Lumenis Lightsheer Diode

This System offers breakthrough features and distinctive advantages such as:

• The first system to provide permanent hair reduction using state-of-the-art, high-power diode technology
• Rapid, non-invasive treatment that is nearly pain-free and entails virtually no patient downtime.
• Treatment of all skin types (I-VI), as well as tanned skin and pseudofolliculitis barbae
• Successful treatment of leg veins and benign pigmented lesions.
• Patented ChillTip™ handpiece with a 9 or 12 mm square sapphire tip that actively cools before, during and after treatment pulses to minimize patient discomfort and enable the use of higher treatment fluences

Backed by long-term clinical data, the LightSheer™ system has the ability to permanently reduce hair growth and treat the entire range of skin colors and hair types. It has satisfied hundreds of thousands of patients and their providers worldwide.

Who is a Candidate?

The LightSheer diode laser system safely treats all skin types (Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-VI) as well as tanned skin. The LightSheer system is designed to be safe and effective for all skin types, including Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI as well as tanned skin. For darker skin types and people with tans, appropriate fluences are generally lower and appropriate pulse widths are generally longer to prevent damage to the epidermis. Using the appropriate treatment parameters, however, people with all skin types can benefit from laser hair removal with the LightSheer.

Safety and Side Effects

The laser uses a wavelength of light which passes through the skin. Unlike x-rays, there is no residual left in the body. Skin may appear pink or red after treatment. This disappears - in some cases after some minutes, in other cases after a few hours, or in still other cases, a few days. Use of cold packs will speed up the recovery time.

What About Recovery Time?

Here are some estimates which can give an approximate guide to how long the process will last:

• Back 1-2 hours
• Shoulders 10-20 minutes
• Underarms 1-2 minutes
• Bikini Line 8-10 minutes
• Upper lip less than 1 minute
• Chin 2-3 minutes
• Legs 1-2 hours
• At least 5 treatments are usually necessary.

Pain varies from person to person depending on their sensitivity. Some have described the sensation to a slight sting on the skin. Others say it feels like a pinch on the skin.
