Beauty Within prides itself on using a state of the art laser machine, Lightsheer® (not IPL!) which offers a results driven, pain free and long lasting hair removal option.

 

The LightSheer® diode laser is a state-of-the-art system specially designed to remove unwanted hair faster, with less discomfort and more reliably than other methods.

At Beauty Within we have a Lumenis LightSheer® Desire Medical Grade 4 Diode Laser that is a GENUINE laser solution (compared to IPL, which is Intense Pulsed “Light”).

 

Treatment expectations

Treatments use repeated laser pulses to target existing hair, creating a direction of energy into the hair follicles that prevent future growth. Multiple treatments are required to achieve permanent hair reduction. This is due to the increased effect of the laser on hair in the early growth stage (anagen). Not all the hairs are in the same phase at a given time.

Post treatment

The appearance of the treated area following treatment varies from patient to patient, depending on the characteristics of the patient and treatment given. During the treatment, some hairs will shed from the follicle immediately, while the remaining will shed in the following weeks. Transient redness and swelling around the hair follicle may appear immediately after the treatment, but are in fact, positive results indicating the follicle’s response to the treatment. Following the treatment, you will be provided with guidelines, namely in terms of sun exposure.

Treatment Benefits

  • Minimal Side Effects:
    Only a few minor side effects and those which do occur, tend not to last more than a few days.
  • Cost Effective:
    You will no longer need to spend your money on regular expensive wax treatments, depilatory creams, razors or other methods of hair removal. It may be more cost up front, but over your life, you will save a huge amount by no longer having to spend on these procedures.
  • No Ingrown Hairs:
    Unlike waxing, threading and epilating, you will not have to put up with painful and unsightly ingrown hairs. Neither will you have to tolerate razor burns or irritation. Laser hair removal can even improve ingrown hairs.
  • No Waiting For Hair Growth:
    You don’t need surface hair for a laser hair removal treatment. In fact, you are encouraged to shave soon before your session to prevent you scorching any of the surface hair.
  • Precise:
    Laser hair removal specifically targets hairs right down at the follicle. This is a particular benefit over intense pulsed light (IPL) hair removal as the use of the laser makes it more suited to treating people with dark skin tones. The precision also means you should get results sooner.
  • Effective:
    Most patients can achieve permanents hair loss within 3 and 7 sessions, so laser hair removal is very successful.

How does it work?

LightSheer laser system®

The LightSheer® uses a state-of-the-art 805nm diode laser, which ensures safety for all skin types. Repeated laser pulses target existing hair, creating a direction of energy into the hair follicles that prevent future growth. The LightSheer® allows us to truly customize treatment for your hair type, skin type and lifestyle.

ChillTip technology

The ChillTip technology uses a proprietary cooling system to momentarily numb the skin to minimize pain, while compressing the handpiece to the skin to rotate the follicle and enable better results.

The LightSheer diode laser is a state-of-the-art system specially designed to remove unwanted hair faster, with less discomfort and more reliably than other methods.

With ChillTip™, the skin is cooled before and during treatment. It is then compressed and the laser beam is directed to the skin.
