Laser depilation

The laser emits a monochromatic light beam (with 3 wavelengths: 755nm, 808nm, 1064nm), focused (no dispersion), unidirectional, which deeply and easily penetrates the skin.

• 755nm - for the widest range of hair types and colors. This wavelength provides stronger energy absorption by the melanin chromophore, making it ideal for the widest range of hair types and colors - especially light and thin hair,
• 808nm - the classic wavelength in laser hair removal that provides deep penetration of hair follicles with high to medium power and high frequency. Scientific evidence shows that at 808 nanometer wavelength, the energy produced by the laser is selectively captured by the melanin found in the hair follicle.
• 1064nm - a wavelength ideal for darker skin types and dark, deep-seated hair. This wavelength primarily acts on hemoglobin, destroying the blood vessels that nourish hair follicles.

The laser light is converted into thermal energy (heat) and is selectively absorbed by the melanin found in the hair follicle. The strong heat reaction damages the bulb while leaving the surrounding tissues intact.This mechanism is known as selective photothermolysis.

The diode laser is effective for both body and facial hair removal treatments. It can be used for all skin types, all phototypes (from 1 to 6), on all types of hair, except for gray hair (completely devoid of melanin). As with any type of epilation, hair in the ANAGEN phase (growth phase) is completely removed. Effect of selective photothermolysis.

• pregnancy,
• breastfeeding.
• Active bacterial, fungal and viral infections (e.g. herpes),
• vitiligo,
• psoriasis, fish scales,
• use of photosensitizing drugs and herbs (e.g., St. John's wort, calendula, weight loss teas),
• antibiotic therapy,
• hair removal with wax, depilator or tweezers,
• pacemaker,
• oral retinoid therapy (e.g. Roaccutane, Isotec) - wait 6 months after the end of therapy,
• use of creams or ointments with vitamin A, retinoids, vitamin C and fruit acids requires a 4 week break before the first treatment,
• susceptibility to hyperpigmentation,
• diabetes (uncompensated),
• epilepsy,
• blood clotting disorders, use of medications that reduce blood clotting,
• cancerous and pre-cancerous pigmented lesions on the skin,
• neoplasms and tumors,
• X-rays one week before treatment,
• use of betacarotene orally,
• use of preparations such as Etiaxil, Antidrial (applies to underarms),
• irritated skin,
• autoimmune diseases,
• silicone or lifting thread fillings in the epilated area,
• chloasma,
• fresh scars (red or pink),
• accumulation of multiple pigmented lesions in the epilation area.

The day before, the area of skin to be depilated should be shaved thoroughly with a disposable razor (watch out for irritation, skin cuts). The skin should be well moisturized, but on the day of the treatment do not use creams, body lotions, antiperspirants, perfumes.
