INTRODUCING LASER SPECIALISTS ELAINE & DEBORAH

HAIR REMOVAL

Hair growth and its management is an emotional and social issue throughout the world, and women in particular are subject to enormous pressure to conform to social and cultural norms. The development of laser and intense pulsed light systems has made long-term hair reduction possible for all skin types.

BENEFITS OF IPL FOR HAIR REDUCTION:

Safe and reliable - Selectively targets and destroys only the hair follicles while avoiding high heat levels for the safest light-based treatment available.

Simple and easy - A plug and pulse system that requires no cooling gels or pre-treatment procedures.

Quick - With the largest spot size around, even large body areas can be treated quickly and efficiently.

Unbeatable value - The innovative technology makes for a much more efficient and cost-effective system for both the practitioner and the client.

CLINICAL PROCESS

Hair removal by laser and Intense Pulsed Light uses selective photothermolysis to destroy the regenerative cells of the hair follicle. The light is absorbed by melanin in the hair, creating heat that that travels down the hair into the hair follicle. The structures of the hair follicle are destroyed by the heat, preventing re-growth of hair from the follicle.

An Intense Pulsed Light treatment does not frazzle the hair, as long pulses of light are released. The skin may become slightly red for a few hours immediately following treatment. The hair is pushed out by the surrounding skin renewal, and so results are seen after several days. Typically 6 to 12 treatments are required, depending on other related issues such as hormonal influences.

Laser treatment will immediately vaporise the hair. The skin may become slightly red in the area, and follicular swelling is often seen. Typically 4 to 8 treatments are required, depending on other related issues such as hormonal influence.

* A pulse train of light is delivered into the skin through a clear gel.
* The cells of the papilla and bulge reach temperatures of more than 70C and are destroyed.
* The absorbed energy heats the hair and the hair shaft.
* The hair is shaved prior to treatment. Only hairs in the active phase of the growth cycle are destroyed.
