Home Laser Hair Removal devices (Silk'n and Tria) Versus professional Laser Hair Removal treatments


In the United States are removing hair permanently by using a laser, the fastest growing non-surgical aesthetic laser cosmetic procedure. Number of performed laser hair removal sessions are expected to grow 18 percent per year. This means that an estimated 6, 000, 000 laser hair removal procedures performed in 2010!

Traditionally, the removal of hair beauty reasons most popular among women-almost all women over 12 years old engage in practice in some way, shape or form. Laser hair removal for men, however, is growing rapidly in popularity. More and more men seek permanent hair removal solutions-at the neck, to solve problems of ingrown hairs, and on the chest, back and shoulders, mainly for cosmetic purposes.

With the size of the consumer market for permanent hair removal treatments are growing at a fast pace, recently, we have seen new technologies to help shoulder the load of the consumer market. In this article, I will discuss two handheld devices and give points of comparison with regard to professional medical lasers. But, first, let us discuss how laser hair removal works.

Laser hair removal works by means of laser energy, targeting melanin in your hair damage your hair follicles. When damaged hair follicles will no longer produce new hair. After a series of treatments follicle-stimulating basically die and cannot grow hair.

In the past, has the ideal candidates for laser hair removal light skin and thick dark hair. But laser technology has evolved, and now, darker skinned and tan people can also see amazing results (using a Nd: YAG laser).

A series of treatments are necessary for an effective treatment because the laser is only effective when it affects follicle-stimulating in its growth phase. In the growth phase of hair growth cycle, follicle-stimulating, most melanin, which is necessary for laser light to target. Since each hair can be in different growth phase at any given time, several treatments are required to ensure you are processing framework all the hairs in the right growth stage.

Let us move on to the cost of laser hair removal treatments.

The price for a laser hair removal treatment depends on many factors, including the region where laser center is located and the size of the area being treated.

If you live in New York, and have your appointments at Assara Laser, you can make an unlimited full body Laser Hair Removal for $ 449 per month. This means that you can laser each body part you want for $ 449 per month-from your sideburns, upper lip, arms, back, bikini, bum, ben. An average client is treated when every 4-5 weeks for six meetings, so under this program is the cost of six sessions in the whole body treatments around $ 2,700, paid 6 installments of $ 449.

How laser hair removal the sensor?

People always want to know how much pain involved in laser hair removal. There is some pain involved. Laser zap feels a snap on your skin, but a handheld cooled air jet linked to laser helps cool your skin and reduce discomfort.

Genes coming from the light energy from the laser is converted to heat energy when the laser light is absorbed by melanin in your hair follicle-stimulating. An experienced laser practitioners should therefore keep the energy level Laser high enough to create enough heat to damage and disable the hair follicle-stimulating but low enough so there is no damage to the surrounding skin.

Now that we are armed with these tidbits of knowledge. Let us compare the home laser hair removal systems with medical laser systems are used in laser centers, Medispas.

Price is on the date of this article, the Tria price point $ 595. It is a little more than the price of a full body session under program unlimited, I mentioned earlier.

Light-source/wavelength-Tria uses a diode laser and Silk'n uses intense pulse light IPL flash light to work. For light skin, Alexandrite (or Alex) the laser is generally the idea is most efficient wavelength for laser hair removal purposes. IPLs are generally regarded as an antiquated system compared to lasers. They are commonly thought of as less efficient and more likely to cause damage because the light emitted from the flash bulb is not focused so that it is more likely that disperse in the client's skin before they reached the melanin rich hair follicle-stimulating blub.

The biggest disadvantage of laser hair removal home units with respect to the light source is that neither the Tria laser diode or Silk'n's IPL system is suitable for tan or dark skin; most practitioners will recommend the use of Nd: YAG laser for skin with pigment.

Fluence,/energy level--fluence, (or energy level) is another important factor in laser power and efficiency for permanent hair reduction. Fluence, is measured in joules per square centimeter (J/cm²). Tria has an adjustable fluence, level between 7 and 20 joules. Silk'n has a fluence, level of 5 joules. As previously discussed, the energy level is sufficient to cause permanent damage to the hair follicle-stimulating so turned off forever from growing hair.

True medical lasers used for laser hair removal, Cynosure Apogee Elite (Alexandrite and Nd: YAG) has maximum fluence, levels selectable by laser practitioner of between 50 and 80 joules. An experienced laser practitioners will usually choose an energy level of between 25 and 60 joule for an effective treatment. The practitioner must be careful not give too little energy, which weakens the effectiveness of the treatment, and also must be careful not to give too much energy, which can damage the surrounding skin.

So there you have it; The handhelds are a little cheaper than a single full-body professional laser hair removal treatment. They are not relevant to tan or dark skin, and their energy levels are much lower than what is commonly used by medical professionals. Because these products are still new, only time will tell how effective they are.
