A laser hair removal treatment targets the melanin in the hair follicles. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment and converted to heat. This heat then damages the hair follicle, which inhibits future hair growth. In Golden Pulse Laser Clinic, we utilize Soprano Ice laser machine which is a new laser hair removal system using a novel cooling technology to protect the skin. Soprano Ice is a pain-free system that can treat almost all skin and hair types. The technology of Soprano is not based on a single high-energy pulse, which can cause trauma to the skin with a high melanin count.
The SHR technology of this machine slowly heats the skin to the right temperature and delivers proper amount of energy to the hair root. This system is a safe and effective laser hair option, even for dark-skinned patients.
Soprano Ice Laser Hair Removal Procedure
At Golden Pulse clinic, we always start with assessing your skin and hair type. Then, we run some a laser test on the treatment area before scheduling your treatments plan. Based on the result of the assessment and test, we set the system parameters which suit your skin requirements.
The laser hair removal machine emits a pulse of laser that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. This light energy is converted to heat, which destroys the hair follicle. The new ICE machine further cools the skin by integrating numerous cooling mechanisms. Soprano Ice proven SHR technology and the In-Motion technique moved laser hair removal can remove hair from all parts of the body including the face, legs, arms, underarms, and back.
Laser Hair Removal decreases the amount of original hair remarkably, thinner hairs, and also slows down the speed of hair growth. The density of hair left after the laser treatment is low and usually you don’t feel the need for shaving or waxing.
