    Laser Hair Removal: What Makes A Good Machine?

    The answer to this question has been part of plenty of debates in the cosmetic and aesthetic industry. Choosing the right laser hair removal machine can make all the difference. If the aim is achieving safe, effective, and long-lasting results that is. With a wide range of devices available, understanding the key features that set a high-quality machine apart is important.

    Whether you’re a clinic owner or a consumer seeking treatment, factors like wavelength, skin compatibility, cooling systems, and treatment speed are critical. So we will explore what makes a good laser hair removal machine and highlighting what to look for to ensure the best results.

    1. How effective is it?

    • Is the laser efficiently removing all hair? If not, then the technology is void
    • Effectiveness can also be reduced if the person who conducts the treatment is not well trained

    2. Is it painful?

    • There is something we can all agree on. Nobody likes pain. Although some sort of discomfort is expected when hair is removed from sensitive areas, if the laser you’re using is not the best quality, your pain could increase
    • The most popular laser hair removal is the one that uses a cooling mechanism that allows the skin to cool down when sensitive areas are treated
    • The Soprano ICE is one example of technology that uses a cooling mechanism. It offers 3 wavelengths in order to reduce discomfort.

    3. Skin colour

    • Some laser hair removal machines can experience some difficulty when it comes to detecting hair follicles at their growth stage when the skin is dark or fair and it matches the hair.
    • There are plenty of clinics that offer more than one technology in order to deal with a variety of skin types.

    4. Number of sessions required

    • This is a difficult factor to take into consideration as it all depends on the person treated. Someone who has little hair will require fewer sessions than someone with more hair.
    • In general, great results will be reached between 6 to 12 sessions

    These companies offer a range of devices with different technologies, including diode, Alexandrite, and Nd:YAG lasers, as well as IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) devices. Each device has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the best choice for a particular individual will depend on factors such as hair color, skin type, and desired treatment area.

    Overall, it is not very easy to decide which is the best laser hair removal technology because it all depends on the individual who undergoes this process, as other factors need to be taken into consideration such as skin colour and the amount of hair you want to remove.

      being a fan laser hair removal i found this blog very interesting, i didn’t realise there was such differences with the machines.

      Thanks Jamie, the machines can really affect the end result as the newest technologies tend to be more powerful and effective for a range of skin types.

      I’ve been browsing on-line more than 3 hours lately, yet I had not discovered any better article than yours.
      It is very informative for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content material as you probably did, the internet would be much more helpful.

      The laser is really effective.
      Have been suffering from years from facial hair and with 9 sessions I am now hair free!

    5. Yasmina on 4 March 2019 12:35 pm

      As a result of their hard work, all these companies machines have greatly evolved over the years. It used to be so difficult to remove hair before, but now with some of the machines like soprano ice, permanenent laser hair removal is possible.
