Can IPL help with ingrown hairs?

Philips Lumea IPL is designed for long-term hair reduction. As hair regrowth is reduced over time, some users may notice fewer ingrown hairs over time, due to less frequent hair removal. Individual results may vary. 

Details: Ingrown hairs often occur when the hair grows back unevenly or becomes trapped under the skin after shaving or waxing. Philips Lumea IPL works by gradually reducing hair regrowth. It is not specifically intended to prevent or treat ingrown hairs. With consistent use following the recommended routine, many people notice fewer ingrown hairs and smoother-looking skin, especially in areas prone to irritation. Individual results may vary.
