Why are Medical Grade Lasers Best for Hair Removal?

Medical Grade lasers have been used since the mid 1990’s, and results were so positive that they became globally popular for men and women who wished to eliminate unwanted hair. The unquestionable efficacy and long-term results make lasers an ideal choice.

How Does a Medical grade Laser Work?

Medical grade lasers use a principle of selective photothermolysis. The Laser destroys the hair by emitting a single concentrated light beam, which is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. This light energy is then converted into thermal energy and this effectively ‘disables’ the hair growth.

What is IPL and why is Laser better?

IPL is a machine that uses Intense Pulse Light, often offered by clinics and salons as a method of hair removal. It’s not a laser, as IPL devices use Xenon flash lamps that emit full spectrum light (of many differing wavelengths) making it less specific for hair removal as a medical grade laser.

As this is such a general source of light, IPL may target various components of the skin such as, water, blood, lymph and also melanin in the hair. As the hair is not its sole target, IPL is great for other skin treatments, but not ideal for hair removal.
