The heat from the Laser kills the hairs but the hair remain in the follicle and often become attached to the epidermis. These hairs shed / fall out in a 1-3 week period after the treatment. During this period it will seem that the hairs are growing as the epidermis is pushing them out.

Exfoliation with a body brush or mild scrub is recommended approximately two weeks after the treatment to encourage shedding

3 wave ice cooled laser hair removal uses three different wavelengths 755nm 808nm and 1064nm. The 755nm is for the widest range of hair types and colour it offers more powerful energy absorption by the melanin chromophore especially light colour and thin hair. With more superficial penetration the 755nm wavelength targets the bulge of the follicle and is highly effective for superficially embedded hair in areas such as upper lip and eyebrows. The 808nm wavelength know as the classic hair reduction wavelength offers a deep penetration of the hair follicle with a fast repetition rate and a large dot size for fast treatment. 808nm has moderate melanin absorption making it safe for darker skin types. Its deep penetration capabilities target the bulge and the bulb of the follicle while moderate tissue depth make it ideal for treating the arms, legs, cheeks and beard. The 1064nm is specialized for darker skin types, the 1064nm is characterized by the low melanin absorption, making it a focused solution for darker skin types. At the same the 1064nm offers the deepest penetration of the hair follicle, allowing it to target the bulb and the papilla as well as deeply embedded hair such as the scalp, arm pits and pubic areas. With higher water absorption creating a higher temperature. The incorporation of the 1064nm wavelength increases the thermal profile of the overall laser treatment for th emost affective hair removal.
