Where Can You Safely Use Your IPL Hair Removal Device?
Considering using an IPL device at home but unsure where on the body it’s safe? You’re not alone. The good news: SmoothSkin IPL devices are designed for safe, effective use on almost all areas of the body, including the face — with a few precautions.
Here’s a guide to help you make the most of your IPL treatment safely.
✅ Common Areas You Can Treat
- Legs, arms, underarms
- Bikini line and lower stomach
- Back and chest
- Face (below the cheekbones only — avoid areas close to the eyes)
Whether you’re targeting thick leg hair or finer facial hair, IPL can handle both with consistent use.
⚠️ General Safety Tips for IPL Use
1. Avoid the Eye Area
Never use IPL near or around your eyes. This includes eyebrows or the upper cheek area. The light intensity could damage your eyes if exposed directly.
👉 Tip: If treating the face, wear safety goggles for extra protection and limit use to the jawline, upper lip, and chin.
2. Patch Test First
For sensitive areas (like the bikini line or face), always perform a patch test:
- Apply one pulse
- Wait 24 hours
- Proceed only if no irritation or pain occurs
This minimizes the chance of discomfort or adverse reactions — especially for sensitive or reactive skin types.
3. Choose the Right Intensity for Your Skin Tone
SmoothSkin IPL devices are equipped with smart skin sensors to automatically select the best setting. Still, read the manual carefully and make sure the treatment level is suitable for your skin and hair type.
👉 Darker skin tones absorb more light, so using lower intensity levels is important for safety.
4. Ask for Help in Hard-to-Reach Areas
If you’re treating spots like the back or upper thighs, having someone assist can improve both coverage and safety. SmoothSkin’s ergonomic design makes self-treatment easy — but extra help never hurts!
💡 Final Advice
IPL hair removal is a safe and effective method when done correctly. With SmoothSkin, safety is built-in — but your comfort comes from knowing how to use it properly.
