Hair Removal Methods
The idea of having silky, smooth and hairless skin has resulted in people demanding better hair removal techniques than a standard razor. Hair can be removed in all areas, not just traditional areas such as the underarms and legs (for women) and the face (for men).
For those looking at ways to get rid of hair and have a smooth, hair-free and younger skin, there are a number of methods available. These methods include laser hair removal, ipl hair removal, electrolysis, waxing and even sprays.
Laser hair removal is the best option if you want to get rid of hair permanently and quickly. Hair is removed with very little discomfort. This technique is considered the gold standard for permanent hair removal, especially for patients of darker skin type. patients are benefiting from this technology which produces highly desirable results with little to no discomfort or risks. Amongst the numerous laser hair removal systems, the Sciton brand is a very well-known laser, trusted by leading physicians worldwide.
The Sciton Clear Scan Laser
The unique point about this machine compared to older systems is that all its operations are fully computer controlled. The computer formulates the exact length and wavelengths for use in the treatment starting from the moment your skin is scanned.
This is based exclusively on the patient’s hair thickness and skin type. The use of the computer scanner enables more accuracy than the older systems. Carefully timed laser pulses removes hair faster with minimal discomfort on the patient.
The scanner is designed to randomly target different parts of the skin to avoid heat build-up between energy pulses. What this means to you is that there is increased safety, comfort without compromising on effectiveness. in an addition, the water-cooled sapphire plate helps to protect skin one step further. In the hands of an experienced doctor, this means much faster hair reduction in a safe comfortable manner.
The BBL System
BBL stands for broadband light, using multiple wavelengths to treat skin hair. This enables it to target the hair’s root very effectively. The melanin absorbs the light energy, destroying the hair bulb. Bbl works very well for fair skin with dark hairs, but not so well for darker skin types with dense hair. Bbl is a more economical method for hair removal compared with the sciton clear scan.
All body parts can be treated, including underarm hair removal, leg hair removal, facial hair removal, and back and upper lip hair removal.
The multiple wavelengths applied in the system enables it to be used for other benefits other than hair removal treatments, including pigmentation reduction, pore refinement, general skin rejuvenation, acne, rosacea and scars reduction.
