The Lightsheer Duet 810nm diode laser is recommended for patients with light, medium, and darker skin and dark hair. This fast-paced laser includes a suction-coupled handpiece that reduces discomfort during treatment.
The GentleMax Pro Laser is a combination of the GentleLase 755nm Alexandrite and the GentleYAG 1064nm Nd:YAG laser hair removal devices. The GentleLase 755nm Alexandrite is used for patients with lighter colour skin and brown or dark hair, while the GentleYAG is used for patients with darker skin and dark hair. By combining both devices with the GentleMax Pro Laser, SpaMedica can reduce hair growth for all skin types. The laser can treat large areas quickly and efficiently, speeding up the treatment time.
The Triton Laser combines three wavelengths in a single device. It is the only laser in the world that will release 2 wavelengths in the same pulse,This device contains the 755nm Alexandrite for light skin and dark hair , the 810nm Diode, and the 1064nm Nd:YAG laser wavelength for dark skin and dark hair patients. This device works on light and darker skin types and glides across the skin, quickly treating large areas. The dual wavelength emission gives 85% reduction in only 3 treatments.
The Diolaze 810nm high-speed diode laser is used for patients with light to dark skin tones. The high-speed laser maintains short pulse duration and optimal high fluence and can treat large areas quickly.
The Elite Alexandrite and Nd:YAG laser hair removal system is a dual-wavelength laser that combines the Elite 755nm Alexandrite laser and the Elite 1064nm Nd:YAG laser into a single device. While the 755nm is used for lighter skin and dark hair, the Nd:YAG 1064nm is recommended for darker skin and dark hair. Dr. Mulholland blends the two lasers to provide the best possible results.
The Vectus 810nm Diode Laser is used for patients with light, medium, and darker skin types and dark hair. This is the fastest diode laser hair removal system available and can complete the lower leg, chest, or back in 6-8 minutes.
The eMax laser combines intense pulsed light and bipolar radiofrequency to provide optimal laser hair removal. Hairs with little pigment and fine hairs respond to this system.
The Motif Vantage includes an 810nm diode laser with bipolar radiofrequency energy. This creates electrical optical synergy (ELOS). The hybrid laser reduces the risk of hypopigmentation and burns and can be used on darker skin types and to treat fine and light hair.
There are home based energy devices that can provide some temporary home pulsed light reduction as well as shaving, waxing and electrolysis.
SpaMedica’s highly trained laser technicians, perform the laser hair removal procedure. The process begins with a consultation to determine the right combination of lasers and wavelengths to use to achieve the desired effects. SpaMedica can use up to 14 different lasers for each patient, which is why they can perform some of the best laser hair removal in Ontario.
Then the laser technician trains a beam of light on the unwanted hair. This disables the hair follicles so they cannot grow back. Hair grows in cycles, so patients will come back for four additional treatments, spaced out every 8-12 weeks.
Patients need to take some steps to prepare for laser hair removal at SpaMedica. Patients should:
● Avoid sun exposure for two weeks.
● Avoid electrolysis, tweezing, and waxing for four weeks.
● Do NOT shave the hair on the day before and the day of the treatment, leaving stubbles for the technician to easily identify the borders of the hair bearing skin.
Patients can leave SpaMedica immediately following the laser hair removal treatment. It can take one to two weeks to begin to notice the results, and the full results aren’t apparent until after the final treatment.
Recovery is relatively simple following laser hair removal. Patients will often experience bumps and redness that generally go away within 8 hours but may last several days. Ingrown hairs also might take several days to express. Dead hair shafts will often eject out over the first 2 weeks.
Suntanning is not recommended for two weeks following the session. Patients should wear sunscreen when going out in direct sunlight as well.
Non-surgical, non-invasive fat reduction treatments with Coolsculpting, Evolve or Sculpsure. Skin tightening and cellulite reduction pair well with laser hair removal.
Permanent hair removal in Toronto is not painful. SpaMedica uses lasers with built-in cooling systems that reduce the discomfort. The laser technician can also provide a topical anaesthetic cream and laughing gas (nitrous oxide) during the treatment to reduce any further discomfort.
The results of laser hair removal are permanent.
You should not wax or pluck in between laser hair removal treatments. Instead, you can shave to remove unwanted hair between treatments and ensure you do not shave 2 days before the next treatment, or long enough to ensure there is visible stubble.
