The Laser Hair Removal, was a great invention, giving an easy way to permanent remove the unwanted hair, but after some years of using it there are a lot of known problems of using it.
Is a safe procedure if a qualified personal make the treatment... but lately a lot of clinics and hair removal business are buying just the machines without understand and well use of them, because they think first as a business before as a service...
Many of these business get very low profile personnel, making this very dangerous for the clients, a lot of clients have been burned and skin damaged and in some cases without return to their normal state.
A new technology has emerged to prevent this kind of bad procedures and burns in the skin, itґs called ELOS (IPL+RF) Intense Pulse Light and Radiofrequency, with this technique now, the light is not so high and dangerous, is using a Xenon lamp, with the radiofrequency that makes that the hair follicle receives better the light and then burn just it, not the skin or any other part of the body, itґs safer and it can work in any color of skin and hair including white hair.
Some business are now emerging with this new technology, and getting great results, so if you are considering doing a hair removal, forget laser and use IPL.
