Laser Hair Reduction

bikini hair before laser epilation and after laser epilation

Lasers have been used for many years for a variety of medical cosmetic procedures including treatment of facial and leg veins, age spots and smoothing fine lines on the face. The laser energy is transformed into heat, which can disable the follicle leaving the surrounding skin unchanged.

Why is the Long Pulsed Diode preferred for hair removal? Traditional techniques, such as shaving, plucking and waxing, provide only temporary relief. Laser treatment for hair removal is non-invasive, and safely removes unwanted body hair without damaging the delicate pores and structures of the skin. Facial and bikini areas are usually completed in under 45 minutes; legs and larger areas can take longer.

How many treatments will I need? Hair grows in cycles. Laser epilation is only effective on hair in its active growing cycle. At any one time there will only be certain hairs in that growing phase. This means that consistent treatments at appropriate intervals are absolutely necessary for the best possible results. The number of treatments required depends upon your skin, hair coloring, coarseness of the hair and density per treated area.

Everyone will require at least 2-3 treatments as the process is only effective on hairs during their growing cycle. Additional treatment will be necessary to treat other follicles when they re-enter the growth phase and produce new growth.

Faster Than Regular Electrolysis: The advent of this new technology has created enormous excitement in the field of epilation cosmetology, and with good reason. Laser hair removal is simply the fastest way to remove unwanted hair currently available. It is very easy and highly effective. The laser can completely clear leg hair growth on an average woman in under one hour.

The 'Inside Scoop' on Home-Use Laser Hair Removal

It is no secret that a new boom in the self-care industry is happening with the staggering number of home-use laser epilation systems that are entering the market each month.

Brands such as Tria, Rio, Epila, LaserPro and more are sweeping the internet with exposure. So what is the real story here? Are these home use machines as good as the professional ones that cost thousands of dollars?

No....... and here's why.

Output Power: Insufficient. Did you know that Federal Law requires the manufacturers of laser equipment (medical and non-medical related) to list the classification of the laser, the wavelength and output power in watts (or in the 'toy home use' machines, milliwatts)? Strange that none of the brands listed above do so. Maybe it is because they don't want you to know the real numbers. These brands will come and go, but mostly 'go', because of their labeling violations among other reasons.

What limits their power? A combination of things, but it is mostly the power supply which drives the semiconductor diode (what creates the laser beam). Professional units have high-amperage power supplies which are actually quite big and heavy. It takes a full 30 amps to run a 50 watt laser, even in pulsed mode. That is more than twice what the average household wall socket can provide. Home-use machines use batteries (or meager wall transformers) and produce only 'milliamps' (fractions of a watt). There is no way to cheat electrical science or physics. High powered lasers need high powered driver units.

Limitation Number 2: Optics. A laser must be shaped, focused and directed to be usable. The optics required to do this are quite expensive. Tiny slivers of glass, or in some cases three lens configurations, which cost more by themselves than most of the home-use machines available. These 'toys' do not use optics at all, just a cheap piece of glass to actually 'diffuse', not focus, the laser energy. Why diffuse it? To make it safe for public use. In so doing, they make it worthless for medical use.

Limitation Number 3: Diode. The semiconductor laser diode in professional grade machines of 30 CW or QCW watts or more cost on average $600. The reason for this is the construction material of the semiconductor itself, called gallium arsenide. This element is actually more valuable than gold or platinum per ounce. As a matter of fact, it is one of the most expensive substances on Earth. Home use devices use low wattage diodes with microscopic crystals of the gallium arsenide, which results in 'microscopic' amounts of laser output.

Limitation Number 4: Battery Life. Brands such as Tria are capable of producing a reasonable amount of laser power (although diffused as mentioned). The only problem is the tiny battery in the device is only good for minutes of use before needing recharged. Try using that system when you have large areas to work on. You will be able to do about 100 hairs before a recharge is necessary.

The simple truth of the matter? Home-use devices are designed to be safe and cheap, like a toy for a child. Professional machines are designed to produce results. Laser epilation procedures require a minimum of 32jcm2/sec. to be effective. These new home devices are incapable of producing more than 10jcm2.
