Hair Removal
The popularity of long term hair removal is, to say the least, on the rise. Having said that, it's important that the technology you use offers effective results to a broad range of patients with diverse skin types.
Lasers and light sources use the principle of selective photothermolysis to eliminate hair and its potential regrowth without damaging the surrounding skin. During a treatment, light passes through the skin and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft. This absorption raises the temperature of the hair follicle and thermally destroys the cells responsible for regrowth. The attributes of the light (wavelength, pulse duration and power) are chosen to ensure damage to these cells and not the rest of the skin.
Both the Soprano and HarmonyT provide physicians with safe and effective methods of delivering to their patients predictable, reliable and reproducible photoepilation results, including:
- Effecting stable long-term or permanent hair reduction.
- Use on all skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI), including tanned skin.
- The ability to treat nearly any hair color, from blond to black, as well as most terminal hair textures, from coarse to fine.
- The ability to treat hairs on all parts of the body including anywhere on the face, the bikini line, legs, underarms or a man's back.
- Causing minimal patient discomfort or side effects.
Although very different technologies, both systems provide the wavelengths, fluences and pulse widths necessary to produce safe and effective photoeilation results for any practice. Both systems are compact, portable and easy to use.
HarmonyT is a multi-application system. For practices that wish to start with multiple applications, or intend to upgrade the system as their practice grows, the system would not be used full-time for any one application.
For practices that have developed or wish to develop a high-volume hair removal practice, the Soprano delivers gold-standard performance and proven reliability. It also has integrated cooling for added safety and patient comfort.
