How does Laser hair removal work?
Laser Hair Removal destroys the hair follicles and their
ability to grow hair. Hair removal treatments are done with
either an IPL (Intense Pulsed Light machine), BBL ( Broad
Band Light) or various lasers, known as, ND Yags or Diodes.
Each has its pros and cons, its advantages, and limitations.
We have all of the above technology, and we have the Gold
Standard in each class.
Which laser hair removal technology is the
best?
Not all hair removal lasers work equally well. Medical-grade
lasers differ greatly from spa-grade and not all technology
is suitable for every person. Having a basic understanding
of how laser hair removal works and what to expect will save
you time, money and possibly disappointment. Depending on
the thickness and color of the hair, and how much pigment is
in your skin, we will choose the laser that will work best
for you.
Lumenis
Lightsheer XL:
Diodes are recognized to have the optimal depth of
penetration and energy absorption to target hair
follicles. Hair removal with diode lasers generally
requires fewer treatments. They can safely and
effectively treat all but the darkest skin types.
Sciton
Forever Bare BBL:
The medical-grade BBL
(Broad Band Light) provides integrated cooling
during the treatment that allows us to set
aggressive parameters to seek out hair while keeping
the epidermis safe. It’s more comfortable than most
lasers and can effectively treat hair that would be
missed by other lasers. It is the gold standard for
seeing pigment which allows the BBL to target finer
hair and a lighter colour of hair than any other
technology. It is suitable for lighter skin types.
The computer generated scanning sets this
YAG laser apart from the rest. Unlike other
YAG laser treatments which hurt, this
treatment is completely pain-free. It is
ideal for people from the Middle East and
other dark skin types because the wavelength
penetrates deeply into the skin to target
the deepest hair follicles while by-passing
the natural pigment in the skin.
Can I get laser hair removal
if I have blond hair? The answer is YES!
We have the technology in our
clinic to remove hair on any skin type, Fair, Medium, and
Dark, as one laser cannot treat everyone.
For light hair we use BBL. It can see a lighter colour of
hair and finer hair than other technologies. As long as
there is pigment in the hair BBL will be able to see it.
With BBL we can remove even the fine hairs that are left
behind by other lasers.
Can my hair be treated if I
have a dark skin type? Again, the answer is YES!
To remove hair from the darkest
of skin we use our Sciton Clear Scan YAG scanner.
How many Treatments do I need?
Treatments for various conditions
are typically packaged in groups of 6 for best results.
Laser hair removal treatments are done at 6-8 week intervals
on the body and 4-6 week intervals on the face. Individual
recommendations will be made for each client. Results may
vary from person to person. In order to
obtain the best results it is important to avoid tanning
before and after treatments. Before and after care
