A laser produces a beam of highly concentrated light. The light emitted by the LightSheerTM diode laser is absorbed by
the pigment located in hair follicles. During the procedure, the laser pulses for a fraction of a second, long enough to heat up the hair
and signficantly impede the follicle's ability to re-grow. This process also treats numerous hair follicles simultaneously. Therefore, LightSheerTM
is appropriate for treating even the largest area of the body both quickly and effectively.
An important part of the procedure is the cooling of the skin. A special contact-cooling handpiece allows your technician to treat even the most sensitive skin. It protects
and cools the uppoer layer of the skin before, during and after each laser pulse while directing the laser energy to the hair root.
