Innovative Technology of 4-Wavelength Diode Laser Devices for Permanent Hair Removal
Smooth, hair-free skin is now considered the ultimate beauty ideal. For this reason, the demand for permanent hair removal treatments is high. Expanding the offerings of your beauty studio has never been more worthwhile. Especially when you opt for one of the best methods for permanent hair removal: 4-wavelength diode laser devices. They represent the latest generation of laser hair removal and, like their predecessors, offer painless, effective treatments— with one essential difference: Instead of one or three wavelengths, 4-wavelength diode lasers use four wavelengths simultaneously to effectively treat every hair and skin type. This ensures even better results, even with difficult-to-treat hair. Therefore, you can meet the desire for permanent hair freedom of every customer—regardless of their hair and skin type (I-VI according to Fitzpatrick)!
Achieving Hair Freedom with Laser Energy
Like other hair removal laser devices, 4-wavelength diode lasers deliver laser beams through a handpiece into the skin. This energy is then absorbed by the melanin in the hair and directed to the hair follicle, where hair is formed. The laser energy heats this area, deactivates it, causing the hair to fall out and not regrow. An integrated contact cooling system in the handpiece of the 4-wavelength diode laser keeps the skin temperature low during treatment, making the process as painless and comfortable as possible.
But how does this process relate to the customer's hair type? The thickness and color of the hair being treated affect how well the laser energy is directed into the hair follicle. The thinner and lighter the hair, the lower its melanin content, which transports the energy. For this reason, devices have been developed for different circumstances that use different wavelengths to treat the respective hair and skin type. However, this limitation does not apply when using a 4-wavelength diode laser. Its advanced laser technology uses four wavelengths simultaneously, allowing for the problem-free treatment of every customer.
Always the Right Wavelength with 4 Wavelengths
The various characteristics of body hair not only relate to the customer's hair and skin type but also to the area where the hair grows. For example, hair on the arms and legs is not as thick and deeply rooted as hair in the armpits and the intimate area. Such factors must also be considered to use the appropriate laser. With 4-wavelength diode laser devices, you do not face this problem, as they combine four wavelengths from different types of lasers into one handpiece and apply them simultaneously:
- 755 nm Wavelength (Alexandrite Laser): This wavelength is ideal for more superficial hair, such as in the eyebrow and upper lip areas. It also works best for fine, light hair from blonde to light brown.
- 808 nm Wavelength (Diode Laser): This wavelength is best for areas with thicker hair, such as the arms and legs. It is also frequently used for darker skin types.
- 940 nm Wavelength (Diode Laser): The 940 nm wavelength provides additional thermal effects and is particularly effective for dark hair and skin types.
- 1064 nm Wavelength (Nd
Laser): This wavelength is used for very dark and thick hair. It is ideal for treating deeply rooted hair in the armpits and intimate areas.
User-Friendly and Intuitive
The devices are operated via large, colorful touch screens that allow you to adjust treatment parameters to meet your customers' needs individually. You do not need to choose between wavelengths, as the devices use all of them simultaneously. However, you can adjust parameters such as laser energy strength, frequency, and pulse duration. Thanks to the intuitive user interface, you can make these adjustments quickly and easily.
