US FDA approved 810 nm Stamping mode technology for Permanent hair removal/reduction for all skin types. The Gold Standard for hair removal with an unsurpassed library of clinical documented success
A diode laser uses semiconductor technology that produces coherent projection of light in the visible to infrared range. It uses a light beam with a narrow spectrum to target specific chromophores in the skin. Diode Laser Technology is generally used for Hair Reduction/Removal
Diode lasers acts on principal of “selective photothermolysis”. Among diode lasers 810 nm wavelength are selectively absorb by melanin chromophore and proved better treatment option than any other laser hair removal lasers as it require lesser sessions, less painful, and more effective and it penetrates deeper causing selective destruction of the underlying pigmented hair follicles
1.What are the advantages of Diode laser hair removal?
The Diode laser has a longer wavelength and thus able to provide better results among dark-skinned people. This laser provides safer and deeper penetration into the skin layer.Large areas of the body tend to recover faster.
2.What are the side effects of Diode laser hair removal?
There may be some very rarely scars, burns, skin discoloration, redness, and swelling.
3.What are the different types Diode Laser Devices available?
The popular diode laser devices that are available in today’s markets are as follows.SLP 100, F1 Diode, MeDioStar, Light Sheer, MilesMan, LaserLite,and Soprano Diode.
We at Clear Skin Centre use Milesman & Soprano ICE USFDA approved device.
What are the specifications of the Diode Laser?
- Wavelength: 810 nm
- Spot size: 10mm
- Fluence: 10-40
- Pulse width: 5-30 ms
- Repetition rate: 1-10 Hz
Summary
The Diode laser is safe and efficient for hair reduction or removal. There may be some adverse pigment effects, but these are transient. The Diode laser is the best overall laser for all six skin types based on long term use and safety and is especially effective in people with skin types 1 to 6
Pros and cons of the Diode Laser Hair Removal Procedure:
Pros
- Permanent hair reduction: cannot claim to achieve permanent hair removal with laser, it definitely can achieve permanent hair reduction, to an extent where you can stop shaving completely.
- Any area: Diode laser can be used to remove hair over any area of the body except for the sensitive area around the eyes. Common areas are underarms, bikini line, legs, back, upper lip, chin etc.,
- Fewer ingrown hair: diode laser also eliminates the risk of stubborn ingrowth of hair.
- Dynamic: Diode laser is suitable for almost all skin types including type VI, and can be altered depending upon the skin type and texture, hair colour, hair thickness and other factors. Diode laser works best for individuals with fair skin and dark hair colour.
- Fast and effective: In the busy today’s world where time saved is time earned. Hair removal via diode laser allows you to earn all the time that you’d otherwise spend on waxing and shaving all your life, by permanently ridding you of undesirable hair.
Cons
- Expensive: Diode laser is not affordable treatment for all, but for who can afford its sure gives you money’s worth
- Less effective in few cases: It may not be suitable for certain areas of the body and hair types.
- After which effect: Diode laser has a narrow safety margin. So rarely, it can leave patches of pigmentation on the skin by damaging the pigment cells in skin. Moreover, in extremely rare cases it could also leave burns or scars on the
