At Image Renewal the safety and overall satisfaction of our clients comes first.
We use state-of-the-art, medical-grade, equipment to help you achieve the safest
and best possible results. Removing unwanted hair often results in increased
self-confidence. Self-consciousness is replaced with a convenient, shave-free,
lifestyle that truly makes a difference inside & out.
Our Technology
We perform laser hair removal using a medical-grade laser called the LightSheer Diode,
the first FDA approved laser for safe, effective, and permanent hair removal. The
LightSheer Laser
has long-term, clinical data that documents its ability to permanently reduce hair
growth for female and male clients with a range of skin colours and hair types. It
can also safely remove hair from all parts of the body (except eyebrows - see
Advanced Electrolysis).
The laser produces a beam of highly concentrated, near-infrared light that is absorbed
by the skin's pigment via the hair follicles. Our Certified Laser Technician pulses
the laser for a fraction of a second, just long enough to vaporize the pigment in
the hair and disable the future hair growth without damaging the surrounding skin.
One of the benefits of the LightSheer Diode is the patented, built-in, Chill Tip. This
provides contact cooling to the skin, prior to the laser pulses through the skin. It
works to protect the upper layer of skin and enables the laser's energy to travel
deeper into the hair follicle. Essentially, its job is to make sure your treatment
is safe, comfortable, and effective. In addition, for highly sensitive areas our
clients will benefit from our Synercool technology, which cools the treated area
alongside the LightSheer Diode tip.
What To Expect ...
For most clients , achieving desired results, requires 5-8 treatments. In some
cases there may be an occasional touch-up required over an extended period of
time. Any hair left on the treated area thereafter is typically much lighter and
finer than the original hair.
Regular treatments, spaced 4-10 weeks apart, are necessary for optimal results.
Different areas require different treatment schedules. In most cases, you will
be asked to shave the area the night before your treatment. You will also have
the option of applying Dr.Numb, an anaesthetic numbing cream, to the area prior
to treatment to minimize any potential discomfort. For your convenience, Dr.Numb
is available for purchase at Image Renewal.
