What is laser hair removal?

Both IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) such as laser diode They are two systems that work through electromagnetic waves of light. Depending on the length or color of these waves, we reach the root of each person's hair depending on their characteristics. The light is absorbed by the melanin in the body, and this is the only way we are able to completely destroy the hair root. Therefore, we can say that each of the techniques has a different length or color, and that is why in this blog we want to explain why on some occasions we say you use one type or another.

On the other hand, we can ensure that neither diode laser hair removal nor IPL laser hair removal are methods painless and absolute comfort, which in a few sessions allows you to remove hair permanently.

What does IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) do?

IPL technology consists of a high intensity pulsed light that contains different types of light. The most important for hair removal is the Red light, and also has a length of between 515 and 1200 mm. The procedure is different, it does not destroy the hair immediately, but it weakens throughout the sessions until it finally disappears. The wavelength is variable, so it allows the treatment to be carried out at all skin types, including sensitive skin. In addition, it increases its effectiveness by being able to remove light, blonde and red hair.

The only disadvantage of this method is that it cannot be done in times close to summer, since it is prudent to keep the skin out of contact with the sun for a few days. In addition, it loses effectiveness on tanned skin.

Why we use the diode laser

Unlike IPL technology, the diode only emits pure red light and has a wavelength of 810mm. It is a method that allows us to perform permanent hair removal quickly and easily. short term. But, due to its fixed features, which are not very customizable, it is likely that blonde or red hair will not be completely removed.

Of course, it is a method that can be done at all times of the year, it is even effective on tanned and dark skin. It is a very precise technique that has a great ability to penetrate the skin.
