A7 - IPL Hair Removal - How to achieve good results, from an expert - Marlon!
This is an interesting post! In it I will introduce one of my oldest customers – Marlon, from SkinteX Clinic in Glasgow. His is an unusual route into this industry. He has been an IT consultant, a driving instructor and a circus lion-tamer.
About 9 years ago he decided that a life in the beauty industry was what he really wanted all the time!! So, he contacted me for some training. After around 18 months he finally opened his clinic, in the Southside of Glasgow.
Since then, he has won various awards and has grown his business substantially. He has treated around 1000 hair clients in those years and has achieved between 95 and 97% success rate. He typically requires between 6 and 7 sessions, in total, so, clearly knows what he’s doing.
I interviewed him in September 2022 to find out more. I split the video into a series of 6 short videos:
No. 1 – “Hello”
Marlon says ‘hi’
No. 2 – Choice of equipment

Here, Marlon explains why he bought an IPL device.

No. 3 – Fluences, pulsewidths and skin cooling
In this video, he explains his choice of fluences and pulsewidths – which go way higher than the values I trained him originally. This explains why he gets such good results consistently! He also talks about the critical importance of skin cooling.
