You've likely seen this laser hair removal device all over your social feeds, and for good reason. For starters, “it’s quick and easy to use with three sensitivity modes—normal, gentle, or extra gentle—so it’s less painful than other products on the market,” says Gloria Lin, MD, a board-certified dermatologist in New York City. Glamour contributor Brigitt Earley, couldn't agree more. In just 10 to 15 minutes, she tackled her armpits, legs, and bikini line. “It didn't hurt at all,” she says. “Maybe a tiny zing here and there, but nothing even remotely significant. And there's only one big button to press. If you hold it down, it'll even deliver continuous flashes, so you can complete large areas like legs in, well, a flash.”
Braun promises results in as little as four weeks, and this time frame was spot-on in Earley's testing. “After weekly treatments for four weeks, 99% of my hair had stopped growing completely,” she says. Also nice: It comes with a precision head attachment for the bikini area, a Venus razor to aid with pre-laser-hair-removal, and a storage pouch.

The selection of the most appropriate laser wavelength is essential as it enables
Laser Pulse Width (Shutter speed)
The selection of the appropriate pulse width is essential as it enables the operator to target hairs of different diameters.
Often as a course of laser hair removal progresses, the follicles miniaturize and hair becomes finer requiring a reduction in pulse width to ensure continued effective treatment.
Laser Spot Size
Small spot sizes are most effective for the treatment of smaller superficial hair follicles, while larger spot sizes are ideal for deeper targets. The larger the spot size the deeper the laser penetration.
Bigger spot sizes also enable the operator to rapidly treat larger body areas with comfort and ease.
Superior results are hence achieved with a large range of different spot sizes.
Spot Size and Depth of Optical Penetration
Laser Power (Fluence)
The more powerful the laser the better the outcome. Any cheap low powered laser system can induce a temporary hair loss lasting between 1-3 months. Permanent hair reduction requires high quality lasers that can produce the large amounts of power needed to heat the follicle to 65-70 degrees centigrade ensuring irreversible damage to the hair.
Gold Standard hair removal lasers should be capable of delivering the following types of energy.
The use of high quality lasers with variable wavelengths, variable pulse durations, variable spot sizes and variable fluences enable a skilled laser operator to achieve far superior results.
Irrespective of the hair colour, skin colour, hair thickness or follicle depth we have a laser for all prospective clients.
The majority of clinics in the UK utilize IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) to deliver hair removal. This is often incorrectly termed Laser Hair Removal (An IPL device is not a laser it is a light source) and described as the superior method of hair removal.
It is clinically proven that IPL is as a rule far less effective at a given task than a laser dedicated to that purpose.
A high quality laser must be accompanied by a skilled operator for superior results.
