In
response to the ever-increasing demand to remove unwanted
hair on virtually any body area, the ability to offer superior
results to the widest variety of patients is crucial. The
LightSheer Diode Laser System (FDA approved)
delivers on the promise and has become the most popular
laser hair removal device worldwide for men and women.
This method provides an non- invasive, effective and efficient
method of hair removal.
The
LightSheer system was designed from the ground up for
effective hair removal, providing unsurpassed safety and
efficacy, reliability, and ease-of-use. Its advanced high-power
diode technology delivers high fluence combined with a
large spot size, user-selected pulse width, aggressive
contact cooling and compression for high-performance unmatched
by other high-tech hair removal systems. Both in rigorous
scientific trials as well as extensive clinical practice,
LightSheer system has emerged as the gold standard in
laser hair removal.
Q:
How does the LightSheer Diode Laser System work?
A:
The system emits a near-infrared laser light that is absorbed
by the pigment located in the hair follicle. The laser
is pulsed, or turned on, for only a fraction of a second.
The duration of each pulse is just long enough to damage
the follicle, while the system's unique, patented contact-cooling
handpiece, the ChillTip, helps protect the skin by conductive
cooling during the laser energy delivery.
Q:
Why should I have the LightSheer Diode Laser System rather
than the other methods of hair removal?
A:
The LightSheer Diode Laser System's design provides for
enhanced comfort during treatment, minimal risk of infection,
speed and accuracy. Since the system uses a unique cooling
handpiece, it minimizes skin irritation that other methods
may create. Since it is non-invasive (no needles to penetrate
the skin), the risk of introducing bacteria into the skin
is reduced. Because the system is fast, it allows for
larger areas to be treated, considerably increasing the
efficiency of the hair removal process. The LightSheer
Diode Laser is a precise instrument that can be adjusted
to damage only the hair follicle while minimally affecting
the surrounding skin.
Q.
Does the LightSheer work on tanned or different skin colors?
A:
The LightSheer diode laser system safely treats all skin
types as well as tanned skin. The LightSheer system is
designed to be safe and effective for all skin types.
For darker skin types and people with tans, appropriate
fluences are generally lower and appropriate pulse widths
are generally longer to prevent damage to the epidermis.
Using the appropriate treatment parameters, however, people
with all skin types can benefit from laser hair removal
with the LightSheer.
