Excessive hair growth is a telltale symptom of PCOS, making it hard to rid oneself. Thanks to advances in beauty technology, however, removing unwanted facial and body hair has never been simpler! With Kenzzi devices that feature cold touch technology for safe removal without burning or pain.
1. Soprano Platinum
Unwanted hair can be an annoying problem for anyone, but those living with PCOS face an added layer of complexity. Electrolysis remains the sole permanent solution; however, this treatment can be painful, time consuming, and costly. Over the past decade laser technology has steadily advanced, offering shorter treatment sessions and lessened discomfort; Alma Laser’s Soprano Ice Platinum laser system offers this innovative Super Hair Removal (SHR) method and In-Motion technology as its flagship device.
Soprano Platinum employs Trio Clustered Diode Technology which combines three laser wavelengths into an innovative handpiece that simultaneously targets different tissue depths and anatomical structures in the hair follicle, which makes Soprano so effective compared to most other laser hair removal systems which only utilize one wavelength at once and cannot treat light hair such as blonde or white locks. Soprano Platinum’s effectiveness extends across skin types including those who don’t tolerate traditional treatment of light hair with bleached shades – making Soprano an ideal choice for all skin types including blonde or white locks!
Soprano Platinum also features SHR Mode which can offer up to 45% reduction of ingrown hairs (pseudofolliculitis barbae). This works by emitting low-energy pulses which target only hair follicles without damaging surrounding skin – creating an easier, smoother treatment experience for all patients.
SHR mode can reduce treatment times by half thanks to its rapid heating technology that quickly heats the follicle. When combined with its cooling technology, Soprano Platinum becomes virtually pain-free; most patients report feeling only warm sensation. Plus it covers larger areas than traditional laser systems can.
Soprano Ice is suitable for all skin types & tones, particularly Asian and darker complexions. It can be used on facial features, bikini areas, legs and arms; and sensitive areas such as ears. Men are welcome to use Soprano Ice as well. Soprano Ice Platinum is an innovative product which may be particularly helpful with unwanted hair due to PCOS; to find out if Soprano Platinum could help you, book an appointment with Hilton Skin & Body Clinics Reading today to see if Soprano Platinum might work just for you!
2. Kenzzi
Kenzzi IPL machines provide effective ways for women with PCOS to stop excessive hair growth at home and rid themselves of this unwanted fur.
This machine uses an ice cold tip to provide your skin with maximum comfort while targeting hair follicles. Use it on legs, face, or underarms – although avoid using near eyes as this device may cause burns.
As opposed to waxing and shaving, using the Kenzzi is faster and less painful, plus you can do it at your leisure whenever it plugs in. Just keep in mind that recently-tanned skin should not be exposed as this increases risk for melanomas.
3. IPL & RF
This device is the ideal at-home IPL hair removal machine for PCOS as it uses not only IPL but also radio frequency (RF) to remove body hair. IPL heats hair follicles enough to damage them before the RF completely destroys them – creating an exceptionally safe device with an intuitive app guiding users through every step. Plus, its soothing sapphire head soothes skin irritation after treatments and three power modes let you customize treatments according to skin type and need.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is one of the most effective solutions for hormonally driven hair growth, making it suitable for PCOS sufferers. Like laser treatments, IPL uses broad spectrum light energy to target pigmented follicles and prevent new hairs from growing back; however, its prices and convenience surpass these treatments.
This at-home IPL device can be used effectively on all skin tones, even those with very dark coloured hairs, and has been clinically proven to work on blonde and red locks as well. Furthermore, the ES-WH90 can also help brighten the complexion – ideal for people suffering from PCOS with uneven or dull complexions.
PCOS and its hormones can have an enormous effect on your appearance, from excess hair growth to acne breakouts. There are treatments available such as electrolysis and laser hair removal which may help alleviate symptoms – however these methods are expensive and only really work if regularly attend appointments; thus at-home devices like the ES-WH90 come into their own here as they can be used by women with different skin tones.
After just a few treatments with the IPL device, results should begin to show; however, up to 14 sessions may be required before smooth, hair-free skin emerges. This is because damaged follicles don’t typically regenerate themselves quickly after IPL treatments; thus requiring you to continue attending top-up sessions to achieve continuous results. Luckily this device has proven just as effective as professional laser treatments so you should enjoy smooth skin for multiple months after starting with this IPL device.

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy can reduce fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, sun damage scarring, acne scarring, as well as increase collagen production for tighter skin. Used by dermatologists in clinics as well as at-home devices like Lumenis diode laser LightSheer or SpectraGenics e-Light devices, IPL treatment provides gentle yet effective skin tightening results.
PCOS symptoms can be treated in various ways, including laser hair removal. While shaving and waxing hair can provide short-term solutions, electrolysis or laser are more long-term and permanent options that work to remove extra hair. While expensive, electrolysis/laser treatments do work effectively.
As well as being inconvenient and embarrassing, excess hair growth can also be embarrassing. But this side effect can be reversed by treating the cause of your hormonal imbalance with medication and lifestyle adjustments such as altering diet and exercise habits, maintaining healthy weight management practices, and treating insulin levels.
The Kenzzi IPL hair removal device provides at-home IPL hair removal using its built-in cooling feature to minimize discomfort, as well as a built-in timer that lets you set the length of each session and five power settings to customize the treatment to your needs. Furthermore, its “smart skin” sensor easily determines which setting best matches your complexion.
Kenzzi also features radiofrequency and skin needling technologies that work together to stimulate collagen production for tightening and rejuvenating of your skin, giving it a more youthful appearance. Furthermore, radiofrequency can reduce acne scars and wrinkles as well.
Kenzzi offers several advantages that make it convenient and less painful than waxing or shaving, including being pluggable so no worry of running out of battery power is ever an issue. You can use it anywhere without worry that it will run out; plus its portability means it can fit easily into a busy schedule! Furthermore, pressing too hard will damage skin.
