Prior to the info:
The Intensed Pulsed Light (IPL) technology uses light pulses, in this method, the pigment melanin in the hair root absorbs the light and the hair is heated. The light energy disables the hair follicle deep into the skin and prevents further hair growth.
To the extent that the general information of the different manufacturers
Before you start you have all devices first shave the skin, not epilate. Finally, the light pulse to the hair root must which is not logically if no longer there.
When Remington the instrument measures to define the skin surface to the light intensity that you then have to manually set. At Philips it was only for a photo table. That's been better here.
Then you put at the head of the unit and press the shutter button and a light pulse, we initiated as a flashlight. The head must be applied exactly and precisely, so that the window "flush with the skin.
Here at once the lower rate is noticeable. At Philips I can just press the shutter button when the head precisely and primarily rests properly that will be shown to me by a lamp on the device outside.
When Remington I have the sensing at the Auflegestelle "I will know only when it acts then. I think that's not good for beginners. But since I have experience with these devices have, I know how to do it properly. Beginners should come to the right feel "whether the head, or the window is positioned properly. This is rounded off the head, that's getting used to for me.
Important: Only one light pulse to a skin POINT, go not to doubly sure, dear miss if you do not remember.
The hair root is now forced to "turn out in regression phase, and then to go into the resting phase shortly before. If it fails then grows naturally once a new after, therefore re-application after 2-3 weeks and then to deal with the new root to it to keep in the resting phase, ie before a new hair grows and comes completely through the skin. This happens only after the specified min. 3 treatments.
Not the hair epilation during treatment, only shave.
Feel you do when treating himself nothing, or one may not feel anything when the intensity was high, then you may feel a tingling sensation after the treatment, similar to if you had been too long in the sun, choose a lower level next time , Aloe Vera Gel Pur after treatment here is very good and also recommended no tingle. A contact gel is not (necessarily) require.
From experience this treatment (every 2-3 weeks) 4-5 months to then actually no more hair grows and you only have to carry out every 6-8 weeks light pulse treatment lasts. (At Philips I after 2 months already results.) In the meantime, the hair will grow ever softer and often much brighter after. Interrupts can the cycle you have to start all over again. I note that now in the calendar.
Caveat:
What I personally do not like compared to Philips, is that the Remington has no battery and I have always fiddling with a thick cord, here too the lower price is noticeable.
Simultaneously, the Remington is also no space-saver, by the base / holder he is really clunky. What I would not rate as a trigger, because if it delivers a better result in 3-4 months. In the same price range are also a device with battery of Babyliss what I had also tested. He has also worked, but the Philips was better and faster in the long-term comparison but in comparison to the Babyliss Remington because the battery is better.
I'm going to test about 3 months and report here what the comparison test and the result has been.
I can only advise against such a purchase, to be well informed in advance, since the light pulse treatment without is not, Read instructions well.
Birthmarks and pigmented lesions (or who once had skin cancer) with this unit may not be treated, always leave these places. Maybe better times consult the dermatologist before. Wear safety glasses for eye would also be beneficial, which provided only as an extra with the Babyliss. But can also buy them separately.
Supplement for about 6 weeks and 2 applications:
I'll stop taking the Remington now that the light intensity shortly after the second application at my skin irritations led similar to a sunburn. My dermatologist has me now, of course, forbidden to carry on with this device, as it also believed that the intensity of the light pulses is too strong for me. At least those who had given me the equipment while I had, I have chosen a lower level because of the tingling after the first application. The Philips site has passed without objection from him. Now I have very fair skin and I'm generally sun sensitive.
The action concerning the hair growth is that the hairs nachwuchsen little brighter after the first application, which was on the side of the same Philips. Unfortunately, mine is now too delicate to go on, I'll stay with the Philips for the future, I am using this for over a year and I had no problems with it, the same applies to the Baby Bliss. The Remington is for my skin rather probably nothing.
