At-home IPL hair removal with Crenot Graci X3: how to use it and stay safe
- IPL uses pulses of light absorbed by the pigment in hair follicles, so hair grows back slower and thinner over repeated sessions.
- Crenot Graci X3: 999,999 flashes, 9 intensity levels, Infinity Ice Compress cooling to limit stinging, automatic or manual mode.
- Safety: always wear the protective glasses, test a small patch at the lowest level first, and never use it on damaged skin.
How does IPL work?
An IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) device emits broad-spectrum light pulses. Melanin in the hair and follicle absorbs the light energy, which turns into heat and weakens the follicle, so hair grows back slower and thinner. Because hair grows in cycles, repeated sessions are needed for clear results.

Using Graci X3 step by step
- Shave and clean the area; skin should be dry with no cream.
- Put on the protective glasses and choose a mode and intensity. The first time, test a small patch at the lowest level.
- Hold the window flat and perpendicular against the skin. In Auto mode it flashes as you glide; in manual mode you press for each flash.
- When finished, switch off, unplug the adapter from the device and then from the socket. After 10 minutes, wipe the flash window with a soft cloth.
Aftercare
After about 20 minutes you can apply a moisturiser. If the skin feels uncomfortable, apply a cold compress for 30–60 minutes. Keep treated skin out of strong sun and use sunscreen when you go out.
When to be careful
- Do not treat skin that is injured, inflamed or sunburnt.
- As generally advised for IPL devices: avoid tattoos, moles and very dark skin; IPL works poorly on white, grey, light blonde or red hair.
- If you are pregnant, have a skin condition or take light-sensitising medication, ask a doctor first.
- The device is not waterproof: use and store it in a dry place, never in the shower.
