Diode Laser 808nm hair removal system uses a unique laser with a long pulse width to penetrate into the hair follicle.
Using the theory of selective optical absorption, the laser can be preferentially absorbed by the melanin of the hair. The hair shaft and hair follicle are heated rapidly in order to destroy the oxygen-supply to the hair follicle. The system’s unique super-cooling technology creates a somewhat anaesthetic effect to the epidermis with the output of the laser. There will be no damage to the skin. It is a safe and effective treatment.
The hair follicles growth is hereby stopped and the result is a permanent hair removal.

Intense Pulsed Light technology utilises specific wavelengths of light to target various chromophores in the skin.
Intense pulsed light describes the use of intense pulses of non-coherent light distributed over a range of wavelengths from 500 nm to 1200 nm, for removal of hair and other purposes.

A related but distinct technique is laser hair removal; the primary difference is that laser treatment uses laser-generated coherent and monochromatic light.
