THE LIGHTSHEER LASER

FOR WOMEN AND MEN

FOR PERMANENT

HAIR REMOVAL

Now there is a better solution

for unwanted hair...

As a woman or a man

you may be surprised to learn

that just about your entire body

 is coveredwith hair.

Some is course and dark,

and some is so fine and pale

that it isn't visibleto the naked eye.

 Humans, in fact, have more hair

follicles per square inch

than most higher primates,

including chimpanzees and gorillas.

 

 

As a man, shaving or trimming your beard and mustache are regular grooming tasks you're used to. But what you may not like is that bothersome excess hair on your back or shoulders, around the ears, or between the eyebrows that seems to grow back faster than you can pluck or shave it. Or perhaps you're a competitive athlete for whom regular shaving of body hair is a tedious chore. Then it may be the time to consider hair removal with the  LightSheer  Diode Laser.

As a woman, when darker, coarser hair appears in places we don't expect - like on the face, neck, abdomen, breasts, or arms - or prevents us from wearing a high-cut bathing suit, shorts or even a short skirt, it may be time to consider hair removal with the LightSheer Diode Laser.

Understanding hair removal:

In the past the usual remedies for unwanted hair were plucking, shaving, waxing or chemical depilatories. Some are painful, some are messy, and all are only temporary.

For long-term hair removal, electrolysis is popular and effective but can be painful and slow. Hair by hair, an electric current passes through a needle to destroy the hair root's ability to grow. It typically takes months or even years of regular repeated treatments - even for small areas, like your upper lip or eyebrows. Risks include electrical shock, infection, and pitting and scarring.

Now there's a more effective solution, the new LightSheer Diode Laser, a state-of-the-art system, specially designed to remove unwanted hair faster, more comfortably, and more reliably than electrolysis. It is the world's most advanced treatment for effective removal of unwanted hair. Great news for men and women who want to get rid of excess hair. Depending on your needs, most body areas can be treated with this state-of-the-art technology.

Understanding laser treatment:

A laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light. Different types of lasers produce different colours of light. The colour of light produced by a particular laser is the key to its effect on hair follicles.

The light emitted by the LightSheer Diode Laser is absorbed by the pigment located in hair follicles. The laser pulses for a fraction of a second, just long enough to vaporize the pigment, disabling several follicles at a time to eliminate or significantly impede the hair's re-growth.

Importantly, LightSheer's special contact cooling headpiece cools and protects the surrounding skin while bringing the laser energy as close as possible to the hair root.

What you can expect:

The length of a laser session may be a few minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the area being treated. Because the laser tends to treat hair follicles that are in an active growth phase, more than one treatment may be required to disable hair follicles that subsequently enter this growth phase. However, one treatment may result in a significant enough improvement that it may be all you desire or require.

The laser treatment can cause a slight tingling sensation. Most patients tolerate the procedure well. But because some areas of the body are more sensitive than others, topical anesthesia is always available.

The appearance of the treated area immediately after a laser session will vary from patient to patient depending on the extent of treatment. Immediate after-effects, if any, are minor. They may include redness and swelling, which disappear in a short time. Most people return to normal activity right away.
