Permanent & Painless Hair Removal

| by doctorursel | August 26, 2008
Do you take a rough approach to smooth skin? Now there’s a truly better
way to remove hair compared to tedious and/or painful procedures such as shaving
and waxing.

Palomar’s revolutionary Starlux IPL System clears away unwanted hair quickly,
comfortably, and safely, with long-lasting results. Developed in conjunction
with leading medical researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital, the Palomar
Starlux is the IPL (Intense Pulse Light)to remove hair safely and effectively
from all types of skin, including Asian, African American, Latin American, and
even tanned skin.

Older Methods of Removing Hair

Shaving:
Shaving is a simple procedure... but it’s also messy and time consuming. Plus,
it’s only a temporary solution, one that requires a constant commitment. (And
who needs nicks and cuts?)

Tweezing:
Ouch! This quick fix is not only painful... it’s extremely impractical for large
areas! And, if you’ve ever tweezed, you know that the hair you pluck will only
grow back again.

Electrolysis:
This procedure involves sticking a needle into each hair follicle and applying
an often painful electric current. In expert hands, electrolysis can
successfully eliminate hair. But because you can treat only one hair follicle at
a time, it’s a tedious and time-consuming process that is best reserved for very
small, isolated areas.

Permanent Hair Removal with the
Palomar Starlux IPL System

The Starlux System is designed to provide both maximum results and a pleasant
experience for the patient. Once the patient is sitting or lying in a
comfortable position, the operator gently placse the cooling handpiece on the
skin. The handpiece delivers pulses of energy to the hair follicles. This energy
heats the follicles, disabling them or even eliminating their ability to produce
hair. Before, during, and after each pulse of the IPL, the handpiece actively
cools the skin, protecting it from damage.

Until now, treating persons with dark or tanned skin has been a problem because
the pigment in such skin absorbs enough of the laser energy to cause
considerable side effects and discomfort. However, the Starlux Technology makes
Painless Hair Removal
available for everyone.
