The IPL Hair Removal Device is a light-based device and an over-the-counter device which is expected to be sold directly to end users. The device provides hair reduction using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology. The purpose of the light is to heat the root where the hair grows. It works below the skin's surface and does not involve any cutting or pulling, reducing hair growth with minimal pain. The device is only powered by the external power adapter and its IPL emission activation is by finger switch. The device has two working modes, an automatic mode and a manual mode. Each mode has 5 levels of output energy. The device contains a Xenon lamp that emits pulses of light (a total of 350000 pulses over the device's lifetime) and a skin sensor to detect appropriate skin contact. If the device is not properly applied to the treatment area (in full contact with the skin), it will cannot emit the treatment light pulses.
