Why our laser hair removal services are so efficacious and superior?

 
Any superior machines become useless if there's no signs of perifollicular oedema 5-15 min after being hit by light beams and hair doesn't fall out within few weeks post each treatment session.

Any inferior machines can work effectively when hair follicles become inflamed soon after the treatment procedure and hair fall out in 1-2 weeks after each session.

Superior machines can help clients achieve ultimate greater reduction result long-term at the right hand, for instance more than 90% permanent hair reduction, instead of less than 75-80%. Therefore hire the right therapists with the right machines for LHR when majority of your hair is in anagen.


One of the significant factors in achieving optimised result is not only the right machine, but the therapist’s knowledge, experience and understanding of the technology and the machine he or she is working with. Thus, the info found via the following link is super important to achieve the ultimate permanent/long-term result of greater hair reduction. Click here for the link.



Some professionally-claimed machines and many home devices with low powers cannot supply enough energy to damage hair follicles.

For example, a hair dryer with 2200 watts can heat and dry hair much faster & more efficient than a 750-W one.

With a skilled therapist and low power machine, clients will observe good results for the first few treatment sessions and less on subsequent treatment sessions. Thereafter, the results will plateau as it is beyond the machine's capacity to be able to provide any further reductions.

As clients progress with subsequent LHR treatment sessions, their hair becomes finer and lighter and locates shallower, requiring shorter pulse width and concentrated beams of higher fluence (energy) than does initial hair which is denser, thicker, coarser & darker. In order to achieve beyond 80% long-term/permanent hair reduction, ensure the power output of a LHR machine isn't lower than 2000 watts to ensure the machine can perform this.

Why our laser hair removal machine is better?

Our machine has output power of 8200 watts. It uses crystals Alexandrite and Nd:YAG as its laser sources, emitting both 755 & 1064 nm wavelengths at the same time or separately. Since it is a true laser and not spreading Diode or IPL light, our machine is able to emit more concentrated, higher energy and more efficacious for difficult to treat residual, fine & light hair after multiple LHR sessions that other machines struggle with, thus achieving better & greater hair reduction/removal results.




What makes our machine standing out from the rest?

Our machine is designed to effectively treat not only dark, dense, thick, & coarse hair, but also residual, fine hair that other machines struggle with. A traditional difficulty in LHR has centred around the ability to treat dark skins with fine hair. Our machine is designed to tackle this problem by mixing both wavelengths, such that fine hairs can be treated on all skin colours.


Our machine has been approved by Australian TGA, USA FDA, European EMA and by other regulatory bodies around the world as the medical laser device indicated for long term or permanent hair reduction/removal for all skin colours, Fitzpatrick I-VI.




Why multiple wavelengths are more effective in destroying hair follicles than single wavelength?

Candela Gentle series and Cutera machines can only emit a single wavelength at a time, but our laser machine, Duetto MT EVO by Quanta System, can emit both wavelengths allowing us to treat multiple targets & depths at the same time. 755 nm treats shallower part of hair follicles while 1064 nm treats deeper part.

755 targets dark pigments, such as dark melanins, thus more effective than 1064 nm in destroying hair with light colours.

1064 nm targets oxyhaemoglobin and water in the blood, thus cutting off nutrients and hormones supplies and starving the follicles to death.


 


 

As you progress with subsequent LHR sessions, your hair becomes thinner & shallower. Thus setting parameters must match the characteristic of your hair follicles as you progress with more treatment sessions:

- Wavelength should be shorter for shallower penetration, otherwise it misses the target.

- Pulse duration/width should be shorter, therefore millisecond should be shorter and our machine can be as short as 0.3 ms.

Unlike Pico and Q-Switch are too quick and can only bleach your hair, destroying only dark melanin pigment, but not your hair follicles.

- Fluence, Hz & no of passes should be increased.

Laser Hair Removal Based On Area


Why our LHR services cost a bit more than franchised laser clinics?

1. We are very thorough and we spend time to ensure all the areas you purchase are treated efficaciously. 
 
2. Most importantly, we guarantee results.
Other laser clinics provide price match guarantee where they will match their competitors' prices for the same treatments if customers find cheaper prices elsewhere. But we provide guaranteed results for long-term/permanent hair removal or reduction using laser treatments.
 
You will see significant change since your initial 1st treatment.
 
You may have to spend at least 6 - 8 treatments in other laser clinics and your result might NOT be as great reduction as you can achieve after 4th treatment from here.
 
3. Hygiene & Privacy are also ones of our domains.
Each client are appointed around 30 min gap apart for cleaning, disinfection & air refreshing. All direct contact surfaces including staff uniforms, linens, treatment bed covers, door knobs and etc. are disinfected, changed and/or newly washed after each individual client. 

 

 

Minimum charge for Laser Hair Removal is $35 per treatment session.

Contraindications of Laser Hair Removal


Laser hair removal isn't for everyone.

(The list is not meant to be exhaustive but is a good starting point for issues that are contraindicated for LHR.)

If you have any concern or questions, you are more than welcome to contact us.

• individuals with infectious disease
 
• individuals who can't stay out of the sun

• body dysmorphic disorder
 
• history of skin cancer, such as melanoma

• raised moles, suspicious lesions, hypertrophic/keloid scar formation, healing problems, active infections, open lesions, wounds, open skin, hives, herpetic lesions, cold sores, autoimmune diseases such as lupus, psoriasis, scleroderma or vitiligo

• Individuals with a known history of frequent Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) 1 or 2 lesions should begin prophylaxis prior to treatment as prescribed by their physician. Clients are advised to take the antiviral medications (examples: acyclovir or valacyclovir) at least one day before and continue after each treatment session strictly as directed until you finish the prescription, even if you feel better. If you stop taking medication too soon or skip doses, your infection may not be completely treated or may become more tolerant and difficult to treat.

Photosensitivity can be induced by your genetic inheritance and/or certain substances.
In the present & in the last 6 months, have you been using the following substances? (Click here to see non-exhaustive list.)
The list are examples of photosensitising/photosensitive substances that can induce photosensitivity and can make your skin sensitive to light including laser light and sunlight.
These substances are some medications, herbals, supplements, vitamins and/or cosmetic products (either via ingestion, topical application, inhalation and/or injection) you are currently using and/or you have been using within the last 6 months.
Exposure to light, these medication may induce hyper-, hypo-pigmentation, dermatitis, blister or burn.
LHR can be performed when clients stay off such medication for at least its 1/2 life or longer when it is out of their body system.
Clients are advised to consult their doctors before stop their medications.
Clients are also advised to stay off such medication 7 days after each light-based therapy.

• Hydroquinone, skin brightener, skin lightening or bleaching agent – Stay off them for at least 7 days prior to and after each LHR due to higher risk of pigmentation complications

• Pregnancy, trying to get pregnant, or during breastfeeding

• Seizure disorders including light-triggered seizures

• Intramuscular gold therapy

• Individuals who r currently taking anticoagulants, blood thinners, iron supplements, herbal supplements such as ginkgo, ginseng or garlic may bruise more readily.

• Individuals with implanted medical devices such as Pacemakers, cardioverters, and other implantable devices or fillers, please consult your physician.

• Inflamed skin, injured skin, wounds => You can have LHR after these areas healed.

Do not apply any irritants to your treated area, such as any products containing benzoyl peroxide, glycolic/salicylic acids, AHA, alcohols, witch hazel, astringents, vitamin A and its derivatives, such as retinoids (like over-the-counter retinol and prescribed stronger tretinoin (Retin A), Tazorac, or etc. for at least 7 days before and after the LHR treatment.

• Here, we do NOT treat clients with recently tanned skin or fake tan. Blisters, burns, hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation may occur. Allow tan to fade prior to treatment. When in doubt, compare treatment area with limited sun exposure area such as your bum

Natural tanning or artificial tanning products darken the surface of the skin. When the surface of the skin darkens, more laser energy will be absorbed by the skin's surface rather than by the hair - our main target. When too much light energy is absorbed at the skin surface, not only it posts higher risk for burn, but also less result in hair reduction.

Other places can treat tan skin because they use low settings to lower risks of over treatments such as burn. But this will ruin clients' ultimate results to have the uttermost hair reduction in the long run.

• For clients with sensitive skin and histamine, or have a history of allergy, hay fever, asthma, eczema, prolonged erythema or edema, taking oral anti-histamine 1 hours before & 48-72 hrs after laser treatment is optionally recommended. Prescribed topical corticosteroids may also be another option. Click here for possible adverse effects of corticosteroid creams.

• For optimal hair removal results, wait around 6 - 8 weeks (not earlier and not later) after waxing, plucking, threading, epilation cream or other methods that affect or disturb hair underneath the skin, before having LHR.

• Between each LHR session => NO waxing, plucking, threading, epilation cream and/or other methods that affect or disturb hair underneath the skin => No No No

• After you finish course of multiple laser sessions, NO waxing, plucking, threading, epilation cream or other methods that affect or disturb hair underneath the skin => No No No

• Avoid any heating devices including LHR 2 weeks prior to or after Botox.

• Avoid laser treatments at least 2-4 weeks or longer prior to or after filler. Consult with your provider for their specific recommendations.
