What they've always kept from you about laser hair removal
All websites dedicated to selling laser hair removal sessions provide the usual explanations about how these machines work.
However, they do not give you the essential information.
Here it is:
1/Laser hair removal has been performed for 30 years using machines that are true lasers with TWO wavelengths:
- Alexandrite for fair skin
- Yag for dark skin
2/But since the 2010s, machines have been attempting to invade the low-end hair removal market.
These are not true lasers.
These machines are much cheaper to buy, but they are also much less effective and are intended for use in salons or by beauticians.
They use pulsed light (IPL, OPL, etc.) or DIODE lamps.
How can you tell the difference between a real hair removal laser and a low-end machine?
Real lasers operate without a layer of gel, while low-end lamps require a thick layer of gel to cool the skin and prevent burns.
This layer of gel on the skin in contact with the laser source is problematic because its use promotes the transmission of microbes from one patient to another.

LASER HAIR REMOVAL WITHOUT SKIN CONTACT
________________________
For all our hair removal treatments, we use the Apogee laser from Cynosure,
the only hair removal laser that does NOT come into contact with the skin.
It is the most effective laser...
and the most hygienic!
The laser head does not come into contact with the skin or genital mucous membranes,
so there is no risk of transmitting microbes from one patient to another.
Herpes virus: bikini hair removal
Fungal infections in skin folds: bikini line, underarms
Staphylococcus aureus: all hair removal areas
COVID-19, etc.
It provides practitioners with two wavelengths
ALEXANDRITE 755 nm
most effective on fair skin
YAG 1064 nm
THE ONLY ONE THAT DOES NOT RISK BURNING DARK OR BLACK SKIN
Patient who contracted Staphylococcus aureus during pulsed light hair removal.
Day 2: lesions around the bikini area
Day 5: spread to the body
Day 7: spread to the face in the form of impetigo = stage at which we see it and treat it with penicillin (+smear test)
In the laser epilations field, the Cosmetic & Lasers dermatology Brussels center is a clear reference. His epilations offers as the quality are very trustworthy. Some hair removal chains use flashlights, which have low efficacy and present a high risk of burns. By choosing our care center, you ensure effective and safe epilation at reasonable prices. Indeed, we favour an innovative approach through cutting-edge technology: laser processing. Our doctors are professional laserists recognized for their competencies.
What types of laser hair removal are available?
Depending on the type of skin, our specialists in aesthetic medicine will offer you the appropriate laser hair removal formula. If you have a clear complexion, the laser that is right for you is the ALEXANDRITE laser. Effective, it requires only six sessions for the intervention, unlike flash lamps, which require much more. In addition to being effective, the ALEXANDRITE laser guarantees great hygiene for the patient without any risk of side effects, it is the only one that acts without contact with the skin and mucous membranes!
The same applies to the YAG laser, this time reserved for black or dark skins. This type of technology is also safe, knowing that it protects against germs transmission. Indeed, the head of the device does not come into contact with the skin. A distance of two centimetres is respected, which allows a clear intervention. Of course, hair removal includes all hair areas of the body without exception and according to the patient's request.

Burns during hair removal due to poor choice of laser and centres without doctors

Black skin flash or LED light = burns Only YAG laser on dark skin!
Mediterranean skin types in beauty salons
medical (non-cosmetic) indications for laser hair removal
Laser hair removal can be performed for aesthetic and comfort reasons.
However, we regularly receive requests for laser hair removal for medical reasons, the most common of which are:
1. Recurrent ingrown hairs after waxing, shaving, etc. (bikini line, underarms and even legs
2. Keratosis pilaris (very common) (small rough red spots on the back of the arms)
3. Keloid scars on ingrown hairs on black skin (use only YAG laser! - no diode, flash lamp, etc.
4. Pilonidal sinus (plastic surgeons refer patients to us for hair removal from the intergluteal cleft after surgery)
5. Hirsutism (abnormal hair growth on the face and below the navel in women due to hormonal disorders)
Recurrent folliculitis:
Recurrent inflammation and infection after each hair removal session using another method (waxing, shaving, etc.)
1. Pilonidal sinus: Diode laser, Nd-Yag LP, Alexandrite LP, 4 sessions/2-week intervals, pain/local anaesthesia (topical, local), no complications, no recurrence: 86.6% (Follow-up: 5-7 years).
2.Hidradenitis suppurativa: chronic disease that progresses in flare-ups. The lasers offered are Nd-Yag LP, diode, and IPL. 20 patients: biopsies before and after treatment with Nd-Yag LP (deep penetration), parameters: 10mm, 20-35 days, double staking (1st treatment), triple staking (2nd treatment) / Inflammatory lesions. Improvement: 2nd month (32% fibrosis), 4th month (clinical and histological 72.7%). Treatment must be aggressive: Staking+++
3. Dissecting cellulitis of the scalp: Chronic inflammation (papules, pustules) with scarring alopecia. Diode laser monotherapy, 4 sessions, tolerance+++, no recurrence/6 months-1 year.
4. Pseudofolliculitis barbae: high demand, Nd-Yag LP laser/safe and effective method, reduction/papules and pustules & size/hair, 50%/1 session, 90%/3 months High fluences are recommended: 50J/cm² (PT IV), 100 J/cm² (PT V-VI); Reduction: 56%/3 sessions. Some authors recommend low doses: 12 J/cm2, 2-5 weekly sessions. However, the Alexandrite LP laser causes worsening of the condition.
5. Keloid acne on the neck: laser treatment should be the first treatment offered. It is effective and has a low recurrence rate. The recommended lasers are Diode, Alexandrite LP, Nd-Yag LP and Er:YAG. Reduction of 90-97% after 4 sessions.
6. Trichostasis spinulosa: Hair removal laser treatment provides a permanent solution by destroying the telogen hairs trapped in the same keratin sheath and responsible for hyperkeratosis. The treatment is reported to be effective with minimal discomfort and no side effects. No recurrence in 90% of cases (follow-up: 2 years).
7. Keratosis pilaris: common, affects the proximal parts of the limbs, responsible for erythema and rough skin. Short wavelength vascular lasers reduce erythema but not skin irregularity. Significant improvement in skin texture and roughness was achieved after 3 sessions of 810 nm diode laser treatment over 4-5 weeks.
8. Axillary hyperhidrosis: Nd-YAG LP: 1 session/month, treated side & untreated side, biopsies: destruction of eccrine glands on the side treated with Nd-Y AG LP. No improvement with 800 nm diode laser.
7. Becker's nevus: Laser treatment is not satisfactory; treating hypertrichosis and hyperpigmentation remains challenging, with a risk of blistering. Diode or Nd YAG LP lasers are used at low fluences/5 sessions over 6 weeks; improvement noted after 1 year.
8. Skin grafts: involving hair (surgical reconstruction/basal cell carcinomas of the nose, burns to the fingertips, etc.)
9. Reconstruction of intraoral structures (pharynx and hypopharynx, etc.): skin grafts with hair in the oropharynx cause irritation, hypersalivation and food trapping. It is difficult to insert the laser into the oral cavity. However, the Alexandrite LP (7 mm) has been used successfully through the laryngoscope light at 90°.
10. Laser hair removal from the intravaginal and intraurethral areas of transsexuals:
vaginoplasty and phalloplasty
11. Urethral repairs (hypospadias): The use of a 15W diode laser with a lateral beam in the postoperative period allows hair to be treated. Hair promotes the formation of stones.
12. Hair growth around stomas: prevents the adhesion of equipment and shaving and causes folliculitis.
Laser treatment reduces trauma and infection. Laser treatment reduces trauma and infection.
13. Frontal hair transplantation in women: Unsightly thick hair can be treated with laser. Nd-YAG LP (35-36J/cm2, 6 ms) reduces hair diameter without damaging the grafted follicles (improvement/87%).
