FAQ 

What Technology is Used? 

Soprano ICE: Platinum offers the synergistic benefits of the 3 most effective wavelengths for hair removal, each targeting different structures within the hair follicle.

​

Alex 755nm wavelength: Suitable for the widest hair types and colours. Alexandrite wavelength has the most powerful energy to absorb the melanin chromophore; substances that produce hair and skin pigmentation making it ideal for all skin types and colours – especially for thin and light-shaded hair. 

 

Speed 810nm wavelength: Cut off skin treatment time to half. It is a classic wavelength in laser hair removal that enters the deepest layers of hair follicles with high average power at a high repeating rate with a large 2-centimeter square spot size for treatment. These features of SPEED 810 NM WAVELENGTH make the procedure quicker and safer simultaneously.

​

YAG 1064nm wavelength: Most suitable for darker skin types. This wavelength is incorporated with the epidermal (outer coating of the two main layers of the skin) cooling devices that ensure little to no epidermal damage – making it the safest laser hair removal treatment for a person having olive to darker skin tones.\

 

How Many Treatments are Needed? 

For the best results, 6-12 sessions for permanent hair reduction. The hair growth cycle can vary between people, but often we recommend multiple sessions spread at least 4-6 weeks apart, the typical length of a hair-growth cycle. Waiting any longer than 6 weeks can affect your results as you may miss a hair growth cycle.

 

How Does the Laser Work? 

the laser light is converted to heat once it passes through the skin, and the heat is absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicles. Melanin is the dark pigment of the skin and hair. As melanin absorbs the light, the hair follicle is damaged and may not grow back again. This works by gradually heating the dermis (Skin) to a temperature that effectively damages the hair follicles and prevents re-growth while avoiding injury to the surrounding tissue.

​

Does it Hurt? 

The Soprano ICE platinum laser is known for being the most comfortable and effective laser removal system on the market. The system has a built-in cooling mechanism. It uses a sapphire cooling tip or a cold sapphire window to cool the skin during treatment. This cooling helps numb the skin and further reduces discomfort.

​

Does it Work on Dark Skin Tones? 

Unlike traditional laser hair removal devices, which are only safe to use on darker hair and lighter skin tones, Soprano ICE Platinum can be used on all skin colours, even tanned and dark skin.
