IPLASER hair removal: device and protocol
Innovatione’s technology for the hair removal room: light leaves in three short pulses per flash, in the 755–1064 nm range. The treatment is done without ultrasound gel.

- 3pulses per flash
- I–VIskin types
Three pulses instead of one. No gel, on skin types I–VI.
How it works
Three pulses instead of one hit
A conventional system delivers its energy in one pulse, and the skin heats up to the pain threshold. IPLASER splits the flash into three pulses of 14 ms with 300 ms pauses: the epidermis cools in the pauses while heat builds up in the hair follicle. This lets the energy rise without a pain peak.
- Pulse 14 msLight is absorbed by the target pigment
- Pause 300 msThe skin releases heat and cools down
- Three pulsesHeat builds up in the target without a pain peak
The treatment
How many treatments, how long
According to Innovatione, a lasting effect takes 6–8 treatments on dark hair and 8–10 on light hair, at intervals of 6–8 weeks.

Questions and answers
Common questions
How many treatments are needed for a result?
According to Innovatione, a lasting effect takes 6–8 treatments on dark hair and 8–10 on light hair, at intervals of 6–8 weeks. The exact protocol depends on the area, skin type and hair type, and is covered in training at the training centre.
Which skin types can be treated?
The IPLASER 755 handpiece works on skin types I–VI, including dark skin: it works in the 755–1064 nm range, and the treatment protocol sets the parameters for each skin type. The 560 handpiece is for skin types I–III, and for type IV after a test flash.
Is gel needed?
No. The treatment is done without ultrasound gel: the CoolSense system with a temperature sensor in the handpiece cools the skin, and the light leaves in three short pulses.
Is this laser hair removal or IPL?
Technically, IPLASER is pulsed light with narrow-band filtering and three-pulse energy delivery, not a laser.
Which device should I choose for hair removal?
For a hair removal room, iPRO MINI 755. If you also need phototherapy, iPRO MINI DUO.
What are the common contraindications?
Intense tan, flare-ups of chronic dermatoses, taking antibiotics or retinoids, severe hypertension, a history of melanoma. A specialist decides at consultation.
Are there side effects?
They can occur. When the specialist and the client follow the protocols, the risks are very low.
Contraindications apply. Consult a specialist.
