This next generation IPL hair removal device is the first at-home tool to feature ice-cooling hair removal technology to reduce heat output and cool the skin on contact, protecting it from injuries. With traditional hair removal devices, the temperature of light can reach 158℉-212℉. Ulike’s Sapphire Ice-cooling technology cools the skin to 50℉-104℉, effectively avoiding burning and heat injuries. This type of technology is widely used in large salons for a comfortable, painless experience. It banishes hair at the root using multi-spectrum lights converting light energy to heat energy, permanently reducing hair regrowth over time.

Dr. Azadeh Shirazi, board-certified dermatologist and founder of AziMD Skincare, recommends using Ulike's IPL Device for in-between office laser hair removal appointments. "It has a large sapphire crystal hand piece with contact cooling to prevent burns as the laser energy passes from the device through the skin to selectively heat the hair root without injuring the skin," she says. "It's a powerful device. I recommend using it 2-3 times weekly for 4 weeks. Then monthly for maintenance thereafter.

Testing Notes: We didn't expect to love this one, but the cooling technology vastly improves the entire laser hair removal experience. It's virtually painless, which makes treating larger areas easier because you don't have to take a break to recover from the stings. We love that this device isn't as clunky and difficult to maneuver as other devices, which can be awkward to hold. Like any other at-home laser hair removal device, consistency is key, but this device makes it easy to put in the time and effort.
