What is SmartDiode Laser?
It is a certified medical grade diode laser for the application of superfast hair removal for all
skin types on the Fitzpatrick scale. Endorsed by leading medical experts it is safe and highly
effective in the treatment of permanent hair reduction. With pre-set aesthetic and
professional modes based on the area being treated and your skin type, technicians have
the ability to deliver treatments safely and effectively.
How Does it Work
Selective thermolysis is when specifically selected wavelengths of laser light are pulsed into
the skin and absorbed by the darker pigment (melanin) in the hair shaft. This light energy is
converted into heat which is transferred into the hair follicle damaging the follicle and
inhibiting future hair growth. Up to a maximum of 30% of follicles can be terminated per
treatment.
Can it treat white hair?
No. The SmartDiode lasers rely on a pigment to absorb light energy and convert it into heat
energy. As white hair has no colour pigment, it is unable to work effectively
How Long Does it Take
Using revolutionary ‘slide & glide’ delivery a SMARTDiode treatment is completed in
minutes. The treatment applicator is swept back and forth repeatedly across the designated
area whist rapid pulses of low energy light are pulsed into the skin ensuring full coverage
and effective treatment.
Does it Hurt?
Unlike traditional laser or IPL, using high energy levels that may cause discomfort and pain, a
SMARTDiode treatment is gentle and comfortable, resulting in a pleasant warming of the
skin. Active skin cooling through the applicator ensures complete comfort even in the most
sensitive areas.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Each SMARTDiode treatment effects approximately 30% of the hair within the target area.
We recommend a minimum of 6 treatments, with some hair types requiring more. The
average for a successful program is 8 treatments.
