Using your new OG IPL can be an adjustment at first, but you’ll get the hang of it right away. We’ll go over step-by-step instructions on what to do before, during, and after treatment, plus a video to help you visualize the whole process.

Before Starting IPL:

• Be sure to shave any visible hair before use. 

• Ensure your hair is completely clean and dry, free of any creams or gels. 

• For best results, exfoliate the skin 24 hours before using your IPL handset. 

How to Use Your OG IPL Handset:

1) Plug the handset in and click the green button on the back to turn it on. 

2) If this is your first session, make sure the intensity level is set to 1. Use the same green button to switch through intensity levels – the blue lights on the front will indicate which intensity level your device is currently set to, from 1-5 (low-high).  

For the fastest results, we recommend using the highest intensity level you feel comfortable with. Plan on gradually increasing the intensity level with each new session, as long as the experience wasn’t painful.

3) When you’re ready, place the light window completely flat against your skin. The pink light will begin to blink, indicating that the handset is ready to be used. 

4) Click the Pulse button to begin IPL treatment. Lift the device slightly after each pulse and move it to a different area of skin to avoid overheating. Continue until the entire intended area has been treated.

For stubborn areas, we recommend that you treat the area up to 2 times per week and to try a higher intensity. 

5) Once you’ve finished, press and hold the green button on the back to turn off your handset and disconnect your device from the power supply.

After Using Your OG IPL Handset:

• Use an aloe-based cream or lotion like our Aloe Coconut Body Lotion immediately following IPL treatment to help your skin heal and minimize any feelings of discomfort. 

• Avoid strong sun exposure.

• Consistency is key – plan on repeating the IPL treatment process 1-2 times per week for twelve weeks for best results.
