How to prepare for the 1064nm long pulse laser?

 

The latest innovation in laser hair removal is the use of long-pulse Nd:YAG laser with an emission wavelength of 1064nm, which safely passes through the epidermis to the bottom layer. Hair follicles and hair shafts are rich in melanin. Based on selective photothermolysis, laser targets melanin for hair removal treatment. Long-pulse width laser hair removal is safe and effective for all skin types, especially those with darker skin tones.

 

HS-900 is the most advanced and versatile laser and light platform that offers treatments for multiple applications without investing in multiple laser systems.Its modular design provides multiple distinct cosmetic solutions all built into one compact unit,with this platform the different technologies can be purchased and incorporated in the unit at different times,offering versatility and ease to customers. Up to 8 functions can be assembled, each handpiece can be changed freely, and the system can automatically identify the type of handpiece.There are long-pulse Nd:YAG laser, IPL and RF, IPL, RF-Bipolar, RF-Monopolar, etc.

How to prepare for the 1064nm long pulse laser?

The treatment area should be shaved clean on the day of treatment or the day before treatment to ensure a more comfortable experience. Waxing and depilatories should be avoided for 2-4 weeks before and after 1064nm long pulse laser treatment. You do not need to shave or wax, as the 1064nm long pulse laser will slow down hair growth. For underarm treatments, antiperspirants should be avoided for 24 hours after treatment.

 

What are the functions of the 1064nm long pulse laser?

The 1064nm long pulse laser treatment works by gently heating the dermis to a temperature that will damage the hair follicles and hair bulbs, thus preventing re-growth, but without harming the surrounding skin. The hair removal process method uses a 1064nm long pulse laser that produces a beam of light energy. This energy targets the pigment in the hair to reach the hair follicle. The treatment requires two basic elements to work:

①The first is that the hair must be in the anagen phase of the hair growth cycle. The anagen phase is the active growth phase. This is the only phase where removal is effective. Only 15-20% of hairs are actively growing during the growth phase, so multiple treatments are required to effectively remove hair for long-term results.

②Secondly, the hair acts as a conduit to deliver heat to the hair follicle, so the second key factor in the process is the pigment. The 1064nm long pulse laser targets the pigment in the hair, so the darker the hair, the better the laser energy absorption and the higher the hair removal rate.

 

Is a 1064nm long pulse laser permanent?

After 1064nm long pulse laser treatments, patients may experience a permanent reduction in unwanted hair and smooth, soft skin. However, in some cases, some patients may need to patch up their removal treatment sessions due to genetic factors, hormones, and other reasons, usually only once or twice a year. However, most patients will experience long-lasting, beautiful results.
