WHAT IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL?

Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a concentrated beam of light (laser) to remove unwanted hair.

During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth, leading to permanent hair removal.

For at least one month following treatment, you should apply high-factor sun protection (SPF 30>), and protect the treated area from exposure to direct sunlight for at least one month post-treatment. Tanning after laser treatments may enhance melanin regeneration that can result in hyper-pigmentation.

Makeup may be applied on the day following treatments due to the skin being sensitive.

If blisters occur, do not puncture. If skin is broken, apply an antibiotic ointment until healed.

Tylenol is recommended for post-treatment discomfort.

Avoid using seat warmers immediately after treatment.

Is hair removal with Soprano ICE Platinum really painless?

Soprano ICE Platinum uses Alma Laser’s SHR method, which is the only clinically proven method of laser hair removal that is virtually painless. The unique heating and energy delivery method effectively damages the hair follicle while preventing injury and pain to the surrounding tissue. At the same time, integrated ICETM tech cools the skin surface, preventing superficial burns and the sensation of pain.

Is hair removal with Soprano ICE Platinum safe?

Absolutely. Soprano ICE’s SHR method has been proven in multiple clinical studies as the safest method of laser hair removal for all skin types. With SHR, hair follicles are damaged not by a single pulse of high energy which can injure the skin, but by repetitive short energy pulses. These pulses produce heat build-up which gradually raises the temperature of the dermis to the level needed for preventing hair growth, while minimizing the risk of burns.

Is hair removal with Soprano ICE Platinum safe for dark skin?

Yes. While the melanin in dark skin is exponentially more sensitive to the heat used in laser treatment, Soprano ICE’s SHR method has been clinically proven to be safe for dark skin types. Rather than exposing the hair follicle to a single high-energy pulse which can cause trauma to dark skin, SHR gradually heats the skin until the required heat energy is delivered to the hair follicle.

Can Soprano ICE Platinum be used in the summer and can it treat tanned skin?

Yes. Soprano ICE’s SHR method affects the melanin of the skin using a unique method, allowing the procedure to be performed anytime of the year as well as on tanned skin. Furthermore, sun exposure is less traumatic to the skin following SHR treatment.

How long are treatment sessions with Soprano ICE Platinum?

While Soprano ICE Platinum offers the fastest laser hair removal solution available today, the duration of treatment can vary depending on the patient’s skin color, hair type and the area being treated. Treatment time can range from a few seconds for a small area such as above the upper lip, to 8 minutes for the entire back.

How many treatments are typically needed in order to see results?

Depending on the patient’s skin and hair type, results are typically seen following 6 to 8 treatment sessions. Individual treatment prices are offered, however it’s most economical to purchase the treatment in a series.
