Laser Hair Removal
Currently hair can be safely and effectively removed by two
systems i.e., laser or intense pulsed light.
Until now the only options for removing unwanted hair were smelly
hair removal creams, sharp razors, stinging wax or painful
electrolysis needles. The advanced approach to beautiful skin
provides the ultimate solution. Now, men and women alike will be
pleased with the results made possible by the Laser or IPL Hair
Removal process.

Removal of unwanted hair is one of the most quested cosmetic
procedures worldwide. The significant advantage of using the
MedliteTM C6 is that you will find your patients
returning for their regular follow-up visits because this
treatment is safe, effective, fast and comfortable.
“I couldn’t believe it was so easy and so
painless.” MedliteTM Patient
The 1064 nm of the MedliteTM C6 is the wavelength
of choice because it can penetrate deeply enough to damage the
hair bulb with minimal risk of hyper- or hypopigmentation, and
other side effects on patients with darker skin types
(Fitzpatrick Type VI), and tanned skin. The risk of pigment
changes, blisters and burns is not an issue with the MedliteTM
C6 because the the hair removal action is photomechanical rather
than photothermal. Because there is no heat transmitted to the
surrounding skin areas, the treatment is comfortable, and no
additional costly and cumbersome cooling devices are needed.
Studies with the MedliteTM C6 have shown significant
delay in hair regrowth following several treatments.
What is the Laser Hair
Removal process?
Laser Hair Removal uses a low-energy laser to gently remove
unwanted hair, putting an end to routine shaving and waxing. This
advanced technology transcends the older, painful hair removal
treatments to deliver long-lasting results. Because the laser treats
more than one hair at a time, it is possible to treat larger areas
such as the back, shoulders, arms, legs and face. Laser treatments
leave your skin looking and feeling smoother and silkier. Best of
all, Laser Hair Removal treatments are a safe, fast, gentle, and
effective alternative method for hair removal.
What are the benefits
of Laser Hair Removal?
* Larger areas may be treated using lasers than with
electrolysis, waxing or tweezing.
* It combines the speed of shaving with the lasting results
promised by electrolysis.
* Laser Hair Removal is effective on almost any area of the body
where smoother, younger, hair-free skin is desired.
How many treatments
will I need?
The number of treatments you may require for optimal long-term
benefits depends on the area you wish to have treated, the hair
density and your hair's growth cycle. Your hair grows in cycles and
many factors influence it's growth. Age, ethnicity, weight,
hormones, diet, medication and metabolism all play a part in your
hair's location, thickness and resilience.
The laser slows the growing capacity of follicles in the growth
cycle at the time of the treatment. Since some hair follicles may
enter their growth cycle after your treatment, multiple treatments
may be required to deliver optimal results. Treatment results will
vary from patient to patient depending on skin and hair color.
Note: Removing hair does not make it grow back thicker, darker or
quicker. The opposite is usually the case. The laser may cause hair
to come back slower and thinner.
How is Laser Hair
Removal different from electrolysis?
Electrolysis is a
much slower process. With electrolysis a needle is actually inserted
into each hair follicle, one at a time. Once inserted, an electric
shock burns the follicle to retard hair growth. Laser Hair Removal
uses the cool light of the laser to scan the treatment area and
within minutes all of the hairs in the laser's beam are treated.
Most patients who have had both procedures say the Laser Hair
Removal is less painful, faster and more convenient.
What are the laser
treatments like?
Laser Hair Removal is a gentle three-step process, First, we
gently cleanse the area to be treated. Next, we shave the area. Then
the area is scanned with the laser. The laser energy passes through
the skin and is absorbed by the pigment is the hair follicle. In a
fraction of a second, all of the treated hair follicles are
disabled.
Treatments can last from a few minutes to a few hours depending
on the size of the area being treated.

physiological process.
Spectral Wavelength
The Laser Hair Removal System broad spectrum. The wavelength is
adjusted to hair and skin color.
How the Laser Works
Before Treatment, the wavelength is adjusted based on the
melanin content of the targeted hair and surrounding skin. The
intense pulsed light precisely targets the hair follicle without
damaging
the epidermis.
During Treatment the laser's intense pulsed light elevates the
temperature of the hair, which, in turn, conducts heat to the
follicle. This causes damage to the germinative cells responsible
for growth.
After Treatment, the damaged hair and follicle are eliminated by a
natural physiologic process, resulting in long-term depilation.
Now there is a better solution for unwanted hair

entire body is covered with hair is fine and pale, it usually isn't
visible to the naked eye. In fact, you may be surprised to know that

When darker, coarser hair appears in places we don't like or expect
- like on the face, neck, abdomen, breasts, or arms - or prevents us
from wearing a high-cut bathing suit, shorts, or even a short skirt,
it may be time to consider hair removal.
