What is Diode Laser?

Diode lasers use semiconductor technology that provides a consistent reflection of the light in the visible and infrared ranges (300-3,000nm). It uses a narrow spectrum light beam that targets specific chromophores of the skin. Compared to other laser systems such as Ruby and Alexandrite, the 800nm diode laser wavelength for hair removal offers deep penetration levels and superior melanin absorption. These unique features allow diode lasers to be one of the most suitable technologies for hair removal, and to treat all skin and hair types safely and effectively in all body areas.

How Do Diode Lasers Work?

Diode lasers use the principle of selective photo thermolysis (SPTL) to target skin-specific chromophores, usually melanin or blood. The laser selectively damages the chromophores by heating, without damaging the surrounding tissues. For example, when treating unwanted hair, melanin in hair follicles is targeted and damaged. This causes deterioration in hair growth and regeneration. Generally, diode lasers increase the treatment effectiveness and patient comfort with its internal cooling technology. Diodes with state of the art technology are extremely comfortable and pain-free.

Beautyform Medical Diode Laser Solution?
