What is
Diode Laser Epilation?
Diode Laser
Epilation
is a clinically proven,
progressively
 permanent
hair removal procedure from
which a high-power laser beam
is sent deep into the skin,
where hair growth starts. The
photon energy
(laser
radiation) vaporizes and
destroys the hair follicle in
a fraction of a second for a
lifelong solution to
embarrassing unwanted hair
growth of the face and body.
What is
Pulsed Light
or IPL Epilation?
Intense Pulsed Light
works similar to lasers for
cosmetic procedures
but uses a powerful flash lamp
rather than a semiconductor
diode combined with precision optics
to deliver the photon
energy to the tissues.
It too is a progressively
permanent treatment.
Is
Laser or Pulsed Light Epilation
Dangerous?
No, the amount of laser or
light energy used is minimal and
poses little hazard to
the skin. It is mechanically
safe and controlled at every
stage of the application,
however, African peoples (skin
pigment rated on the
Fitzpatrick Scale as type 5 to
6) should avoid
exposure to diode laser and
pulsed light radiation.
How many treatments will it take?
Many unwanted hair follicles
will not survive t he
first treatment session,
however, most will require
from four to six treatments
over the span of 6-12 weeks.
Stubborn hair growth (such as
a man's beard) may need 8 or
more applications over 90 days
to achieve progressive
permanency.
Is
it
painful?
In most cases (and most areas of the body)
no.
It generally feels like a mild
'pinch'
which lasts only a small
fraction of a second.
Should a client have a high
degree of sensitivity to the
treatment, adjustments can be
made to the machine which will
reduce this sensation.
The use of a topical lidocaine
gel of at least 2.5%
concentration before and
during the treatment increases
patient comfort dramatically.
Is Laser or Pulsed Light Epilation right for me?
It's for anyone rated
1-4 on the Fitzpatrick Scale
(most people fall into this
category) who feel they
deserve the satisfaction
only a flawless, hair-free
complexion can give.
Feeling good about yourself is
very important.
Laser and Pulsed Light hair removal is well worth the few hours investment and expense when you compare it to the hassle of daily plucking and other temporary hair removal methods.
Which System is Best, Laser or
Pulsed Light?
The results achieved by
Laser and IPL epilation
devices are generally considered
interchangeable (about equal)
for men and women.
Each procedure has distinct
advantages. Laser
Epilation, for example, can
'shave' the skin
while simultaneously
treating the follicle below.
Intense Pulsed Light on the other hand, has the ability to treat large areas in less time (due to
exponential increase in
total energy being used) but
cannot 'shave' like the
laser. In terms of 'progressive permanency', they both
can produce an 80 to 90% reduction in anagen hair growth activity within 90 days. Treatments should not be administered more than once per 10
day period (or three times a month).
Can I use these
machines
easily or do they require
training?
The uncomplicated design
of Biotechnique Avance
Systems and Equipment makes them very easy to use, even to novices
for 'at home' treatments and
professionals who demand the
highest level of performance
in their clinics. No advanced training is required. The
equipment line
was specifically designed to
match the skill and safety
level of each potential
user, from home-use
customers to beauticians
and Doctors. The CBA mission
statement has always been: Quality,
performance, affordability, and user-friendliness.
With these attributes
we are confident you will not find a better line, or value, for photo-epilation equipment anywhere.
