The trick was using longer pulsewidths to effectively denature the proteins in the follicles. Nanosecond pulses are way too short to do that, so we designed the system to output millisecond pulses instead.
It took a couple of years but we finally succeeded and launched the first IPL system designed for the aesthetic market into the UK in 1999 - the 'Plasmalite'. Fortunately, by this time, the expression 'IPL' had been created (by an unknown person!!)
The rest is, as they say, history....
