15-Minute Laser Hair Removal?

July 2, 2009 · Published By  

LightSheer DUET Makes it Happen

Laser hair removal is now as routine as shaving. With its popularity growing, the technology continues to advance. The newest advancement, the LightSheer DUET laser, is revolutionizing the way laser hair removal is done. This brand new technology is a breakthrough in that its treatments are as much as three times faster than conventional lasers—and, unlike other lasers, it is essentially pain free. This opens up the procedure to so many who, for fear of pain, were either afraid to try it or tried it once and swore it off.  Men with hairy backs who would rather wax (OUCH!) can rejoice and women who swear by a daily shaving routine can now ditch the razors for good.

The best part about this new laser is that since it saves so much time on the treatment—taking only 15 minutes—it is easier to fit into your schedule and the treatment cost is less because it saves your medical provider time.

LightSheer DUET Gets the Job Done…Quickly
This new laser hair removal technology incorporates the gold standard LightSheer laser, long revered for its efficacy, with a new method of delivering the laser light. The part that dermatologists find exciting is the new DUET treatment tip—the portion of the laser that meets the surface of the skin. This tip is five times larger than a traditional tip, which means it treats a much larger area with just one zap.  A larger tip also means that the discomfort is actually much decreased.  Because the tip is larger, it allows the laser to operate at a much lower energy level to accomplish the same hair removal results as traditional lasers. All you will feel is some mild warmth and the gentle suction that the tip uses to draw the skin in closer to the laser source

This fast and virtually painless laser hair removal treatment is easy, affordable and pleasant. As a bonus, unlike many laser hair removal treatments, nearly any skin type—from the fairest to the darkest, including tan skin—can be safely and effectively treated with LightSheer DUET.

Things to Remember Before Getting Laser Hair Removal
Before you get any laser hair removal treatments, keep in mind that several treatments are needed to obtain permanent hair reduction.  Also, all laser hair removal is most effective when the hair to be treated is darker than the surrounding skin. This is because the lasers work by breaking down and destroying the dark pigment in the hair. Due to the laser’s sensitivity to dark pigment, it will also target melanin in the skin if the treatment is not administered properly. That means that those with darker skin become more susceptible to laser mishaps. This is why it is very important to make sure your treatment is done by a certified healthcare provider and directly supervised by a qualified physician.
