How Does Laser Hair Removal Work?

Laser hair removal is a process in which a laser beam — in this case, a diode — is directed to a hair follicle in its growth phase. The high-intensity beam of light is attracted to the dark pigment of the hair. The light (energy) travels down the hair shaft to the follicle, the area that produces the hair, and effectively destroys it without damaging the surrounding skin.

The 800HRP is a diode laser designed to provide accelerated results with minimal discomfort. The machine contains two cooling systems.
