Understanding Laser Hair Removal Technology
How Laser Hair Removal Works
Laser hair removal works on the principle of selective photothermolysis, where specific wavelengths of light target melanin in the hair follicles. The light energy is converted into heat, destroying the hair follicles and inhibiting future hair growth.
Key Factors for Laser Hair Removal
Wavelength: Determines penetration depth and melanin absorption.
Pulse duration: Affects how energy is delivered to the hair follicles.
Fluence (energy level): Must be high enough to destroy the hair follicles without damaging the surrounding skin.
Skin type and hair color: Different lasers are optimized for different skin tones and hair textures.
Why choose Alexandrite and ND:YAG lasers?
Alexandrite (755nm): Best for light to olive skin tones (Fitzpatrick I-IV) and dark hair.
ND:YAG (1064nm): Best for dark skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV-VI) and coarse hair.
