Choosing the Right IPL Settings for Your Skin Tone
So you’ve just bought your SmoothSkin IPL device for hair removal or skin rejuvenation — congratulations! You’re one step closer to smoother, more radiant skin. But what comes next?
For first-time users, figuring out the right IPL settings for your skin tone can feel a little intimidating. Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered with a simple step-by-step guide to ensure you use your device safely and effectively.
⚠️ Why Skin Tone Matters in IPL Hair Removal
IPL works by targeting pigment (melanin) in your hair follicle. Because of this, results can vary depending on the contrast between your skin tone and hair color. The good news? SmoothSkin IPL devices are designed with skin tone sensors and adjustable settings to personalize your treatment safely — no matter your skin type.
✅ 3 Steps to Selecting the Right IPL Level
Step 1: Check Your Skin Tone
Refer to the skin tone guide included in the SmoothSkin manual. Match your skin tone to the closest example listed. Even a rough match is a great starting point to customize your treatment.
Step 2: Adjust Device Settings
Once your skin tone is identified, adjust the IPL power level accordingly:
- Lighter skin tones typically tolerate higher settings
- Darker skin tones should use lower settings to avoid overexposure
💡 With SmoothSkin’s Smart Skin Sensor, the device often selects the right level automatically — making this step even easier.
Step 3: Perform a Patch Test
If you have darker skin or sensitive areas, it’s essential to patch-test first. Wait 24 hours and monitor the area. This reduces the risk of irritation or unwanted reactions.
Note: IPL works best when there’s a clear contrast between skin and hair, such as dark hair on light skin. For those with dark skin and dark hair, SmoothSkin’s advanced sensor technology helps keep the treatment safe and effective.
💬 Final Tip
Follow the instructions in your SmoothSkin manual for the most accurate and personalized settings. When used correctly, IPL is not only safe — it can be transformative for your skin. Whether you’re tackling unwanted hair or improving your skin texture, consistent and careful use will yield long-term benefits.
