Laser hair removal, painful or painfree?

Laser hair removal could be the most powerful, cost-effective way to achieve a hair free skin. Though, countless patients were highly satisfied with the results of laser hair treatments, some of them admitted that the procedure can come with discomfort. Thus, many patients who are interested in laser hair removal are hesitant to try the procedure due its “painful” process. However, a lot of us do not know that this is a common misconception. Laser hair removal treatments can be painful or pain-free depending on the device being used. A lot of laser procedures can cause discomfort, but not what with the device used by the Havana Skin Clinic.

Laser Hair Removal at Havana Skin Clinic

At the Havana Skin Clinic, a cutting-edge device is used for their laser hair removal treatment. It’s called LightSheer Duet made by Lumenis that is specially developed to make hair removal treatments pain-free. This device is integrated with state-of-the-art system that encourages a comfortable process for patients.

LightSheer Duet has Vaccum Assisted Technology, which works smartly to reduce the pain in laser hair removal. The slight vacuum delivered by this technology, suppresses the nerve endings that result in significant pain loss. Additionally, the laser does not travel through the nerves, so the patient feels less discomfort. Simultaneously, the Vaccum Assisted Technology pulls out the hair follicles near the laser, meaning the heat of the laser doesn’t need to be aggressive to be effective. Aesthetic experts at the Havana Skin Clinic assure that laser hair removal treatments done with LightSheer Duet are more comfortable, and 75% faster compared with other laser devices. Other than that, LightSheer Duet provides safe procedures with minimal to no skin irritation, and zero downtime.

How Laser Hair Removal Works

Basically, laser hair removal works by destroying the hair follicles with the use of pulses of laser. Laser treatments specifically target dark materials, and deliver heat without affecting the surrounding tissue. The light from the laser will be absorbed by the dark material, causing the death of follicles, and eventually hair loss. This is why it is important that the color of the hair must be darker from the color of the skin for the treatment to be effective.

Choosing LightSheer Duet

LightSheer Duet works uniquely in removing hair. As opposed to other treatments, this device is integrated with a diode laser, meaning the heat travels from the hair shaft to the surface of the skin. This is another reason why LightSheer Duet delivers laser hair treatment with minimal discomfort in sensitive areas, and little to no pain on the legs.

Laser Hair Removal 2017

How did laser hair removal technology
develop through the years?

In the history of hair removal, the humans have been trying to get rid of unwanted hair in some areas. Perhaps long cumbersome locks that would get in the way during a woolly mammoth hunt, the Neanderthal practiced primitive forms of shaving and hair cutting. As of today, several techniques have been introduced such as shaving, threading, waxing, sugaring and the like. These techniques are all effective in removing the unwanted hair in different areas however, they all have their drawbacks. Shaving doesn’t remove hair roots, thus, the need to perform it over and over again, which is not good for the skin. Threading, waxing and sugaring has more lasting effects than shaving, the catch, however, is that all of these techniques are painful and uncomfortable. Plus, too much itching occurs when the hair starts to grow back.

From using abrasive tools, a modern technological method of hair removal was developed: laser hair removal. Laser hair removal is an advanced method in removing hair by targeting the roots of hair beneath the surface of the skin using a laser. In the past, laser hair removal only worked for lighter skin and darker hair, now it also works for darker skin. LightSheer by Lumenis provides long-term hair reduction that is tolerable without topical anesthetic; requires shorter treatment sessions; and works on all skin types.

The Lumenis’ LightSheer® systems (INFINITY™, DESIRE™, DUET™) uses 805nm diode laser technology that has become a well-established method for photoepilation. Treatment can be customized to optimally meet the needs of each patient by tailoring treatment accuracy, efficacy, safety, comfort and speed. Several advancements in the LightSheer system include:

Vacuum Assisted High-Speed Integrated Technology.

A large 22×35 mm spot size enables the use of low-fluence or low flux of radiation/particle stream. With a unique mechanism for pain reduction providing an effective, fast and comfortable treatment; and

ChillTipTM Technology.

Epidermal protection is attained with the integrated contact cooling.

 

Benefits from using LightSheer includes:

• Short treatment time. LightSheer prides its high-speed integrated vacuum assisted technology that allows shorter time for treating large areas of the body added by the absence of prep time and no required cooling or anaesthetics;
• Comfortable treatment. LightSheer uses a unique vacuum mechanism that activates the skin’s tactile and pressure receptors to inhibit transmission of pain. Comfort is improved through the integrated contact cooling of the ChillTipTM technology
• Long lasting results. LightSheer targets the hair roots and destroy them, thus, providing longer time for the hair to grow back. Doing this for four to seven sessions usually means permanently removing the hair. Absence of the hair roots means softer and better-looking skin.

Although there are developments in technology in laser hair removal and through this, several procedures have been more efficient and effective, still, the most important factor in having a beautiful and problem-free treatment is to choose the best and the most trusted therapist and/or skin clinic. With Havana Skin Clinic, your safety is assured. Havana Skin Clinic uses Lumenis equipment to ensure amazing results every time.
