FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Advanced Fluorescent Light Hair Removal?
Advanced fluorescent technology is a new long term hair removal method.
A client sits of lies in a comfortable position, and then a technical
glides a wand-like tool, or handpiece, over his or her skin. The
handpiece emits a beam of specially filtered light, which is absorbed
by the hair and converted to heat. This heat disintegrates the
hair and disables the hair follicle. Is the treatment safe?
Yes, it is very safe. Some people may experience mild reddening of
the treatment area for a day or so after the treatment, but other
complications are rare. The Advanced Fluorescent Technology delivers
energy to the skin very gently. Plus, the Zimmer cooling system
extracts heat from the skin during each pulse of light for maximum
protection. Does it hurt?
No. The light is selectively absorbed by the hair and hair follicles.
The skin itself is exposed to very little heat. Plus, no irritating
chemicals are used, and the hairs aren’t pulled on in any
way. We add cooled gel and the Zimmer cooling system. How long does the hair stay away?
Hair may never return at all. The exact amount of time that the hair
stays away depends on the area being treated, the settings selected
by the technician, and individual hair and skin factors. Depending
on the settings used by the technician in accordance with the client
request, hair removal may either be permanent or for a certain
period of time. Repeat when it becomes visible again. What body areas can be treated?
Almost any area of the body can be treated: the legs, back, upper
lip, chin, underarms, back of the neck, bikini line, etc. Do I have to let my hair grow out be a certain length before I can
get treated?
No, it has to be shaved prior to treatments and no UV (sunlight)
3 weeks pre and post treatment.
