Skin Rejuvenation FAQs

What Setting Do You Recommend I Should Start On?

Setting 1, this will allow you to see how your skin responds to Laser Skin Rejuvenation. Then increase as you feel comfortable.

Do I Need Eye Protection?

Yes but don’t worry we’ve got you covered. Every box includes a stylish pair of protective glasses.

How Often Can I Use The Device?

Once a week for 12 weeks. Then as you feel you need too. We always recommend using your device in the evening, to avoid extended periods in direct sunlight.

Can I Use This For Just Skin Rejuvenation?

Yes, you can. While IPL is traditionally known for long-term hair reduction, it is also widely used to help improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin and pigmentation. IPL technology works by targeting excess pigment within the skin, helping to break down dark spots, uneven skin tone, and visible sun damage over time.

IPL treatments can be especially effective for:

  • Sun spots
  • Age spots
  • Pigmentation
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Redness and skin discolouration

With consistent use, many users notice a brighter, clearer, and more even-looking complexion.

Preparing The Skin Rules

  • Skin needs to be clean & dry
  • No moisturiser, no fake tan, no deodorant, no perfume, no body oils

Post Treatment Rules

  • No hot showers/baths for the next 3 days
  • No make up for 12 hours
  • No facials for 7 days
  • Do not wax, use hair removal cream for 7 days
  • Use non-scented moisturiser or non- scented sunscreen
  • Do not go into direct sunlight for extended periods.
  • Do not lay in the sun or use sun-beds.
  • Do not shave within 48 hours
  • If you are going outside you please apply sunscreen.

Should I Go Into The Sun After Using The Device?

No.

We recommend avoiding direct sun exposure immediately before and after using the Bondi Body V2 IPL Hair Removal Device. IPL treatments can make the skin more sensitive to UV exposure, which may increase the risk of irritation, redness, or pigmentation changes.

For best results:

  • Avoid excessive sun exposure for at least 48 hours
  • Always wear SPF 30+ on treated areas exposed to sunlight
  • Avoid fake tan or self-tanner before IPL treatments
  • Do not use the device on sunburnt skin

If your skin has recently been exposed to the sun or appears tanned, wait until your skin returns to its natural tone before using IPL.

Protecting your skin from UV exposure helps ensure safer IPL treatments and better long-term hair removal results.

Why Do You Recommend Using The Device In The Winter Months?

Generally speaking the skin is less likely to be tanned. During the winter you tend to lose your tan, however the the pigmentation / sun spots don’t fade.

This allows the device to identify the problem issues. Using the device during this period reduces the possibility of sun exposure.

Will The Sun Spots Pigmentation Come Back?

Pigmentation and sun spots will return when you go out into the sun.

Why Do You Recommend Using The Device At Night?

Allows for down time post treatment if your skin is red, there is no sunlight at night, and you are less likely to wear make up.

Can I Use IPL Laser If I have Rosacea?

If you have been diagnosed with any of the four types of rosacea, we strongly recommend seeking advice from your doctor or dermatologist before using the Bondi Body device or any form of light-based therapy.

Because rosacea can cause increased skin sensitivity, redness, inflammation, and irritation, professional medical advice is important to determine whether IPL or light therapy is suitable for your skin type and condition.

Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before beginning treatment if you have:

  • Rosacea
  • Sensitive or reactive skin
  • Active skin inflammation
  • Ongoing dermatological conditions

Your doctor or dermatologist will be able to advise whether IPL treatment is safe and appropriate for your individual skin concerns.
