Device Description

The Beurer IPL 5500 device is pulsed light hair removal device. Light-based hair removal is based on the theory of selective photothermolysis in which optical energy is used to disable hair growth. The Beurer IPL 5500 device is composed of a hand held applicator and an external power supply. The spot size (treatment area) in the Beurer IPL 5500 device is 3 cm2. The device contains a lamp, a skin proximity sensor and a skin pigmentation sensor to detect appropriate skin tones. If the Beurer IPL 5500 device is not properly applied (in full contact with the skin) or user skin tone is too dark/tanned, the Beurer IPL 5500 device will not trigger a pulse.
