Laser hair removal is an effective, permanent way to control unwanted hair growth. Plus, it’s quick, convenient and virtually pain-free!
Older laser treatments were restricted to people with significant differences between skin and hair pigment, but SPLENDOR X can treat people regardless of skin or hair pigment contrast. It uses both Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths with a square-shaped laser spot for treatment.
Benefits
Laser hair removal is a safe, effective, and permanent way to eliminate unwanted hair. The treatment works by targeting pigment (melanin) in hair follicles with concentrated light beams (lasers). This damages them, leading to them no longer growing hair. Laser treatments are less invasive than waxing or shaving and typically pain-free; although patients may experience an occasional slight burning sensation after laser sessions but this usually subsides quickly afterward.
Initial hair removal lasers could not accurately differentiate between skin and hair pigment, making them only suitable for people with very light hair and skin tones. With modern “colorblind” technology targeting melanin more effectively, treatment has become possible for all skin tones and hair colors – including dark ones! Lumenis’ SPLENDOR X stands out as an industry breakthrough with its revolutionary hybrid laser technology combining Alexandrite and Nd:YAG wavelengths into customized treatments tailored specifically for each user based on skin type and hair color!
This high-powered laser boasts a unique square spot size for uniform results across the body. Additionally, its rapid repetition rate and Zimmer cooling provide for comfortable, quick, and virtually pain-free treatment sessions.
SPLENDOR X technology is designed to be gentler on skin than previous machines, and can safely treat all skin tones – including darker tanned ones. By synchronizing wavelengths to match the needs and characteristics of each person’s complexion, this advanced device can ensure you receive optimal treatment tailored specifically for you and all parts of the body quickly and effectively.
Laser treatment sessions typically last approximately 30 minutes for an entire body session. Prior to your appointment, any areas to be treated should be shaved to avoid hair becoming trapped under the skin during treatment, and sun exposure/tanning must be avoided for several days prior to receiving laser therapy. In terms of comfort during this procedure, Zimmer cooling system and special cryogen spray or numbing cream will be available for optimal treatment outcomes.
Side Effects
Unwanted hair growth can be embarrassing, time-consuming and painful to manage. While other methods like shaving or waxing may do the trick, laser treatments offer a more effective and comfortable solution: targeting individual follicles for removal. Lumenis Splendor X laser technology offers particularly gentle yet efficient laser hair removal treatment sessions; most patients only feel a slight sensation of warmth during treatments.
Splendor X’s two adjustable laser wavelengths enable our providers to tailor treatments specifically to all skin tones and hair types, including light ones like finer locks. Alexandrite wavelength can treat lighter skin tones with finer hair while Nd:YAG can target darker tones or coarser locks – giving our providers a tailored treatment for you that helps minimize side effects like redness or blistering.
This system utilizes short bursts of laser energy that penetrate into unwanted hairs, targeting melanin pigment found within their follicles to heat travel down and destroy any future growth from that follicle. At the same time, a dual cooling system provides direct contact cooling onto skin surfaces directly while also blowing cold air over larger treatment areas to ensure you remain comfortable throughout your appointment.
Lumenis Splendor X’s advanced technology makes the hair removal process faster and more precise than traditional laser hair removal systems, with side effects like blistering or burning dramatically reduced. Furthermore, its square spot application ensures more accurate treatment by eliminating overlapped or missed spots that could cause scarring issues.
Before your laser therapy session, it is essential to shave the area that will be treated so that its melanin content can easily reach the laser and not absorb too much heat during treatment, potentially damaging nearby tissues. Shaving also protects you from receiving too much heat during your procedure as your hair would absorb too much of its own heat during this procedure and could become damaged itself.
Treatment Time
Plucking, shaving and waxing are all effective ways of getting rid of unwanted hair; however none are permanent solutions and may not be convenient or efficient in treating areas that need it. Laser hair removal offers another solution; its monochromatic beam emitting light disabling reproductive cycles of hair follicles to stop further hair growth – ideal for both men and women and suitable for all body areas.
Lumenis Splendor X system is an advanced laser hair removal device capable of treating skin of all colors and complexions. Utilizing its BLEND X technology, this advanced device selects an optimal wavelength to fit each individual patient and adjusts during treatment to address changes in pigmentation caused by sun exposure or other external influences.
At each treatment session, the Splendor X laser delivers short bursts of laser energy directly onto any unwanted hairs that need removal. This energy absorbs melanin in the hair shaft and converts it to heat, damaging or destroying follicles so they no longer produce hairs. A dual cooling system will apply contact and air cooling cooling so your experience remains comfortable and pain-free.
Once completed, our series of treatments should achieve 85-95% permanent hair reduction. Following completion, it is wise to come in for touch-up sessions 1-2 times annually in order to maintain your results.
Before your laser treatment begins, it’s essential that any activities which disrupt hair follicles such as tanning or waxing be avoided, along with sun exposure as sunburn can decrease effectiveness of laser sessions.
At Romeo & Juliette, our Lumenis Splendor X laser hair removal device delivers long-term laser hair removal results. Perfect for eliminating unwanted hair on any part of the body, but especially popular among female clients to reduce bikini line and underarm hair growth. Men can use it too to rid themselves of excess armpit and chest hair or as part of an entire Brazilian treatment (the entire pubic area).

Laser hair removal works by targeting melanin in hair follicles and damaging them, stopping their ability to produce new hair growth. The procedure is both fast and relatively pain-free; most patients only experiencing a slight prickling sensation during treatment sessions. Our NYC Splendor X laser system uses low pulse energies combined with dual cooling mechanisms so your skin won’t become overheated while still treating even sensitive areas effectively.
At our laser hair removal treatments, we are delighted to use the cutting-edge Lumenis Splendor X laser system, offering multiple benefits that make it the best solution for our clients.
Gentle: Traditional laser systems struggled to distinguish between skin and hair pigment, rendering them ineffective for those with dark skin or very light hair. But, with its “colorblind” technology, SPLENDOR X offers effective treatment on all skin tones, including those tanned over time.
Rapid Fire Technology and an expanded treatment head allow the SPLENDOR X to rapidly treat large areas, which is ideal for treating larger body parts such as back and legs.
Safe: The SPLENDOR X uses two wavelengths of laser energy to target both hair follicles and their blood supply, making this treatment suitable for many skin tones, from darker hues using Nd:YAG to lighter tones using Alexandrite wavelengths.
The SPLENDOR X features a square-shaped laser spot for safe and precise treatments that eliminate hot spots. Thus making this one of the most comfortable laser hair removal systems available.
While you will see results within just a few treatments, most of our clients typically require six sessions spaced six weeks apart in order to reach 85-95% permanent hair reduction. Once finished, you can enjoy years of silky-smooth skin without ever needing waxing, shaving or plucking again!
