used permaICE Quattro

The permaICE Quattro is a multi wavelength diode laser offer the latest technology with 4 wavelengths in one handpiece. The high powered energy is delivered simultaneously to the skin targeting different structures within the hair follicle.

The simultaneous laser delivery of multi wavelengths is paramount to achieving the best possible results. (808nm, 755nm, 1064nm and 940nm).

The 3 main target areas are the Bulge, Bulb and Papilla.

• The 808nm wavelength can reach the dermal papilla which is deep penetration of the hair follicle. 808nm has a moderate melanin absorption making it relatively safe for all skin types including darker skins (except skin type 6). Its deep penetration capabilities target also the bulb and bulb of the hair follicle.
• The Alexandrite 755nm wavelength offers more powerful energy absorption by melanin making it ideal for most hair types and hair colour and is especially useful for lighter hairs and thinner hairs. The 755nm wavelength targets the bulge of the hair follicle.
• The Nd:Yag 1064nm wavelength is characterized by lower melanin absorption making it more focused for darker skin types. The Nd:Yag also offers the deepest penetration for the hair follicle allowing it to target the bulb and Papilla. Higher water absorption generates a higher temperature increasing the thermal profile of the laser treatment for most effective hair removal.
• DIODE 940nm WAVELENGTH
  The Diode laser 940nm has a characteristic to reach deep and it is possible to remove hair efficiently.
  It is a medical laser that is effective in eliminating inflammation.

The combination of the these characteristics with the correct pulse duration ensures thermal damage to the target tissues of the hair follicle leaving the surrounding tissues unaffected.

By providing the correct energy density it ensures energy output is strong enough and long enough to damage the target tissue. The use of epidermal protection in the form of cooling ensures the protection of the patient during the treatmen
