Diode hair removal

Diode hair removal is one of the types of laser hair removal. The protection of the skin from the negative effects of powerful rays is provided by the sapphire optics, which the device is equipped with. Thanks to the diode, hair removal occurs pointwise, which increases the effectiveness of the procedure, reducing the risk of side effects.

Diode hair removal procedure

Diode hair removal is suitable if you have:

• there are ingrown hairs;
• sensitive delicate skin on which allergies appear after shaving;
• dark coarse hairs that grow back quickly after epilation;
• allergy to the components of wax or sugaring, as well as cream.

Diode hair removal helps to achieve:

• complete absence of hairs after several sessions;
• absolute removal of ingrown hairs;
• the disappearance of age spots that remain after ingrown hair.

The day before the procedure, you must shave the epilated area with a razor. Since for the procedure, the hair length should not exceed 1 mm. It is also worth refusing to apply creams and lotions. The hair removal procedure itself is as follows:

1. The master treats the skin area with lidocaine for pain relief.
2. The client lies down on a couch and puts on special goggles over his eyes.
3. The specialist begins the hair removal procedure by treating the area with a laser. Do not be alarmed if you smell burnt hair during epilation, this is quite normal.
4. If hairs are epilated on a small area of ​​the body, then it will take about 15 minutes, but large areas take up to 4 hours.

At home, diode epilation should never be done. To do this, you need to have an expensive device and a lot of experience in working with it. Otherwise, irreversible sad consequences may arise.

Diode hair removal - contraindications

Despite all its advantages, diode hair removal has a number of contraindications:

• the presence of a fresh tan (before the epilation procedure, you cannot tan for 2 weeks);
• diabetes;
• colds;

Which laser hair removal is better: diode or alexandrite

To decide which hair removal is best, you need to compare the pros and cons of each.

From the comparative table, it is clear that for the most part, the criteria for both epilation are similar, but still designed for different types of hair. If only dark hair can be removed with the help of a diode, then alexandrite is more versatile, although it is not suitable for very light hair. Therefore, to say which of the lasers would be better would be incorrect, each is good, but only in its own area.
