Hair Removal: How Does It Work?

Until now, hair removal of larger body areas has been considered too time-consuming by some and too painful by others.

High Speed LightSheer – Reduces Treatment Times up to 75% & Significantly Improves Comfort

The NEW High Speed LightSheer with its dramatically increased spot size of 22mm x 35mm combined with innovative vacuum-assist technology offers you an exciting treatment option for hair removal. This is great news for both men and women, since backs and legs can now be treated comfortably in about 15-20 minutes, with no need for topical anesthetics or messy treatment gel. 

The High Speed LightSheer produces a larger beam of highly concentrated light. The light emitted is well absorbed by the pigment located in the hair follicles (melanin). During the hair removal procedure, the laser pulses for a fraction of a second, allowing the hair to absorb the light and heat up. As the hair follicle heats up, the hair shaft and bulb are damaged. This significantly reduces the hair’s ability to re-grow, and results in permanent hair reduction over time. 

  • Dramatically increased treatment spot size for faster coverage
  • Vacuum-assist technology significantly improves treatment comfort
  • No topical anesthetic is required, which eliminates lengthy preparation
  • No treatment gel is used either, saving additional time and money
  • High Speed LightSheer reduces treatment times up to 75%

The LightSheer Duet also offers your physician the highly respected LightSheer ET with contact cooling for smaller treatment areas. Combining these two options on one versatile platform allows your practitioner to customize treatment to meet your individual needs.
