Is it safe to use the ipl machine

The IPL system was developed from years of research at the Wellman Laboratories of Photo-medicine, one of the world's leading medical laser research institutions. The IPL is pulsed, or "turned on," for only a fraction of a second and the duration of each pulse is just long enough to disable the hair follicles. A unique component of the IPL system, the actively cooled sapphire hand-piece, was designed to protect the skin by actively cooling it before, during and after the IPL is transmitted. It also actively draws off heat from the skin surface, which further protects the skin from injury.
