I'm asking this question because the IPL device I use mentions a schedule of multiple times a week before ramping down to once a week. Most other IPL devices like Braun only mention once a week.

Since I don't see any other responses I will throw this out, I am far from knowledgeable here, I looked at it a bit a few years ago. I believe the aggressive initial phase is to target different stages of hair growth before ramping down to maintenance.

yeah I'll back this up, I usually have to do it like twice a week for about two weeks and that knocks out the majority of my hair, and then once a week after allows me to do a general once-over and target the spots I've missed in my initial stages.
