 There is a better
solution for removing
unwanted hair
You may be surprised to learn that virtually your
entire body is covered with hair. Because most of
this hair is fine and pale, it usually isn’t visible to
the naked eye.
But, when darker, coarser hair appears in places
which make you uncomfortable, it may be time to
consider hair removal with LightSheer DUET.
Understanding
hair removal
In the past, remedies for unwanted hair included
plucking, shaving, waxing, electrolysis or chemical
depilatories. Some are painful. Some are messy,
and all are only temporary.
Laser hair removal is a more effective solution.
The High Speed LightSheer DUET uses state-ofthe-
art diode lasers with vacuum-assist technology
to remove unwanted hair and with greater speed
and comfort than other methods.
About the LightSheer
DUET laser treatment
The High Speed LightSheer DUET is a laser that
produces a larger beam of highly concentrated
light. The light emitted is well absorbed by the
pigment located in the hair follicles. During the
procedure, the laser pulses for a fraction of a
second, allowing the hair to absorb the light and
heat up. As it heats up, the hair shaft and bulb are
damaged which significantly impedes its ability to
re-grow. And with the large spot size, the process
treats numerous hair follicles simultaneously,
making the treatment much faster than traditional
laser hair removal alternatives.
The LightSheer DUET offers your physician two
handpiece choices depending on your needs.
The LightSheer High Speed handpiece uses
breakthrough vacuum assisted technology in
combination with diode laser light to allow rapid and comfortable treatment of large areas. A back
or legs can now be treated in 15 to 20 minutes,
without the need for topical numbing creams.
The LightSheer DUET also offers your physician
the gold standard LightSheer ET™ handpiece with
ChillTip® cooling for smaller areas. The LightSheer
DUET allows your physician to truly customize
treatment for your hair type, skin type and lifestyle.
What can you expect?
Laser hair removal requires multiple treatments.
This is because the laser works best when
hairs are in an early growth stage (referred to as
anagen), and all the hairs are not in this phase
at the same time.
The appearance of the treated area immediately
following treatment will vary from patient
to patient, depending on the extent of the
procedure and the skin type. Side effects are
rare and, if they do occur, are typically minor.
They may include redness and swelling around
the hair follicle, which are, in fact, positive
clinical results and indicate that the follicle has
responded to treatment. Most people return to
normal activity right away.
Our practice is pleased to offer the High Speed
LightSheer DUET for permanent hair reduction with exciting speed and amazing comfort. Ask your physician to tell you more about your treatment, possible side-effects and what results you can expect during your consultation.
