Laser Hair Removal has been extensively researched, tested and proven highly effective in permanently reducing unwanted hair. It works on just about any treatment area of the body where smooth skin is desired: legs, face, underarms, neck, back, shoulders, bikini line, you name it.
All treatments are carried out by our fully qualified and experienced laser technicians who have been fully trained by Ascelepion Laser Technologies and Schuco International Ltd.
We use the FDA approved Asclepion MeDioStar XT, providing safe and efficient hair reduction. Unwanted hair can now be removed safely and this quality treatment is now offered at competitive prices.
Our laser is one of a wide range of diodes used in medical laser devices, the MeDioStar Effect diode offers elevated power, up to 500 W on the skin. This power ensures greater skin penetration, indispensable in hair removal for destroying the deepest follicles.
Hair grows in three distinct cycles. First, the active or growth cycle (Anagen); next, the dormant cycle (Catagen) and, finally, the fall-out or shedding cycle (Telogen). Laser Hair Removal is most effective during the growth cycle (Anagen).
The pigment in the hair follicle absorbs the laser light and converts the light to heat. The heat, in turn, damages the follicle and destroys its ability to re-grow. It is important to treat each follicle during the growth cycle for maximum hair reduction. Thus numerous treatments are needed to capture and destroy the hair follicle while it is in the growth cycle.
The Asclepion MeDioStar XT features two wavelengths in one device. The miXTure of the 810 nm and 940 nm wavelength offers a more gentle and safer treatment on darker skin types.
Asclepion MeDioStar XT has become a representation of safe hair reduction. Its high power reaches hair follicles at deeper levels. Even when using high energy, the application always remains delicate, guaranteeing low risk and gentle treatment for patients. The laser light penetrates the superficial skin layers, and the melanin pigments contained in the hair follicles absorb the energy. This absorption turns the light energy into heat, damaging the surrounding cell layers, which are responsible for hair regrowth.
The integrated Skin cooling device ensures safe and gentle treatment. The Asclepion MeDioStar XT is fitted with a cooling system that cools the area to be treated. This enhances patient comfort and safety during the treatment. A monitoring system inside the laser device regulates the cooling level, always keeping the skin temperature low and ensuring nearly pain-free, extremely delicate treatment for all skin types.
You can shave or use a depilatory cream or trim hairs. You should avoid waxing, electrolysis or plucking or any method that removes the hair from the follicles.
Several minutes after treatment, slight swelling and redness may be present in the treated area for up to 8 hours. The treatment area may feel tender or warm, similar to mild sunburn. Side effects can be minimised by avoiding sun exposure for 4 weeks prior to and during treatment.
The laser on the skin has been described in many different ways. Some say it feels like a pinch on the skin, others say it feels like a mild rubber band snap or that it feels cool.
Most people, male and female, are suitable candidates for laser hair removal, although we do not treat women during pregnancy or people under 18 years old.
Not all hairs are actively growing at the same time. They actually go through distinct phases: growing, resting and dying off. The laser treatment works by disabling hair that is in the active growth phase at the time of treatment.
On average, most clients are happy with 6 treatments, however since other hairs will enter this active growth phase at different times, additional treatments may be necessary to disable all hair follicles in a given area. Treatments are usually given at intervals of 6-12 weeks, depending on the particular area of the body being treated and the density of the hair in that area. Our staff will work with you to develop the best treatment program during your consultation.
LASER is a very special type of light that has three characteristics that separate it as the brightest, most powerful light known to mankind. LASER light is monochromatic (i.e. one colour) so this means nearly 100% of LASER light is ONE pure colour. Intense pulse light (IPL) is NOT monochromatic, meaning that IPL has many different colours and only a small percentage of these colours are effective in the treatment of hair reduction.
LASER is collimated meaning it’s slow to diverge or spread out. This makes LASER light very powerful as nearly 100% of the light can be effective in the treatment of hair reduction. IPL is NOT collimated and so therefore is quick to spread out making it less effective in the treatment of hair reduction.
Finally LASER is coherent meaning that the light is totally reinforcing and doesn’t cancel itself out whereas IPL is NOT coherent and is NOT reinforcing making it less effective in the treatment of hair reduction.
