IPL or Laser Hair Removal?

GentleLASE and GentleYAG Laser Hair Removal or Intense Pulsed Light IPL Hair Removal System

GentleLASE, GentleYAG and Intense Pulsed Light hair removal treatments all emit light to cause thermal damage to the hair follicle. The technical differences between the technologies relate to the wavelength colours that are emitted with each laser pulse. The GentleLASE and GentleYAG laser hair removal systems emit a single concentrated light beam and the Palmar Starlux / Multilux IPL hair removal System includes a variety of coloured wavelengths that work simultaneously to target the specific area being treated.

Based on our experience in using all technologies

The GentleLASE and GentleYAG laser technologies operate at optimal wavelengths of light that is best absorbed by both the hair shaft and follicle while protecting the surface skin from heat damage. The GentleLASE has been shown to be a more successful laser hair removal method for permanent reduction of unwanted, unsightly hair. Unlike other laser hair removal tools, the GentleLASE laser system incorporates state of the art dynamic cooling device technology where cryogen is sprayed onto the skin, continuously cooling the skin during treatment. This proprietary feature helps to maximise the effectiveness of the treatment and decrease skin damage. At Results Laser Clinic Sydney CBD, Liverpool, Burwood, Ryde, Blacktown, Parramatta, Wollongong,  Melbourne and Brisbane we use the GentleLASE and GentleYAG removal systems to ensure our clients are given the choice of two of the most efficient options available for light-based treatment of unwanted hair. One may be more suitable than the other based on the patient’s skin type, however, clinical studies have shown that in most cases a laser technology is more effective in the treatment of unwanted hair.

Laser Awareness Day

Laser Awareness Day was held on 28 June 2010. Therapists, industry specialists and clients came together to increase awareness and reflect on the history of laser as well as the remarkable innovations available with companies such as Candela. It was also an opportunity to make individuals more knowledgeable in the area of lasers and laser hair removal. NSW is an unregulated industry where many have suffered from the inexperience of unqualified laser hair removal therapists, second-hand technologies and unsafe practices.

On Laser Awareness Day, many came together contribute to increased public recognition of laser trauma as well as greater professional interest.   Laser Awareness Day is much more than information and answers. At its core, Laser Awareness Day is a celebration driven by Results Laser Clinic, of what’s great about being accredited and qualified.

Post Treatment Advice

To ensure you have a safe, quick and permanent hair laser removal solution, this article provides post treatment advice and the steps to be taken after a laser hair removal treatment.

Immediately after laser hair removal treatment

The area has just been treated and will be sensitive, slightly red and swollen. This is a normal reaction to a laser hair removal treatment that will subside within 2- 12 hours. To aid in the soothing and healing of the skin, your laser hair removal therapist will apply a skin soothing gel. A hot shower within 24 hours of the conducted treatment is not advised and must not exceed a lukewarm temperature. As the sensitivity of the skin has also increased, strongly scented lotions or soaps, exfoliant creams and aggressing scrubbing should be avoided.

Post Treatment: Two to four weeks after laser hair removal treatment

Stubble will appear within 1-4 weeks of the hair removal treatment. This is not hair regrowth, rather, it is the treated hair being purged from the follicles. You must allow this hair to fall out of the skin on its own. Hairs that were in the rest phase at the treatment may enter the active phase in 1-6 months depending on the body. Follow-up treatment may be performed within 1-2 weeks of new hair growth. Keeping a mental note of these useful tips will not only ensure a great laser hair removal experience, but a newfound confidence and positive attitude about your appearance.

Ingrown Hair

An ingrown hair problem can be overcome with laser hair removal! Ingrown hairs are one of the most bothersome and unsightly things on the body. Ingrown hairs can also be a painful hassle for both women and men.

What are ingrown hairs?

The razor bump condition is also medically termed pseudofolliculitis barbae. Development of ingrown hairs occur when they are broken off short with a sharp tip. Ingrown hairs can be cause by different types of hair removal methods. This includes the following:

• Depilatories- dissolve the hair using chemicals instead of it breaking or being pulled from the root. One of the least likely temporary hair removal methods to cause ingrown hair.
• Shaving- the hair is removed at or just below the skin with the blunt cut of the razor. Ingrown hair is most likely to be cause by this method.
• Tweezing- distortion of the hair follicle is caused as the tweezer pulls the hair from the root. The angle of growth is consequently improper, cause ingrown hair.
• Waxing- distortion of the hair growth also occurs as hair is pulled from the root.
• Electrolysis- a metal probe is inserted into the hair follicle, followed by a mild electronic current killing the hair. The results of this method are varying, but eliminates ingrown hair if successful.
• Laser Hair Removal- successful procedures destroy the hair follicles by using laser lights, permanently reducing hair growth.

While traditional techniques such as shaving and waxing remove unwanted hair temporarily, they lead to annoying rashes. Laser hair removal technology ensures that ingrown hairs are eliminated and skin has a smooth and flawless finish. How does the laser hair removal procedure work? Wavelengths of light energy are gently delivered to both the hair shaft and follicle in pulses, through a delicate, computer-controlled hand piece. Effectively, the source of the unwanted hair growth problem is targeted and treated, therefore allowing for permanent results.
