FAQ Alexandrite Laser Treatment
Lasers are more effective than photoepilation because they emit a targeted beam that affects melanin and is many times stronger than the light from photoepilation devices.
Devices that emit intense pulsed light (IPL) emit a beam of rays and therefore do not act directly on their target - the hair and the melanin in the hair do not absorb the light as well. Due to the low power of the photoepilation device, the hair follicle is not destroyed. There is also a greater risk of side effects due to the broader spectrum of radiation from IPL devices.
Yes. Manufacturers have tried to create a cheaper device, but it has not been able to match the effectiveness of lasers.
No. With the new generation of lasers, the treatments can be carried out much more quickly.
This depends on the proportion of the pigment melanin in the hair. The Alexandrite laser is the most powerful hair removal laser available, it is many times more powerful than ordinary lasers. Therefore, among all lasers, it is the best to remove light-colored hair with it.
When it comes to permanent hair removal with the alexandrite laser, everyone Laser pulse, a slight tingling, possibly a tingling sensation and a feeling of warmth can be felt. However, this hair removal laser is the only one that has an integrated, specially developed DCD cooling system. This makes the treatment pleasant for you, because your skin is cooled with a cold shock during the treatment and after the laser pulse. In this way, impulses with higher energy can be carried out more painlessly and the best result is achieved for you. Thanks to these properties of the Alexandrite Laser GentleLase Pro, no direct cooling or an anesthetic gel is necessary, as is the case with other lasers.
Shaving and plucking hair, depilation with sugar or wax and depilatory creams only remove hair for a short time. In addition, after such treatments, there are skin problems - hair begins to grow into the skin, rashes appear, after which dark spots remain for a long time. Some rashes lead to a bacterial infection, and scars may remain on the skin.
During permanent hair removal with a laser, only the hair follicle is destroyed, the surrounding tissue is not damaged during the treatment. After the first treatments with the Alexandrite laser GentleLase Pro, hair no longer grows in, rashes and spots disappear, and the complexion improves. The skin becomes healthy and smooth again.
The laser is a medical device that emits light of a specific wavelength and acts directly on its target, ie it destroys the hair follicle and the surrounding cells that make up the hair. Thus, a long-term depilation is effected. Lasers are significantly more powerful than photoepilation devices, IPL devices (intense pulsed light), therefore more efficient results can be achieved with lasers.
Because lasers only emit light of a specific wavelength, they are designed to remove a specific "skin problem," such as hair removal.
Devices that emit intense pulsed light (IPL) emit a beam of rays and therefore do not act directly on their target - the hair and the melanin in the hair do not absorb the light as well. Due to the low power of the photoepilation device, the hair follicle is not destroyed. There is also a greater risk of side effects due to the broader spectrum of radiation from IPL devices.
