PTF Epilation

What is PTF ?


""That's the latest laser hair removal method - Photo Therapy Flash technology .
If you are tired of shaving, plucking or waxing, photo therapy flash is the best option.  
With better results than the previous technology, PTF has gained popularity in society today. 
Actually Photo therapy flash is an upgrade of IPL / Intense Pulsed Light/.  
This is seen to be a better option for laser hair removal.
There are significant differences of the PTF from its predecessors. 
The light pulse duration that is emitted from the machine is widened effectively.  
The heat energy penetrates deeper into the skin is using lesser light which causes lesser damage to the surrounding skin.  
This makes treatment painless and Photo therapy flash technology is able to treat all types of skin.
As with other laser hair removal method, one session is still not enough to reduce or eradicate hair growth altogether.  
Photo therapy flash or PTF still requires at least four to eight sessions for each client depending on the part of the body that is treated as well as skin and hair type.  
As a general practice, those with light hair type experience more laser hair removal treatment than those with darker hair.  
So know what type of hair and skin beforehand to have an estimate of the number of sessions needed to make this hair reduction method effective. ""

Well ~ That is the kind of  information you can find in the internet about PTF

And I will talk about my own experience here
4 yrs ago I went to hair removal with IPL . 
[for my bikini zone]
It was so expensive at that time - 40EU for one session ! 
[It is quite expensive for Bulgaria standards with 120EU minimal salary range. ]
And I needed like 8 sessions as the cosmetician said to me then.
Actually I went to only 3 sessions . 
So maybe this is why , the result was not permanent or it was gonna be not permanent at all.
After the first session I lost like 90% of the hair . 
Which was amazing. 
But they grow back again , slowly slowly . within a month they were back ~
 I had to go once a month, just like waxing procedure . 
Well the good thing is it is so much more painless.
And what's the difference between PTF and IPL actually ?
According to me the very same is happening with the PTF .

Differences between IPL and PTF treatment
[in my case]


 and the common thing is the pain!

1. Pain is like a pinching and         1. Pain is absolutely the same
hot flash for a second                        as with IPL
[but still there is a pain in both ways ! It is not painless at all as they say!]

I know you all dream about having a hairless bikini zone !
Well this is isn't me XD but the result is really like that after the 4th session only
hope the result is permanent and no more bad shaving , painful waxing !

    1. hello . i did 8 sessions for my underarm hair and then stopped . after the 8th session almost 90% was gone , then i used shaver and now some of the hair is back again , but still less than the beggining . so in conclusion after 8 sessions and shaving afterwards , 60% is gone, which for me is ok , bcuz it does not look too dense and black even i dont shave for 2 weeks .
