Hair removal is among the most common aesthetic concerns worldwide and concerns both men and women.

Treatment Options

There are several options available for hair removal, and many over the counter options, although most are not permanent. Permanent hair reduction can only be achieved through the application of energy directly to the hair follicle.

The removal or permanent reduction of unwanted hair by laser light depends on the scientific principle of selective photo-thermolysis. When the correct wavelength of laser light is applied to hair in the treatment area, melanin in the hair absorbs the light, which is converted into heat energy. Buildup of thermal energy causes the destruction of hair follicles as well as associated stem cells and dermal papillae, while the surrounding skin is undamaged. Some follicles will only be damaged or may regrow, so numerous treatments are required to reduce or eliminate unwanted hair effectively for a persistent result.

Many devices are limited in their utility because the different parameters cannot be adjusted independently (if at all). Understandably, treatment of darker skin is more challenging due to the higher concentration of melanin in the skin as a competing chromophore.

LUTRONIC ADVANTAGE is a re-engineered, high energy pulsed diode laser system for hair removal and permanent hair reduction. This is the first laser system to integrate adjustable pulse width control with a large spot chilled compression tip. Built with speed, efficacy and comfort as the foundation.

ADVANTAGE provides the flexibility to reduce pulse widths while delivering higher fluences, patients can be assured their treatments will be highly effective. You should see immediate hair reduction and exceptional results after the treatment regimen.

HOW IT WORKS

The chilled compression tip continually cools and compresses the epidermis before, during and after the treatment
