Methods:
A total of 24 of the original 31 patients who took part in the one treatment, 3-month, intense pulsed light trial were examined again at 1 year following the treatment.
Results:
Long-term epilation of 75% hair removal was found in this group of patients after 1 year with a single treatment.
Conclusion:
The intense pulsed light source is an effective method for providing long-term epilation of unwanted hair.
