|
Topical Electrolysis Permanent Hair Removal System![]() $49.95 This formula was originally created to improve results achieved from regular electrolysis by adding 10-20 molecular units of sodium hydroxide to the follicle shaft following the primary treatment session. |
Home Use Photo Epilator Hair Removal System![]() $399.95 If you have been searching for the most effective and reliable home laser hair removing machine, you have found it. The DM 2000 is a powerful yet very compact diode epilator system and is extremely easy to use. The market has been flooded with home lasers in the past year, but the DM 2000 is still the one to beat. |
Deluxe Home Use Transcutaneous Electrolysis System![]() $429.95 This unit will perform all Transcutaneous and No-Needle Electrolysis procedures but comes standard with a fully programmable treatment timer. Set the appropriate treatment time, press the start button and relax (which substantially reduces the risk of over treatment). |
Highly-Effective Non Invasive Hair Removal![]() $499.95 Cost Effective Home-Use-System: This system is outstanding for the small salon or home user. Now the technician can treat a full 2 inch wide area effortlessly and effectively. This convenient package comes with 2 Oz. of each phase of electrophoresis gel. |
Monopolar Radio Frequency Dermal Tightening Device![]() $1999.95 With Radio frequency, called diathermy (deep heating) this system provides the treatment by generating the heat from inside the human body. Electric energy input --- Transformation into biological energy --- Deep heat generated --- Natural healing and resistant force increased. |
Ultra High Output Intense Pulsed Light System![]() $3799.95 The IPL800 produces an industry leading 220Jcm2 energy density at 100-800nm with a pulse duration of 0.1 seconds. Pulse frequency is user-adjustable from 1-7 emissions per second. This system is excellent for general dermatology procedures, age spot removal, wrinkle reduction, laser resurfacing, IPL Hair Removal and more. May be used for tattoo removal on most inks. |

For laser hair removal different types of laser equipment is available. The choice of particular laser hair removal equipment and the selection of appropriate parameters to achieve best laser hair removal results should be individualized according to the patient needs. Here is a brief discussion about the various types of laser hair removal equipment currently available;
Alexandrite laser
The long-pulse alexandrite laser has the ability of deep penetration into the
dermis. The resultant heat build-up in the hair shafts disables the hair follicles
in the active growth phase which enables it to achieve effective laser hair
removal.
Specifications
Wavelength: 755
Pulse width: 2-20
Fluence: 10-40
Spot size: 5-10
Repetition rate: 1-5
Devices available
Three different alexandrite lasers are available. These include,
Apogee-40 (Cynosure; Chelmsford, Mass),
EpiTouch Alex (formerly ESC Sharplan, now Lumenis; Santa Clara, Calif)
GentleLASE (Candela; Wayland, Mass)
Disadvantages
Hair removal is short term
Occurrence of side effects in 2% of dark colored patients treated with Alexandrite
lasers.
Diode laser
The diode laser is a very effective device. Laser production is triggered by
small diodes or semiconductors that are arranged together to produce light.
The diode laser has a longer wavelength than other lasers used which may improve treatment results on darker skin types.
Specifications
Wavelength: 800-810
Pulse width: 5-30
Fluence: 10-40
Spot size: 9
Repetition rate: 1
Devices available
Several 800-nm diode lasers have been granted FDA approval. These include;
Apex-800 Iriderm (IRIDEX, Mountain View, Calif)
LaserLite (Diomed; Andover, Mass)
SLP100 (Palomar Medical, Burlington, Mass)
EpiStar (Nidek, Fremont, Calif)
MeDioStar diode laser (Aesculap-Meditec; Jena, Germany) (waiting for FDA approval)
Advantages
Longer wavelength safeguards achievement of good results for darker
skin types.
Deep penetration and targeting of deep hair follicles.
Disadvantages
In some cases after treatment with Diode lasers certain patients developed
urticaria. It is a severe allergic skin reaction similar to hives and can be
managed by anti allergic drug therapy.
Q-Switched Nd: YAG laser
This laser has the ability to deliver two different wave lengths of light.
One is an invisible infrared light used for deeper penetration. This wavelength
is used to get to deeper hair follicles. The other wavelength, a green light,
is employed for treating hair follicles closer to the surface. In both cases,
the Q-switching device emits rapid bursts of laser light to the treatment area.
Specifications
Wavelength: 1064
Pulse width: 10-50
Fluence: 20-100
Spot size: 3-5
Repetition rate: Up to 10 Hz
Advantages
Availability of surface cooling and epidermal protection due to surface cooling
and longer pulse duration of these lasers.
Long-term studies show that these laser systems can achieve a significant delay
in hair regrowth
Nd: YAG 1064 nm system may be best for darkly pigmented patients
Disadvantages
The waxing and carbon lotion application is cumbersome.
No clinical data to support that added benefits are achieved when pretreatment
waxing or carbon suspension is used.
Not proven effective for long-term results.
Devices available
Carbon suspension Q-switched lasers SoftLight (ThermoLase; London,
England)
Q-switched Nd: YAG laser MedLite IV ;( Hoya ConBio, Fremont, Calif)
Long-pulsed Nd: YAG lasers e.g., LaserScope (Depilase; Phoenix, Ariz)
Ruby laser
This laser emits red-colored beam which seeks out the target melanin inside
the hair shafts and adjoining hair follicles. Due to their specific melanin
targeting these are best suited for individuals having light skin and dark hairs.
Specifications
Wavelength: 694
Pulse width: 0.85-3
Fluence: 5-40
Spot size: 3-10
Repetition rate: 0.5-1.2
Devices Available
Three normal-modes, 694-nm ruby lasers are commercially available for
laser hair removal .These include the E2000 (Palomar Medical; Burlington, Mass)
(cleared from FDA), EpiPulse Ruby (formerly
ESC Sharplan, now Light Sheer from Lumenis; Santa Clara, Calif), RubyStar (Aesculap-Meditec;
Jena, Germany)
Advantages
Long term hair removal is achieved.
The E2000 series is equipped with sapphire cooled hand piece Epiwand which serves
as epidermal coolant .Other devices are also equipped with in built cooling
devices which minimize the chances of burns and other laser hair removal side
effects.
