Laser Hair Removal With Mediostar at Silk Laser Studio
Velvety, silky skin. Immaculate, smooth – and hairless. An everlasting ideal of beauty that has been producing a wide variety of epilation methods for centuries. Yet none of them has ever shown long-term results. Only light can reduce hair growth permanently. As Asclepion Laser Technologies’ modern MeDioStar laser systems are specially designed for epilation, they can epilate large areas such as the back or the legs quickly and without skin irritation.
How it works: It requires only one short and virtually painless treatment session. For a back it does take less than 10 minutes. It is important to shave the targeted area beforehand. Permanent hair reduction, however, cannot be achieved after one treatment. The amount of treatment sessions required for complete permanent epilation depends on the area to be epilated and the individual skin type. On average, successful treatment requires between six and eight sessions at two to eight-week intervals. But the effort pays off: numerous clinical studies prove that once successfully removed, laser epilated hair will re-grow only very slowly and will be very thin. In order to remove this re-growth successfully, it is generally sufficient to repeat a single session once a year.
What it does: Light penetrates the skin, is absorbed by melanin and converted into heat. This heat destroys hair roots as well as the so-called torus. The surrounding skin remains unaffected. Photo-epilation is only effective when hair is in its growth phase. Unfortunately, not all hair grows at the same time. In order to remove hair permanently and across larger areas, treatment has to be repeated. Hair reacts differently to light: People with dark hair – and a lot of melanin – experience best results. The removal of very fair hair requires individual assessment of the potential success of laser treatment.
How Laser Hair Removal Works
While treating hair, the energy radiated by the powerful diode laser is utilized to prevent the regrowth of the hair. To do this, the light needs to enter a few millimeters into the skin to reach the base of the hair. When it meets the melanin in the hair (darker shading), the light is absorbed, i.e. it is changed over into heat. The darker, thicker and denser the hair, the more heat is created. This heat harms the cells in charge of hair regrowth inside the hair and in the region around the hair. This guarantees an extreme diminishment in hair in the treated area.
Cutting Edge Light Based Treatments with Mediostar
The High Power Diode Lasers of the MeDioStar NeXT Family, represent the best technology for permanent hair reduction treatments. The wavelengths of the MeDioStar NeXT devices were picked so that the absorbtion of the light is high in melanin, yet low in water (essential substance in the skin), hence accommodating an exceptionally particular and safe treatment, with generally few side effects.
Furthermore, an additional treatment mode (SmoothPulse) can be utilized for bigger regions, which influences the laser pulse sensation to be practically unnoticeable, even for sensitive skinned patients. Because of the advanced design of the MeDioStar NeXT lasers, side effects of more than slight redness and swelling around dim hair are extremely uncommon.
