Laser Hair Removal

Bare Body are proud to offer the latest breakthrough technology in laser hair removal by Lumenis – the world leader in medical lasers and light-based technologies.

The high speed LightSheer duet is a laser that produces a larger beam of highly concentrated light. The light emitted is well absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicles. During the procedure, the laser pulses for a fraction of a second, allowing the hair to absorb the light and heat up. As it heats up, the hair shaft and bulb are damaged which significantly impedes its ability to re-grow. And with the large spot size, the process treats numerous hair follicles simultaneously, making the treatment much faster than traditional laser hair removal alternatives.

Although traditional laser hair removal is effective and generally well tolerated, there are three aspects which can be improved: treatment speed, discomfort and risk of adverse events. The large spot size of the high speed handpiece has significant advantages in all three areas. First and most simply, you can cover more area more quickly with a larger spot size. Secondly, the larger spot size allows better penetration of the laser energy, meaning that less energy needs to be applied at the surface to achieve therapeutic heating at the depth of the hair follicles. Lower fluency at the epidermis translates into less pain and lower risk of adverse events.
