Laser hair removal works to permanently eradicate unwanted hair by targeting and disabling cells responsible for its growth. This method may reduce or even eradicate the need for shaving, waxing and cream depilatories.
Hair will eventually regrow, though perhaps at a less noticeable density and in lighter patches than before. To maintain results, regular maintenance treatments will need to take place to keep up the results.
Motus AX
Motus AX is an advanced laser hair removal machine that offers fast, painless treatment sessions. Utilizing an Alexandrite laser and sapphire cylinder tip handpiece, it delivers energy directly into unwanted hair follicles to deactivate them and stop new hair growth from taking place.
Early laser hair-removal treatments were only effective when there was a clear contrast between your skin pigmentation and hair tonality, therefore not suitable for people with dark skin or darker hair tones. However, Motus AX offers treatments suitable for treating more diverse skin tones and colors – making it an excellent solution for anyone tired of shaving daily or waxing to get rid of unwanted hair.
Motus AX laser device delivers superior results for those with lighter skin to other laser devices, since it safely treats melanin without burning or altering its color. Furthermore, its effectiveness covers almost all body areas including face, legs, and arms.
Motus AX laser treatments deliver impressive results in just six sessions due to its targeting technology which treats only hair in its active growth phase; any dormant hair won’t be treated during these sessions.
Other lasers can produce an uncomfortable snapping sensation when passing over skin; but this is not an issue with Motus AX due to its contact cooling system and gradual heating process, reducing risk and discomfort significantly.
Motus AX laser can also be used to effectively treat benign pigmented lesions and rejuvenate skin, thanks to its Moveo technology which transfers energy more efficiently for superior results on all skin tones.
Motus AX laser hair removal technology is considered safe for virtually all skin types and comes highly recommended by registered nurses and estheticians for various reasons, including:
IPL
If shaving, plucking and waxing become cumbersome or do not produce desired results it may be time to seek alternative forms of hair removal. One such popular permanent hair reduction treatment is IPL (intense pulsed light). This technique uses light waves to permanently reduce unwanted hair while simultaneously preventing it from growing back. IPL units are commonly found at salons but there are also portable units sold as home use handheld units available for home use handheld use; IPL can reduce unwanted hair for up to one year – however multiple sessions may be needed in order to achieve optimal results.
Before embarking on IPL hair removal, there are a few key considerations. First and foremost, your skin must be free from tans or discoloured patches; while most modern laser and IPL machines can work on dark skin tones, an increase in melanin pigments in your skin could interfere with how well IPL lights interact with it; it’s wise to avoid sunbathing prior to your treatment session as this could influence its efficacy.
Prior to beginning any IPL treatment, it is advised that you refrain from plucking and waxing the area for several weeks prior. IPL uses light pulses that target melanin pigments found within hair follicles; by plucking or waxing hair follicles you will prevent its light beam from hitting its target and thus destroying them. You should also avoid depilatory creams or shaving at this time.
Although laser and IPL treatments are relatively painless, some individuals may still experience discomfort from it. The IPL machine emits bursts of light which heat up the unwanted hair and surrounding tissue, potentially causing discomfort for those sensitive to heat. Luckily, newer laser and IPL machines use cooling headpieces which help alleviate any potential discomfort during treatment.
Before booking a hair removal treatment, it is vital that you do your research and locate a fully qualified therapist. Failing this could result in burns and scarring; additionally make sure the salon you attend offers state-of-the-art equipment which is safe and dependable.
Diode
Laser hair removal is an increasingly popular cosmetic treatment that employs light energy to eradicate unwanted hair. The light energy absorbed by melanin in the hair follicle damages it and prevents further growth; providing a safer alternative than waxing or plucking; the process is fast, painless, and does not harm surrounding skin cells.
Diode laser technology is suitable for most skin types and can be applied to all body parts, such as underarms, bikini line, face, legs, back, upper lip, and chin. Diode laser hair removal works best on dark-haired individuals with lighter skin tones.
Laser energy passes through the top layers of skin to target pigment in hair shafts, protecting follicles from being damaged while targeting pigmented spots on surrounding skin. It has also proven useful when dealing with tanned skin or dark hair – however more treatments may be required than with other laser hair removal methods to see results.
Laser hair removal works by pulsing light energy from a laser into the surface and dermis layers of skin, where it is then converted to heat by the chromophores under your skin that control hair growth. This process may also include cooling technology to ease pain associated with laser hair removal.
Diode lasers offer more targeted and reliable hair reduction results for women with darker hair than IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). This treatment option is especially ideal for anyone concerned with their appearance who wishes to rid themselves of unwanted growth.
Laser hair removal can be more effective than conventional methods such as shaving, waxing and tweezing for eliminating unwanted body hair. Lasers can be used on any area of the body including underarms, arms, back and bikini line. Furthermore, this treatment can even be used around eyes! Lasers also tend to be faster – typically taking eight minutes for legs and one for faces respectively.
Alexandrite
The Alexandrite laser is one of the most sought-after solutions for permanent hair reduction due to its speed and effectiveness. Its 755 nanometer wavelength absorbs melanin pigment in your hair to destroy it; and features an advanced cooling system designed to ensure maximum comfort during treatment – an important aspect that contributes to client satisfaction with results.
Laser hair removal treatments are faster than waxing because lasers can treat multiple hairs at once. Furthermore, electrolysis treatments tend to be much more painful. While everyone’s tolerance levels differ and laser treatment can sometimes be uncomfortable for some individuals – we may prescribe numbing cream in order to alleviate discomfort; many have likened the sensation to snapping rubber bands against skin. We may also recommend pre-procedural numbing cream depending on individual circumstances and tolerance levels.
At Ideal Image locations for laser hair removal, all our machines are FDA-cleared and fully customizable for each clinic’s individual client needs. Each clinic features Candela Alexandrite machines equipped with our innovative BLEND X technology that allows synchronizing Alexandrite and Nd:YAG laser wavelengths into custom treatments tailored specifically for their skin type and hair color.
Once your initial treatments have taken place, you should see a permanent decrease in hair growth. Most often, hair will stop growing after two to six sessions and when it does return it will be finer and lighter in color than ever.
Laser therapy works because it destroys hair follicles and stops them from producing more. Unfortunately, however, it will not eliminate all hair in an area; some follicles will still produce hair but at an increasingly slower pace over time.
When treating hair growth in an area, laser treatments should be administered every three or four weeks in order to destroy maximum number of follicles and prevent future hair production. If your area doesn’t produce much hair growth, treatments could occur every five to eight weeks instead.
