin and reduce side effects without affecting effectiveness.

IPL uses selective photothermolysis and is absorbed only in the hair follicles. Dermatological experts have approved IPL as safe and long-lasting. Comforth Scandinavia ensures quality and safety of approved appliances.

Please read the accompanying manual and contact our customer service at support@comforth.com if you have questions.

No. During treatment, you may experience a slight tingling sensation, but due to the IceCool technology, the skin is kept cool, so the treatment is pleasant and painless.

Side effects are rare (<1%) and short-lived. They include redness, irritation, and mild tenderness that can be relieved with aloe vera and/or ice. Perform a spot test 24 hours before treatment. There is no long-term discomfort.

Be aware of the risk of burns with IPL on dark skin, mole or tattoos, as they absorb light energy as heat.

Please see our guide here.

The product also comes with a detailed user manual that contains all the information you need.

Yes! Here are some tips to get more out of your treatments:

Scheduling treatments:
To get the best results, repeat the treatment 1-2 times a week for 12 about weeks, depending on skin tone and hair colour. Consider using a calendar to keep track of treatment dates and avoid forgetting them or over-treating.

Find a good place and use a mirror:
Ensure space for free movement, proximity to a power outlet and a mirror to ensure correct positioning of the appliance. Take your time to perform the treatment.

Take pictures along the way:
Take pictures along the way to track progress, document results, identify underperforming areas and maintain consistency. In addition, it is also motivating to see weekly improvements.

Yes. Your eyes are safe as long as you are not looking directly at the laser, but for safety reasons you should still protect your eyes with the specially designed goggles provided.

Both the protective glasses and the razor are located under the hard plastic form in the box where the device is found.

Before we send out our IPL Hair Removers, we always test the machine's flash capability on a special glass plate (we do not test on skin). Therefore, when you receive the IPL Pro, the flash counter will often be between 999,950-999,980.

Avoid treating very dark skin as it absorbs the energy as heat and may cause irritation or burns. IPL is best suited for light to brown/olive skin, where the melanin difference between skin tone and hair colour is great enough.

IPL is less effective on red, blonde, gray and white hair. This is due to the ratio of the melanin types eumelanin, which responds to IPL, and pheomelanin, which does not.

- Dark blonde hair can respond to IPL, but results take longer. Light blond hair is not suitable.
- Gray or white hair lacks melanin, which is why IPL does not work on these hair colours.
- If the hair is red, it depends on the ratio between eumelanin and pheomelanin.

See visual guides for blonde and red hair to assess whether the IPL is right for you here.

Avoid intense sunlight and sunbed at least 1 week before and 24 hours after treatment, but preferably 2 weeks before and 48 hours after.

If you use sunscreen with a factor of 30 or higher, there is no problem with being out in the sun.

Read our blog post on IPL and sun exposure here.

You can treat areas such as armpits and intimate areas in the summer as these areas are not as exposed to the sun, but follow the guidelines for sun exposure and use sunscreen.

Legs and arms can also be treated if you use sunscreen.

However, it is not recommended to treat the face in summer, as it is difficult to avoid the sun and the risk of forgetting to apply sunscreen is too high.

Therefore, wait with treating your face until autumn and winter.

Avoid self-tanning a week before treatment, as this activates the pigment in the epidermis, just like sunbathing.

The recommendation is to shave, as plucking, waxing and epilation remove the hair root, which is what absorbs the IPL energy.

After a completed treatment course with Comforth IPL Pro, the razor can be permanently thrown away!

Higher hair density requires more treatments (eg. armpits compared to legs).

Comforth IPL has settings for the body, face and intimate area, which ensures optimal treatment whereever you choose to use it.

Comforth IPL can be used on the whole body with settings for the face, intimate area and body. Wear safety glasses and avoid the eye area.

Do not use on testicles and labia, as the temperature can effect these areas.

Shaving before treatment ensures full energy absorption in the hair follicles. Unshaved hair can absorb energy, creating a risk of burns and reducing the effectiveness of the treatment.

Shave 24 hours before treatment to avoid skin irritation.

Although no studies show harmful effects of IPL during pregnancy or breastfeeding, it is recommended to avoid IPL during these periods to be completely safe.

Yes, but you must NOT use the machine directly on the tattoos.

During menstruation, the skin may be more sensitive, but this does not affect the effectiveness of the treatment. However, it is advisable to plan your treatments outside of your menstrual period to avoid discomfort.

Use the machine 1-2 times a week for 10-12 weeks. After this period, perform follow-up treatments approximately once a month to maintain results. Gradually reduce the treatment intensity to every 2-3 month over time.

Yes, IPL works for both sexes.

However, men may require more follow-up treatments than women due to increased testosterone, which affects hair growth and the hair cycle.

Permanent hair removal means that the damaged hair follicles are gone forever. But the body can form new hair follicles over time, which means that no treatment can ensure complete permanent hairlessness without follow-up treatments, including laser treatments and clinic treatments.

New hair follicles form slowly and are influenced by genetics, hormones and age. After a completed course of treatment, follow-up treatments are only necessary approximately every 1-3 months.

There is no specific time frame for permanent hair removal as we are all different and our bodies react differently to the treatment. The effectiveness depends on the skin and hair tone as well as the hair growth in the specific area.

Hair growth is affected by genetics, hormones and factors such as pregnancy, menstruation, PCOS and use of birth control pills. In general, it takes about 8-12 weeks to become completely hair-free, but results vary from person to person. It is important to continue the treatments to see progress week by week.

After 3-5 weeks, the hairs will grow back more slowly and more sparingly. A single treatment is not enough, so follow a treatment plan with regular treatments.

After 12 weeks, you will see fewer hairs, and only need maintenance once a month and over time every 2-3 months. Complete a full 12-week course for best results and remember to treat every week.

When more than 8 weeks have passed after your first IPL treatment and you notice that hair is not growing back, you can assume that the treatment has been successful. Before this, the removed hairs will grow back, but thinner and softer over time.

After several treatments, no new hair will grow back, and only monthly maintance is required.

After the course of treatment, follow-up treatments are still required. Although the hairs that are removed are gone permanently, new hairs will grow in the body over time, especially during hormonal changes.

Therefore, start with monthly treatments for 3 months, and reduce to every 2-3 months as needed hereafter.

After achieving your dream result, monthly follow-up treatments are recommended, with a gradual tapering off to every 2-3 months. month as needed.

Hormones and genetics affect hair growth, and in ones twenties, more treatments may be necessary due to hormonal changes.

Age and more stable hormones can increase the durability of permanent hair removal. In addition, hormonal factors such as pregnancy, menstruation, PCOS and birth control pills can also affect the need for follow-up treatments.

Comforth IPL Pro is a powerful machine, but some customers may experience not achieving the desired results.

One should expect 75-95% hair growth reduction depending on genetics and hair growth. Even in the professional industry of permanent hair removal in clinics, it is estimated that approximately 2-5% of patients do not respond satisfactorily to the treatment, regardless of which machine is used. The exact reason for this is still unknown.

That's why we offer a 100-day satisfaction guarantee, which is an offer that professional clinics can't match.

It is our noblest task to help you achieve your dream result. Therefore, do not hesitate to contact us at support@comforth.com, if you have any questions whatsoever.

People who do not experience IPL results are typically younger and have more hormonal fluctuations.

Hair growth slows and hormones become more stable in ones thirties and forties, meaning the effectiveness of IPL increases with age.
